What year is it? Town or country? How many floors? How long do you think it will take to complete once work is started?

(Yes I'm nosy but incredibly interested in anything 'house-moving-and-house-doing-upping' )

I'm all excited for you and I can't wait to see all the other rooms and garden, whether before or after ones.
No pressure though
Gorgeous isnt it Pesta....i can tell you think like me

Actually the main cottage goes back to 16th century but the georgian sitting room is quite a recent thing put on in the 1970s so its not authentic...still its pretty.

Its in a village near Harrogate two floors....depending on planning permission it will be probably 2yrs to complete but aiming for less.
