So close

No I did not die nor go into hiding of any kind. Here's what we've been super busy with!

The end is so near I can almost smell it.

After the roller coaster ride we went through to get this place, the stress and energy spent during the entire renovation process, we're almost there. Almost. My hope is that we can move in in time to celebrate AK's upcoming big day.

Front facade before - note the angular side wall

The back

The dry kitchen, which has sliding doors that open to the teeny wet kitchen

The front extension - our contractor removed the pesky angular wall, pushed the door out and centralized our windows. I love my big windows!

View from the inside. Oh, and note the plaster ceiling. We decided to only do the sides, to keep the ceiling as high as possible

The back extension added an indoor drying cum storage area and made my wet kitchen HUGE

Wet kitchen after the extension.

We used Niro Granite wood plank lookalike tiles for the countertop and grey volcanic stone-like wall and floor tiles

A lighter colour scheme for the guest bath
