It seems unbelievable to type this, but the Steve's mum has been living under us in her newly built Nana Flat for three weeks now! We moved her in on a Friday night (one trip with the moving truck from John's place to here (good work boys!)), just before the builders wrapped up, thankfully avoiding moving on a very rainy weekend.
As you stand on the patio, you can see the kitchen/dining straight ahead. There are curtains up now (for obvious reasons), but I love how open and bright that space has the potential to be.
I took these photos just before the truck with all the stuff arrived, so it's not perfectly complete (cupboard doors aren't on, oven's not in), but you can get the idea about what it looks like. Here's the kitchen.
And when you turn and look back out, you can see the patio. Beyond that, when I took these photos, it was all mud. We have since laid some turf, but I'll save that picture for our next update.It was a bit surreal after so long waiting for it to be done (and living through all the delays!) but such a relief and excitement when it was finished. The next photo is taken from the dining room corner of the kitchen. The bathroom is behind that kitchen wall, the doorway in front is the bedroom, and around the half wall to the right is the living room.
Lastly, this is the very big bathroom, which also doubles as the laundry, though the washing machine isn't there yet.
Maria has settled in, and so I won't be sharing any more inside photos of her place now. She has really made it her place, and we are happy that she is comfortable there and it's great to see her making it her own.
The general renovations have continued a bit longer, finishing up things inside the Nana Flat and outside around the house, so we have a little ways to go yet, but it's great to know that this bit is now complete.
