Its off (extension) the back lounge. 
 
We're turning that room into a master bedroom, with the old kitchen being changed to an en-suite. The external door has been half bricked up in granite and a new window fitted.

been busy painting the last few days.... 
 
all the huge skirtings and facings in the hall, hope to give it a 2nd coat of emulsion to tidy it up for now too. 
 
Kitchen. Given the door jams/shuts a coat of black gloss, as i didnt like the look of the white of the carcase showing through when you look at it straight on.

The whole place looks amazing. 
You've turned it around a treat. 
 
Are you still under the 20K budget btw? 
Looks like you've spent loads on it all.

the power and aerial are behind the wall. The co-ax is now channelled, the power is routed of ring and goes ^. Mounted a fused switch behind the TV to switch on/off ... a bit more discreet the a plug
