This house is a work in progress. Photos show the home prior to the installation of internal wall insulation and other energy saving measures.
We were looking for a home in the town centre, we knew the lady who was selling the home and she wanted it to remain a family home.
We want to create a modern living environment in this old Victorian house. It was cold, hard to heat and in a poor state of repair when we bought it. At the same time as modernising it we’re taking the opportunity to make it a more energy efficient.
It was a boarding house at one time. The previous tenants moved, in 1948 and lived there for 60 years.
This refurbishment is very much a work in progress. Internal wall insulation, floor and loft insulation and energy efficient windows have been installed along with an efficient gas boiler and wood stove.
