Above left: The striking form of the extension is evident from
outside, where wooden cladding runs from floor to ceiling on
the structure, creating a semi-sheltered area of patio

tones throughout the barn to complement the worn, warm wood
This page: Monochrome tones have been
mixed in the main bedroom en suite
in a variety of textures and patterns. A
large spa bath occupies a cosy corner
suite comes with a quirky large round
bath and some more monochrome
Victorian-esque tiles. Elsewhere the
gorgeous marble topped double vanity
unit has his and hers sinks, while behind
a walk-in shower completes the room.
Reaching the end of the finished
house and Sian and Steve’s house story
to date, my time with them drew to
a close. The house will continue to
unfold over the coming weeks but
I’m sure with a lot less drama. The
obstacles they faced with each stage
would have put most people off, but
it’s testament to their determination
and complementary skills that they’ve
always found a way. Together they make
a great team and now all that’s left to
be done is finish what they started.
“We’ve promised our son that we’ll
have it ready for his birthday so that
he can have a party,” says Steve, “so
it’ll be done by then.” Knowing Steve,
he’ll definitely rise to the challenge.
