En Suite entrance and basin: The basin will stand above a hard piece of wood with taps and spout just above it. The bath will have about 20cm tiled area around it and the taps for it will be built into the wall at the foot of the bath - this as a result of nowhere else easily accessible to reach them! If they were in front of the bath one would have to ascend stairs and stretch across it on all fours to reach - an odd position to be in. The doors will be installed this week, and the fittings completed. I imagine we're anpother two weeks away from completion. I will update more frequently from now on.

New En Suite Bathroom: The last of the first set of renovations! Apologies for not having updated for so long, but I took a break and went abroad. The ceiling of this new bathroom also took some time to set. Front left hand corner will be a free standing basin; beneath the window the bath will be built in and raised enough to have three steps to get into it - flanked on either end by a wall. The walls will separate it from the basin area, and the shower at the top. The shower will be open - no glass, just a sloped floor. Above the basin and shower are skylights. Top right where the water pipes come in will be a toilet. Once all the fittings are done the wall on the right, leading to the bedroom, will be completely removed. Where I'm standing will be sliding wooden doors.
