Wow! Besides being beautiful this design is also very wheelchair friendly and it doesn't disrupt the beauty of the house or even hint at it being designed for a person less physically able. Outstanding!

I'd steer clear of painting the walls, and in any case not without discussing first with your neighbour (assume that is the neighbour's property?). If the neighbour did allow, it would be very easy to span a pergola-style structure between both buildings, and from this you could have a retractable sunshade (see below link). This could provide a much more intimate space for evening dining/relaxing, especially in early & late summer when its a bit cooler. You wouldn't need to purchase or build an independent pergola, just the shade kit, which you could suspend from a decent timber frame between both buildings (of course Party Wall Act comes into play and you would need the appropriate written permissions from your neighbour). http://www.tuin.co.uk/Sliding-Garden-Shade-Awning.html?productid=17374&cat=334&utm_campaign=googleproductsearch&utm_medium=googleproductsearch&utm_source=googleproductsearch&utm_term=Sliding+Garden+Shade+Awning+3m+x+5m&_fpts=1462771551?gclid=CKK22Kap0swCFdZAGwodi6MBuw

Well, the chippies van was up the drive when I got home from work - a little unexpected. At first I thought that he was sleeping with the Mrs, but then I remembered that he needed to finish the skirting boards. He's done a cracking job - quite a few tricky internal/external corners, plus the corners not being exactly 90 degrees he was back and forth to his saw all the time. He really did a stirling job. It was 13 meters of skirting in total - which took him 4.5 hours in total (over 2 evenings) and it cost me £90. Considering I was origionally going to do it, it could well be the best £90 I've spent on this whole kitchen. I need to get a lick of paint inside the alcove that's pictured. Our little fishtank will be returning in there, but as it's out I may as well do it. When we get the bar stools, and dining room table & chairs I will update again. So: What would I change/add/remove ADD - Somewhere to hang the tea-towels. We have some on the inside of a cuboard, but they keep falling off. Maybe I need some slightly more expensive 'hangers'. The space where they could have gone we put a spice rack/draw thingie - that's probably better though. ADD - We forgot about the bin! Now we have our pedal-bin basically kicking around the kitchen. The Mrs has already filled the cupboards to maximum capacity so I'm having trouble getting an internal cupboard one past her. I think I may just fit one then deal with her later. The bin has gravitated to a semi-perminant place, but with the kids trying to be *cough* helpfull the wall is already beginning to get the odd splatter of 'stuff' where they just throw their food in the general direction of it. Last night I said 'Well, why don't we just put it in the utility room' - She shot that idea down instantly as she obviously isn't happy about the extra 4 steps that it would take to walk all-that-way into another room. Poor thing! Typical woman lol. ADD - At the start of the project I would have got the electricians to chase in another mains wire from the fusebox so that it comes out of the kitchen wall centrally to the back garden, then I would put a PIR Security Light in. I know that it's not a big job by any means, and I could, and probably will, do it myself over the coming weeks but if I could have had it without a wire on the outside of the house then that'd would have been perfect. Also, thinking about it, I would have actually got him to do it at the front of the house as well as he re-wired the whole downstairs with new fusebox etc.

If you're going to get the stone cleaned, I'd also have that modern cement based "hard" mortar taken out and replaced with a lovely lime mortar; that's how it would've been built; it's kinder to buildings and much more in keeping, but then the windows and extension aren't in keeping, so perhaps no need to be a purist... But those mortar straplines are very harsh. I'd stay with white windows or the sage green and contrast the door with either a dark blue if your windows are white or if sage, then the same colour. If not use Colourhappy's last photo suggestion all round. Nice and warm and mellow.
