Home Tour

We took Lilbigbro LB) and USsinlaw (UL) to see the new house in the daylight. I have so many ideas that I’m struggling to focus on the essential jobs.  Our first job is to replace the boiler G.O has done a bit of research and has decided that the Hive boiler system from British Gas, while expensive it is connected to the Alexa voice control system when it is up and running we will be able to use our Alexa to turn the heating on and off.  Until then I can control the heat from my phone, oh the power.
One with the tour, photos courtesy of USsinlaw, as I was so busy I forgot to take some.

The house is a detached house in Lancashire, with four bedrooms and three baths.



I am slightly overwhelmed by home ownership but can’t wait to get my hands on the place.

The decor is worn ninties but nothing seems to be urgently replaced apart from the boiler.  Which the previous owner told us about.

The house is decorated with magnolia in most  rooms.  The floors are laminate with the exception of the stairs, landing and guest rooms which have a badly soiled carpet.  Which we were going to replace but have instead found a company that will clean them for £50.

The bathroom has been painted which some shiny grey paint, and the bath has some scratches (to my untrained eye it looks like a dog has been washed in the bath and scratched  up the enamel).

The previous owners had left the whole bedroom set, I’ve decided to keep it and move it to the guest room, we will replace the mattress, but it all seems quite nice.

The exterior need some TLC and the rockery needs some serious attention that is my plan for spring, once I have raided Pinterest for ideas.
