MOTH convened a meeting of the Development Assessment Panel here at The Hedge last week. We looked at what we've developed so far, what's currently in progress & what's on long-term plan. As mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we don't have any storage in our bedroom. The plan has always been to knock a big hole in the end wall at the foot of the bed & build a WIR/Dressing Room that extends out into the garden (in the 2nd pic, the long wall to the left of my favourite window in the whole house). A big job, but MOTH did a similar thing at our old house & it turned out a treat. However, the property has a big sloping drop just outside the wall, so it would have meant building a structure high up from the ground. Another issue is that the major pathway that weaves its way right around to the rear of the house is smack bang in the middle of where the little extension would go. So a major incursion into the garden by Mr. Landscaper & a whole new path would be needed as well.
So after much discussion, we have decided to forgo building & opt for Plan B. Install a big bank of built-in wardrobes along the bedroom wall. After much research, & seeing some absolute shockers of dodgy closet manufacturers, I've found a Company who's cabinetry has a good degree of simplicity & style & gets the Millie tick of approval (see pic above, but in Antique White USA finish & NOT with those long handles!). In many ways, I'm glad we've made this decision, although MOTH's disappointed he won't get to do his building thing. The list of jobs still to be done is a mile long & I reckon his time & energy is best served getting stuck into those - try another bathroom & the new kitchen & laundry for starters!
