New house!
Front of house
I’m all moved into my new house! It’s finally all furnished and filled with my crap stuff.
People have been asking me for pictures, so here they are! Before and after (the moving process) shots.
The thumbnails go through to big pictures, so be warned if you click through! Ignore the dates on them – Mum has yet to sort out the date feature on her camera and it decided it was February all on its own.
Office - before
Office - after
The first room is supposed to be the dining room, but I wanted/needed an office space for writing (and, okay, playing games on the PC).
It has my old desk in there at the moment, but there’s a new one turning up sometimes this week – I ordered it yesterday. Somehow, I managed to need more space than the old desk could provide!
On the plus side, I managed to get all my bookcases in there. They are now filled with varying levels of geekiness.
Lounge - before
Lounge - after
Lounge next – not much to say about that. Have couches and telly and lovely speakers. All hooked up for movies and music streaming.
Needs a rug, I think. I haven’t hung any pictures up yet, but will do soon. (That’s my mum in the first picture, in case you were wondering.)
Bedroom - before
Bedroom - after
The bedroom is a good size – I got lucky there. Managed to squeeze in a decent-sized bed and enough furniture to hide all my clothes.
There’s a huge built-in wardrobe, which helps. Now all I have to do is keep it tidy. Wonder how long that will last!
Kitchen
Bathroom
The kitchen is a comfy little place, with everything I need (including a coffee machine you can’t see in this pic.
And yes, okay, more geekery. Shush. They’re handy shelves and I had to put something there!
The bathroom is a bathroom. ‘Nuff said. Water’s hot, towels are fluffy, and it’s just a stumble from the bedroom. The loo is separate – oddly, attached to the back of the house, so I have to go out the kitchen door to get to it. A little weird, but the kind of weird I’m willing to put up with.
Back yard
There is a curious back yard to this place – lots of fronds and trees, with a gazebo and a washing line hidden in there. This pic is of the gazebo side. I have yet to furnish it; that’ll wait until the spring when it becomes interesting and useful (and warmer).
So there you go! A little tour around my new place. Still some work to do on it, but it’s comfortable enough to be going on with. I’m happy with it. 🙂
