The NEW House!
This is a short entry for this week’s Alphabe-Thursday because it is a story that is just starting. The letter this week is ‘N’ and I have chosen NEW so that I can share the excitement of a NEW house.
Now, I’d love to move but at our time of life it is not likely that hubby and I will summon up the energy needed for such a project. Instead, we hope to share in the adventure our DS and his wife have just embarked on. They have bought their first home together and what a project it will be!
It looks like any normal house doesn’t it but the ladder and the keen eyes of father-in-law should give you a hint! It has needed to be almost gutted inside and the windows are to be replaced. The garden was a jungle and the previous owners chickens (!) have caused a few problems with other tiny visitors – mice!
As I said, it is a real project but the youngsters have already done a lot to it and we are all excited about this next adventure for them. No doubt I shall be able to report back here at regular intervals to tell you of their progress. In the meantime, pop along HERE to see their story so far!
It’s not only an achievement for a young couple to buy their first house together but to be able to bring it up to standard together helps bond a couple to the house they achieve. Good luck to both of them. The house has great potential. 🙂
Sounds like a fun project and the house is adorable!
It may need a lot of work, but it looks a very smart house! It’ll be great when it’s done 🙂
I adore houses…old and new! And this one looks really niftily charming!
How exciting to get your first home. Mine was sooo many long years ago I’ve almost forgotten!
I appreciate this joyful link this week.

It’s super cute and how much fun for them to settle in to their first home! Yeah~!
Nothing more exciting, particularly as a bystander if it’s a big dirty job!

Ahh yes, these types of projects are best left to the young for sure! It will be worthwhile when they get the work done…
Congratulations on your new house!
Looks pretty nice from the outside. I’m sure it will be wonderful once everything has been completed.
Thanks for sharing. 😉
It looks like a very nice house with good bones as they say. I’m sure it will be wonderful someday. Best wishes to the kids.
I haven’t done Jenny’s AT for ages and miss it, love the new house Im sure many happy moments will be spent there, once the mice have left of course 🙂
Of course! They weren’t part of the sale – you know ‘sitting tenants’!
I’m looking forward to your new adventures!!
a first home is always exciting. Good for them!
Love the roof – hope it lasts {:-Deb
Replacing roofs is an expensive item so fingers crossed!
I love the house! Starting out is such fun and so wonderful!
It’s such an adventure isn’t it. If only we knew it was, we might take a little more notice to revel in it maybe! Lovely to see you here!
Looks beautiful ! Our son too just bought a house, but there is only the floor to be replaced and the walls repainted. So not too much to do.
Congrats to the young couple !
Thank you so much. It is so exciting!
I love the house. Good luck to them fixing it up.
Thank you! I’ll send your good wishes to them! Many thanks for visiting!
New homes are always fun/work. It’s satisfying to see the improvements.
It is such a big thing isn’t it & one that lasts for years.
Whao.. working hands on on a house. I can’t wait to see the completed house after the renovations.
I’m sure it will look very different! Thank you so much for popping in!
It will be fun to see how the work progresses.
I’ve asked for some photos of the inside!
I am sure they will make it the perfect place to live:) Wish them happiness 🙂
Sigh, new starts…… It’s lovely buying your first house together although I have not done that with my OH yet – I had the house already. I look forward to updates on the renovation – I love that sort of thing – Sarah Beeny move over.
