So I will be documenting the renovation of our new home using real photo’s of before, during and after as well as customized mood boards for each room/area of the house. This will be my first personal “blogging” experience, so do bare with me : )
This lovely timber home is set on a large plot (1384sqm) in a quiet cul-de-sac in the leafy part of Noordhoek, Cape Town…and close to the beach. The only thorough-through is horses on route to the famous Noordhoek beach for a canter by the sea! As you can imagine I am in my element, yet to start riding as the house renovations are keeping me far to busy. We’re planning to turn this little ugly duckling into a Nordic inspired summerhouse come modern Farmhouse.
So let’s begin.
