That is looking great! Are you allowed back in the house yet? :))

I assume you park the X where that oil stain is?  >:D

Nope - not allowed back in. She says I make too much of a mess.

Added a before pic I just found.

Thanks guys - labour of love.

Did you paint the neighbour's house as well whilst you were at it?  :))

Talk about Pimp my bungalow! That looks brilliant.
Needs something planted in those pots at the front though for a splash of colour  ;)

Nice job.  You must be pleased that it's finally done.

I'm going to go with the oil stain being a present from Jiggy..... :))

I moved in and neighbour was itching to render and paint that part of his house as he'd fallen out with previous owner I bought this from. He was quick to get on with, shall we say. I then added a spash of cement here and there whilst building mine.  ;D

Thank you again all, very kind of you to say. The stain stays (if I can find it)!

Mars - it's been described as a bungalow on steroids. :blink:

Has 3 dormers each side so a bit bulked up.

KNEW someone would comment on the pots - they have green..... weeds in em!?! One of the many things on my list of to-do's.

Actually you have a point mentioning the green weeds: as you've got a nice modern, harmonious look to the house you could have some oriental grasses/bamboo in pots to add to the zen look! All green but still add something.
I can't see an oil stain tbh, I think they're just jealous  :P

You will definitely be required for input and pics on ideas for what to put either side of that front door. Don't get smutty PVR!

Just adding it to the list for next year. Christmas coming up and both kids born in December will leave me broke, so I have to stop spending on the house.

No stain on the driveway Mars - boys will be boys - besides, took that pic after I jet washed the drive.
