I wish I'd been able to take photo's. I asked my next door neighbour for details of his builder as I want to get quotes from several builders before I decide on which one to undertake the work on my house. Next door is part of the same terrace and I always regard a terrace that was all built as one as really being one building.
I want to see examples of each builders work before I choose so my neighbour showed me round. My favourite room in my house is my bedroom in the attic and it's neighbour is what made me say "wow". It has been decorated to a high spec and looks very "modern" but without detracting from the character of the building or destroying any original features.
The modern look is achieved with wallpaper and paint, but a totally different look would be achieved with a different colour scheme.
The best part of it was the banister on the stairs which was made from an old wooden rail and some wrought iron from the local scrap yard.
