Framing up!

Despite the wintry weather, the wall frames are up.  It gives you an idea for the first time of what the house will look like and what it will be like to live in.  Pretty brilliant, I’m thinking!  So here is a bit of a walk-through.

Here to begin with are a few shots of the house from a distance.  It gives you a bit of an idea of how it looks in the context of the site.  It sits up there rather well, I thought.

Now here are some views closer up. The first is the view along the front room, looking north. The second is the view along the west side, through the bedrooms, also looking north.

Here are the bedrooms: one very cosy (!), the other more extended:

And this is looking out the main front windows to the east:

And finally one looking through the middle of the house west to east:

So there we are!  The roof will go on in the next few days, if the weather allows; then the windows, depending on when they are due to be delivered.

It really is rather wonderful to see it taking shape–uplifting, I would say!–after all this time and work.
