Kaitoke Grand Design

This photoblog charts the creation of the Treanors' Grand Design in Kaitoke, New Zealand 1 year from the start of our search for a piece of land to build a house and live the country lifestyle. After seeing around 20 sections and one failed purchase, we finally bought 2.6 hectares on the Kaitoke Loop Road on 1 March 2007. One week later the build was underway and is expected to last around 6 months to complete. Then we'll really start living the dream here in New Zealand.

Week 28: it's all happening

With a week to go it's a hive of activity on site. Painters, carpenters laying floors, joiners fitting kitchens, digger drivers landscaping and builders putting up the barn. It's exhausting watching everyone....it's all happening.
