Very very beautiful! My wife and I are looking for something like that, in country, where we could operate a bed'n'breakfast or something. Is it big inside? Lots of rooms and all?

And where is the helicopter (or UFO) landing place?

Looking good Mike. Plenty of room to build a recording studio, nudge nudge, wink wink!

Congratualations EKH, that's a great place you've got. Do you have a barn where we can record? We'll have to get earplugs for the horses.

BEAUTIFUL!!!

When's EmlynFEST? With Voivod headlining the outdoor concert. No side stage, just one stage with lots of great bands, refreshments sold at your house. There's plenty of land to pull this off

Since we're showing off homes, here's a link to my HOME IMPROVMENT site.
It shows our house and all the work we've been doing on it. I just put a hardwood laminate floor in the master bedroom yesterday (no pics yet). I don't have the vast amount of property that Emlyn has, so no chance of SchroFEST anytime soon.

Nice work guys!

Emlyn, I am a bit jealous! Really cool looking place there!

Seeing your new pad got the wife and I looking at acreage properties online last night! I lost my studio/office to the baby room this year and am desperate for more space! Not sure how long I will be able to stand looking at my pile of dismantled recording gear!

Schroeder, wanna come over to my place and work for beer? Damn, your guest bathroom looked like an optical illusion!!! All those black and white lines... Not a good place to stumble into after a few too many!

Yeah, Schro is the master craftsman around here for sure. There's only one thing missing in the Emlyn yard pics. Where are the junk chevys and fords propped up on blocks?????

I'd like to add that I am jealous. No half-ass pansy 'almost' jealous. 100% for reals...

Wow! Nice digs man! That piece of property is fucking beautiful. I think a recording studio should definetly occupy one of the buildings. Are we all invited to the housewarming party? I'll bring the crisps.

Schroeder, the place is looking great! I can't show your site to my wife or she'll get funny ideas about renovations and such. Painting my living room, entrance and main hallway this week. Fun stuff.

XD The black & white bathroom was how it looked when we moved in and it was like an optical illussion!!! The room was narrow and with all the stripes running from ceiling to floor they would visually move when you walked in!!! If you were standing and pissing you'd get dizzy staring at the wall.
We gutted that fucked and remodeled it with venetian plaster walls, mosaic ceramic tile floors, 5 foot corner jacuzzi tub and a chandelier...look awesome now. Make sure you see the page on the site of how it looks.

I'm not working for beer anymore!!! I just lost 40 pounds and don't want to put it back on!!! It's easier working when you're lighter!!!

Cheers everybody!

A lot of people have been saying to me they wish they could do something like this, but all you need is the sack to do it. I don't have much money - its a £50k mortgage like anyone else. Plus I don't have a job to go to, you could call this foolhardy but I don't give a shit where I work, I'll even stack shelves! Anyway, I'll let you all know when it goes horribly wrong and I end up in sheltered acommodation or something

The plans so far include:

Building a 2-berth/2 barn 24x24ft stable block to the right, pending planning permission. I may have those dimmensions wrong but luckily its not me who's building it. I'm getting a 'man' in who knows what he's doing. Also a floodlit 'schooling area'. I do not know what this means but Mrs Helicopter is insistant.

Converting the rather low attic into a studio. It's small than my current room but large enough for me, the mixing desk, outboard racks, 20 guitars and a singer.

Fucking about with the fencing so I get a nice big garden. (Note to JY: You're right, I gotta get me one of those baby tractors!). This large garden will include an orchard of fruit trees. Now, just behind the house there is a cesspit. Perfectly ok, no smell, the shit and piss simply dissapates into the ground over time. But! This ground is where I'm gonna plant the fruit trees, so....

Replacing the barbed wire that runs across the top of the whole fencing (of the 2.75 acres we have here) with an electric 'ribbon' strip. I WILL NOT attempt to piss on this, I think I proved to myself before that this is not a good idea.

Oh god, I gotta lot of work to do now!

Warm Regards to y'all,
ekh
