After the good reaction I got when I posted in GD I thought I'd make a little build log from start to finish.
It's been about two years in the making since first applying for planning permission.
Luckily I didn't need to go down the self-build mortgage route as the devlopment company were footing the bill until the complete certificate was issued.
The development company let me chose what ever I wanted.
So I set up a meeting with the builders they were using and told them what I wanted (double height ceiling and windows in lounge with upper mezz level and a huge garage. Gave them my budget and they took it to their architect and here we are.
As it stands just now there is 3 bedrooms, 1 study, 1 Shower room + an ensuite.
Future plans is to add more bedrooms(cinema maybe) and a huge bathroom in the space above the utility and garage. There's approx 67 Sq/m to use up there.
The only problem I have now is deciding on furniture.
I'll let the photos do the talking.
