You can see that they are just starting to build the walls in the lower part of the house.

You can see that it's going up with some speed! The roof is starting to take shape. All solid brick walls. Out of Persimmon and Charles Church, Redrow only seem to use sold brick.

Not much change after one week. But more work to the roof and some white flashing.
26 February 2011
An awful lot has happened in the last week. The roof is finished and the windows and doors are in. I guess this is the stage where they call it 'water tight' and work can begin inside. Funny how a house looks more like a house with windows and doors. :)

The scaffolding is down, the render is on and this was the day we were allowed to go in.One of the most exciting days of my life! The house seemed so much bigger than we had anticipated. Just love that plaster and wood smell of a new house. Inside will be covered in a different post.

The exteriorofthe house is almost complete but the garage still needs a door! They've started to 'landscape' the garden and lay some paving slabs.
26 March 2011
The plastering is going on and so the windows are open for 'airing'.

Some pictures of the weeny garden and the back of the house. And some more gratuitous pictures of the facade because I love it! :)
Sometime in 2012
We never took a final picture of the finished house. But here's one I took in 2012.
