You can now see this house from space at night

all that Hard work ! I hope it pays off

before I started

some preperation work complete, but essentially a bare canvas.

Amazing what a lick of paint and 20+ tubes of no more gaps (wonderful stuff for the dado boards and all those non wet areas) will do. Flat pack kitchen cost around $1200. Curtains and lounge covering by my very talented wife.Exit the daggy beige carpet and hello to some wonderful cyprus pine...

It isn't a big building (about 5.5m x 8 m) so we had to make the most of what space we had. It started out as a bare shell. No water to main building and no hot water or sewer, only the old septic.

This is as we bought the Church. The non-opening north facing window definately had to go. Time for a major face lift!

The church needed more living space.A square deck would have been more spacious, but aesthetically detracting. The final solution was alot more labour intensive (including the 3 skylights) but far more attractive. Note the addition of the 3.5 m double door for access and more light.
