  • In this video I wanted to give you a tour of my new home.
    As many of you will know, I moved house this week. I wanted an extra bedroom and some outdoor space - this new place provides both of these things, and so much more.
    I hope you will enjoy having a little look around - I can’t wait to start a new chapter in this house and share it with you!

      I agree completely. I like individual rooms, where you can shut the door if you need to. Also, you can have different decor in each room instead of one unified theme. Who wants someone to walk in the front door and see that you haven't cleaned up from baking cookies yet? In fact, I've read that some homes now have two kitchens. One is like the show clean kitchen and the other one is where all the dirty stuff is done. It also keeps the smells from the kitchen getting into the rest of the house, which was a complaint that I've read about. The dirty kitchen, of course, is not part of the open concept. How crazy is that? Just close off the kitchen.

    Congratulations! What a lovely home you've chosen, truly lovely inside & out! If I may dare to be so bold to offer a suggestion (my 2cents worth)? The feeling of a front entrance opening right into the main living space is a bit too exposed. However, if you simply add a (I know it will be a beauty w/ your eye) 'divider screen' on the open rm. side of Ent. door (floor to ceiling is best) with the top of the screen duplicating the light transom above your nice Ent. door (so that you don't loose any of that beautiful natural light). This will create a repose upon entering (add to safety/privacy) and afford you an added wall & or corner niche on living room facing side of screen (perhaps adding a chaise & small lamp table angled into newly created corner ... The hutch would then be well placed opposite the fireplace wall to balance (height & bulk) & with possibly two lovey chairs or potted trees anchoring each side of hutch which will also maintain elongating wall length/width. I pray you don't mind my imput. Your fab new digs simply inspired me to the point of compulsory response, please forgive. Best wishes!

    'Glad to see you've coped with the actual move, in spite of feeling unwell; I hope you're feeling much better. Excellent room sizes for a city apartment; high ceilings and light are real bonuses, especially for a basement flat. If you own the flat, just paint the kitchen tiles for now and re-tile when you can; if it's rented, one idea might be to get a handyman to cut some 'tile effect' board to fit around the switches, etc., and simply clip this into place to cover the red tiles. Not ideal but it would, at least, conceal the offending items!

    Hope you are feeling much better by now. Your new flat is quite nice. I think the wallpaper will be a lovely choice for your dining room. I'm rather partial to wallpaper myself, and think it a shame how rarely it's used in properties here in the USA. The front courtyard garden sounds wonderful. In addition to potted plants, perhaps you could knock together some timber boxes for raised bed gardening. I designed and built a small raised bed herb garden for my grandmother years ago. It included wire frame towers for architectural interest and up which I trained ivy and climbing roses. The herbs were useful for cooking and, if careful plant selection is made, can supply some simple country style floral arrangements. Your new place affords you ample opportunity to hone your decorating skills as you settle in, and I wish you and Sophie both health and happiness in your new home.

Definitely need a warmer colour on the walls to show off the colours of your furniture. Poor Sophie will be a little unsettled but will soon adjust with you by her side. I must say she is looking beautiful after her grooming. I hope you get to use that beautiful wallpaper. It brings the garden into the room and with the addition of mirrors, plants and beautiful lighting it will be magnificent. Hope you get better soon. Some good nourishing soups would do you the world of good. That you have an outdoor space to entertain in is marvelous and lends itself to so much.Until we meet again, take care of yourself.

    Hi Nicholas wish you well in your new place. Really looks great! Please includes us in your planning before you start with a room. Would like to learn from you. Functionality is so important when you do that! So, looking forward to that. The dining room paper really is going to make that room very special. Few suggestions to ponder on: the mirror on the mantelpiece is to big. Would rather put a smaller golden framed one (typical French) on and put the big mirror on the wall between your front door and the window with a beautiful Vass on a table under the mirror
    to dress a foyer entrance. Then move your beautiful cupboard, that is currently next to your front door in the corner where your book case is to make that space cozy. You can then put a chair near by to sat on work and still be able to see the street and people moving by. I believe in cozy corners in a room LOL. That big wall opposite your couch needs a statement!!! Would dress is with your beautiful botanical pictures and a beautiful darker table underneath. I struggle with mixing darker and lighter furniture. Maybe you can give us some tips. Those round picture frames either on both sides of the fire place OR in the dining room! Please take us step by step through the planning of a room. Would lov to learn from you. Sorry for the longgggg essay LOL>

