This post won’t be of interest to everyone but I know a few of you will appreciate a nose around our new house :)

We aren’t moving in until the kids finish school at the end of June which is a blessing because as you can see there is A LOT to do.

I’m toying with the idea of throwing a painting party, many drunk hands make light work…. or something…

Apologies if the movement makes you nauseous :/

Love it. Living room is a great space. Gardens are big!

Carpets pure boke! Was it an old granny in it before?

Really nice place!

Lots of birdsong! I'm jealous – it's so exciting having a (well, almost) blank canvas to make your own! and bloody hell those gardens are massive!

Has tons of potential – rooms seem massive although you wouldn't think it from the outside!

It's really deceptive from the front. Tardis house :)

Such a nice spacious house! My parents house (my childhood house) is a bungalow so I am very fond of them :) xox

I think I'll find it really odd, on the plus side I don't have to worry about the kids playing tag on the stairs anymore. 1 less stress :D

I can't wait to give the house some new memories. It's crying out for the screams and laughter of children running about that garden having fun xox

You will make a lovely family home out of this house. It's lovely too that your Grandads house will be staying in the family! Enjoy your project x

New pad is amazing – so much potential – Gardens are lush and that kitchen light! You'd pay a fortune for one of them now! Woo!

I was mentally decorating in my head as I watched the vid ha ha x

What a lovely house! I don't know what it is about bungalows but I do love the long hallway down the middle. Some family friends recently switched from an upside down house (bedrooms downstairs/kitchen & living room upstairs) to a bungalow and its lovely. The hallway has slate tiles and the walls are cherry red – its stunning.

That back garden is going to be awesome in the summer if we get some decent weather, I see BBQs in your future xx
