Home improvements by the sea

For several years now my wife and I have been unsatisfied with the size of our kitchen. When we first bought our house we were won over by the beautiful views over the cliffs and out towards the sea and overlooked the size and shape of the interior of the house. Now we have lived in therefore a few years the walls have started to close in and we are overcome with a need for more space. With two teenage daughters, two cats and a dog the house is often a very busy place and when the girls have friends over for dinner (which seems to be almost every night) the kitchen is inevitably the busiest room.

We have managed to fit some lovely features into the kitchen despite the size but I can’t help feeling that the blue Smeg fridge and the lovely Aga would be better displayed in more majestic surroundings.

Considering the current market I have come to the decision that it would be unwise to move house and also regrettable to lose the fantastic view so we have decided on the compromise of a conservatory. I have purchased the relevant building tools to make a start on the foundations myself (as I used to build as a trade many years ago) and I have got an architect from a well known conservatory company to design something suitable for my home.

Only thing left to do now is apply for the planning permission and away we go!