    Oooh, wallpaper for the dining room! How absolutely brilliant - gorgeous wallpaper, perfect for the room! Could I suggest you find an open shelf/rack that you could place atop your bureau in the dining room and place your china on the shelves? Your china is so pretty - it's a shame to put it away in a dark cupboard. LOVE the courtyard. I can anticipate you will turn it into a very charming space, indeed.
    It's hard to convince others, isn't it, if you're ill with something other than CoVid. Humanity has lost its ability to reason and has become fearful of the slightest sneeze. So unfortunate. Glad you a feeling a wee bit better, even if drained. Trade secret of moms, dear one; chicken noodle soup with a rich broth truly is restorative when you've been wretchedly ill. It causes one to think that they will indeed live to see another day. Warm regards from El Paso, TX

    So beautiful! I’ve heard of people doing a stick-on backsplash and have seen it in a white subway tile style that may be more up your alley than the red. I’m not sure how durable it is but I hope this helps! 🧡

    There are some lovely Le Crueset stovetop cooking vessels that are the exact colour of your kitchen tiles that would be perfect for styling your kitchen with flare.

    So anxious to see what you do with your new place. My sister has taught me how lamps do bring so much warmth into a space. You have the seating in the living area worked out! How great to have a dining room now! Hope you feel better soon!

    I too, when I move, get everything pulled together in a matter of days. It always amazes my friends who say “how long have you lived here?”

      Nicholas I hope you never change your attitude. you are a joy to watch. The honesty and unpretentious way you deliver every video is so appreciated in this materialist world. Your mother must be very proud of you and all you are achieving. I love it when something you make doesn't turn out perfect its okay and you own it. Good luck in your new digs as we say in the US. I will never stop watching you.

    Here in the states, they have peel and stick backsplash that actually looks very authentic. Perhaps you could use something like that while you live there. It’s a beautiful space. I love your little patio area. It has so much potential. I know you will make it very inviting! Hope you feel better soon!

    A beautiful flat. I love the look of it, so quintessentially Scottish, that wonderful stone! Congratulations and thank you for the tour. 10/10 for being willing to paint it. There are things I work very hard at, but house painting is not one of them! LOL! Thank you for the video. Have a fabulous week and I hope you are soon well again.

    Not going to lie, I nearly squealed with glee when I saw the light in your living room. I loved the light you had in your previous home and was hoping you would be able to find the same feel. I can’t wait to see the tea and dinner spreads in your new dinning room. If you want to spend a few frustrating albeit visually rewarding hours, Amazon has a pretty nice selection of temporary black splash tiles. They are peel and stick and really change the whole look of your space (just did my kitchen this summer). I can’t wait for the garden videos. In the meantime, take it easy settling in, especially since your still recouping. I wish you much happiness and joy in your new home!

    Your new place is fabulous !!!! Sophie is such a good girl, not rushing out when you opened the door to the courtyard .
    Your flu is probably hanging on because you’re having to use so much energy with your move . Moving really takes it out of you even when you are young. .
    Rest ! Rest ! Rest !
    Hope you feel better soon. 🙏🏻

You are wise to take it easy; please continue to take care of yourself. It will be fun in the coming months to watch you develop your vision and see the execution of making this place into a beautiful & charming home. What an excitingly fresh new slate to work with! Best wishes Nicholas ❤️

You have many many things to arrange 😸. Anyways, expecting to see your in next video indoor or outdoor. Take good care and hope that you get nice rest after the arrangement. Btw, I love the ceiling and ground floor cos I like seeing people's activities from windows sometimes. Love🤗

    That you for the tour of your new home. It is so lovely and a little cottage almost as you say. Nice to have the separate dining area, it will be so cozy for dinners in the evenings. You really lucked out on this place. Love the flooring too. So sorry you had such a bad time with that flu and hope you are feeling better and then on top of that having to move. All looks so lovely. Perhaps some sort of Persian type rug in the kitchen to tone down the red tiles, may make it cozy. Can’t wait until next Friday and how you progress with your move. All the best to you. Sophie has lots of space to wander now and nice having the outdoor space that you both can use in warm weather to dine or relax.
