Living in Putney

We’re all moved in to our new house! And I have to say, moving day went quite smoothly overall; we had everything moved by about 3 PM on Saturday, and by about 4 PM we even had our BBQ installed on the back deck! Here’s a few photos for your viewing pleasure…

Lounge room

This, as you can probably guess, is the lounge. Since we already had an entertainment unit, we moved the boxes into Team Lewis’ bedroom to use as a stand for Julian’s keyboard. The garden and deck out the back is for our own private use!

Kitchen

How tops is this kitchen? It’s plenty spacious, has heaps of bench space, and backs straight onto the lounge for that lovely open plan feeling. And, it has a gas cooktop! The kitchen and lounge are on the second level (about three steps down from the entrance).

The Lewis Room

This is Team Lewis’ bedroom, which is upstairs. The cupboard space is gigantic! The main bathroom (shower/bath, sink, toilet) is straight across the hall from their room.

The Thomas Room

This is our bedroom, which is actually in the cellar. The mattress is very comfy! The doors at the back-left are a walk-in robe; the door at the front is the entrance to the room.

Thomas Room 2

This is looking towards the other end of our bedroom. There’s plenty of space on the bookshelves! There’s also a little ensuite just to the right-hand side of the couch.

So that’s about it! I need to put up a photo of the backyard but it was night when I took these. Suffice to say it’s lovely and spacious, and we have it all to ourselves.

Yes, I think we’re going to like living in Putney…

Our internet is getting switched on next week, inconveniently on the day we all fly out of the country for a week and a half. I’m sure there’ll be lots of updates after that, but until then – no promises, sorry!

Wow! How good is your new place?.. Love it… Great Kitchen. Plenty of room for an Espresso Machine.

I am surprised the coffee machine was not already installed before the photo was taken – and the TV!

Looks great guys! Hope you enjoy it very much.

We took these shots before we had moved anything in… But never fear, the espresso machine was the first thing to be installed, closely followed by the TV and hi-fi!

Looks awesome guys! A huge improvement on your old place to say the least :) Can’t wait to see what the backyard is like.

VERY spacious! Nice digs guys. Great yoga space for KJ in front of the couch as well. Top stuff, enjoy! Where does the spare bed go? ;)

Very nice digs guys, particularly for London. Looks like you’re on a winner here.
