The builder took a deserved break for Christmas but he's back to work in early January. Within the first week the ground floor framing is almost complete.
Here's a view from the study to the living room in the rear pavilion. In-between these two rooms is the main garden area. All rooms adjoining the garden have glass doors and windows.
This integration between rooms and gardens is one of the things that convinced me to start this rebuild rather than renovate the old house, so it's exciting to see it in person rather than just imagining it from a blueprint.
Here you can see the view from the front door. The large space in the middle of this picture is for the stairwell.
Here is a view from the rear bedroom. There's another garden area directly behind the two bedrooms, effectively a private garden, which connects to both bedrooms through floor-to-ceiling windows.
Here's a view of the house from the street.
