Innholdsfortegnelse for July 2017 i Ideal Home

This time last year, I was in the throes of a house move and the summer passed me by in a frenzy of packing, unpacking, painting and repairing. This year, I intend to make up for it in style! While I have visions of myself wafting around the garden in a kaftan and big hat, cocktail in hand, the reality is more likely to be a baggy T-shirt and a Mini Milk from the stash I keep for visiting nieces. Well, however glam (or not) I am, at least the garden’s looking great. That’s just one of the benefits of sharing a home with retired parents – all the jobs I’ve never had the time or skills to do, like pruning things properly or planting up amazing pots, get done.…

‘Everything we have, we found ourselves – it’s so wonderful to have such a personalised space’ THE PROPERTY A two-bed detached dairy farm in Llywel, Brecon. VALUE Bought in 2013; now worth around £525,000. Matt Pope had always wanted to build his own home, so when he and his wife Holly came across a derelict dairy farm with all the space they needed, he was able to realise that dream. The amount of work involved was daunting, but definitely had its rewards. ‘Other than the initial groundwork, Matt and I did all the renovations ourselves,’ says Holly. ‘When we started, Matt was freelance, so when he wasn’t working, he was doing the house. Once he had stripped back the rotten frame of the dairy, we were left with little more…

VALUE A similar property would be valued at around £1,500,000. Monica Tostes and her husband, Bart Yates, were close to making an offer on a nothing-to-do penthouse, but had a total change of heart when they saw this mid-terrace, even though it needed modernising. ‘We wanted the chance to make something uniquely ours,’ says Monica. ‘I could visualise the rear extensions we added – we put in…

 Laying solid-wood flooring is a sure-fire way to add character – and it won’t have you reaching for your slippers as it’s warm underfoot. Sold? Then read on… “Lots of solid wood is suitable for use with underfloor heating but always check with the supplier ” VANESSA GARRETT, FOUNDING DIRECTOR, BROADLEAF Q Can I use any type of wood? For a heavy traffic area like a kitchen, we recommend hardwoods such as oak, ash or teak. If you’re keen to be ecofriendly, head to a reclamation yard. It should be able to cut the timber into floorboards, removing any nails or fixings, and even treat the wood (see below). Q The best way to choose? Having samples sent by post is convenient, but they won’t tell the full story…

1 IT’S MODERN ‘Cladding internal walls in timber has become an extremely popular way to bring character, colour and texture into the home. Forget yellow 1970s-style pine – today’s home owners prefer a more varied, rustic look.’ 2 OLD IS BEST ‘Reclaimed timber is most commonly used, and has more character than new wood. Fake wood effect is available, but you just can’t beat the authentic markings and patina of old timber. Some of the timbers Charlotte and Joey used came from Falmouth Pier, and others have burn marks from when a log cabin caught fire. We cleaned and milled it to size.’ 3 QUALITY COUNTS ‘Wood warps, and it’s best to choose kiln-dried timbers which will retain their shape and not split. Avoid pieces with obvious woodworm holes or…

“A good sliding door is quick and easy to open, and glides at the lightest touch ” STEVE BROMBERG, GENERAL MANAGER, EXPRESS BI-FOLDING DOORS With frame profiles getting thinner and advanced runners offering smoother opening, modern sliding doors are fast becoming the top choice to enable a closer connection with your garden or patio. Q Why choose sliding doors? Compared with bi-folds, which subdivide the glass multiple times and need stacking space when open, sliding doors are far neater. ‘If you have more than four metres in width, we’d recommend sliding doors,’ says Steve Bromberg, General Manager, Express Bi-folding Doors. Q What are the size options? The width of a sliding door ranges from 0.8m to 3m. Height also has an impact – if the glass is very tall,…
