Can't believe we have reached practical completion, moved our stuff back in, had Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day (including the big REVEAL to Margaret & Brian) and several other inspections and Christian has not uploaded any final photos.

Very disappointing but soon to be rectified I hope.

The house did not feel like ours to begin with but we are getting there now. One night we could not go to bed as the house looked so lovely and was just so livable. Now most stuff is unpacked, although there are still a few boxes to be retrieved (thank you Rob for the storage). We now realise just how much we need the island bench that is an integral part of Stage II as are lacking a lot of storage for small kitchen stuff. But if we lived in the pre-reno state for 5 years, we can cope with limited storage and a small deck for 2-3 years.
