A bit of background

Back in April last year, we bought a house at Freshwater (formerly Harbord). It's solid enough, but not very attractive and doesn't take advantage of its site. We wanted to build our own house: well, I wanted to design a house and Graham wants to do the actual building.

The builder and architect took ages to get the documentation ready, and then we had to do a lot ourselves, but then it went through the DA process in only five weeks!

We recently gave the tenants notice, and when the back flat became vacant we were able to start clearing out the back yard.
