Your place looks stellar! I also like the dutch things and the little klm houses😁
Cheers Miki. My wife is Dutch hence the little KLM houses and the flag, orange egg chair etc :-)
Toby, thanks for your generous comments. Those side tables are from a UK company called Bluesuntree. I just had a look but I can’t see them on their website any longer but perhaps I’m missing it.. have a look. They have some nice stuff.
Thanks Brian, thanks for getting back to me, shame teh tables are still not avalible. The search continues!
Great thread and love the upstairs as well, you must be so happy with the finish, such a great space and such attention to details.
Next week come to the dressing room, off the Master bedroom. This was originally a separate small bedroom with a door off the landing to the right as you come up the stairs:
This is the same angle after conversion:
We blocked up the door entrance with a stud wall:
Here the door is blocked off behind the little french chair and table:
This was the original little bedroom:
Again, I wanted to utilize the voids next to the dormer so we reconfigured the roof supporting struts and built in some Ikea drawer units:
Underfloor heating laid, painting done:
Oak flooring laid and drawer units completed:
2 identical Ikea drawer units merged together with an oak desktop to match the floor and the drawer units in the voids:
Open shelving at the back wall and wardrobes to the left constructed by cutting down some Ikea units and fitting it all together:
We broke through from the master bedroom corner and created an entrance directly into the dressing room. Excuse the rather bad photo.
I placed a grey Beoplay M3 on the drawer unit under the window:
The last room to feature is the en-suite bathroom off the Master bedroom. I will put together the photos shortly and post. Thanks for watching to those who aren't yet completely bored of all my photos 😮
The en-suite bathroom looked like this before stripping down:
Gutted, block walls removed and replaced with stud walls to hide all pipe work and drains:
Ready for cement boarding and tiling:
Tiling:
.. and the finished result finally:
I found the perfect spot for a Beosound 2 🙂
This then completes the inside house renovation. The outside insulation and brick slips from Belgium are due next month when work continues outside, after which we can complete the outside fireplace wall, lay 80 m2 hardwood decking and fit an outside 'kitchen'
Once that is completed this year I will start to demolish the garage building in the spring, it will receive the same amount of attention; new roof, a small extension allowing separate access to the upstairs guestroom and widened garage doors to allow access for wider cars. A Beoplay A6 for the garage and a Beoplay S3 for the guestroom are already sitting in my loft.
Once that is completed we finish with the driveway landscaping, gates etc. I will resurrect this thread in due course to add photos stories of the remaining works. That's all for now folks, I hope some of you have enjoyed the journey 🙂
I’ve really enjoyed this thread Brian. Your house looks amazing. Great design yet it also looks easy to live in. Please keep posting picture as you do further work.

Thank you for the kind words. I will keep taking photos and post in due course. As you can probably imagine all the photos so far have been collated over the past year and a half.
Amazing project - indeed.
What will you do, when you have finished all 😉
