BATHROOM

When Doug purchased this house it had been a rental.  He had a sick wife to care for and had a lot of renovation to do.  The bathroom was made to provide lots of storage for all the medicines and bandages etc. that were needed.  He also removed a wall into what had been the policeman's "cupboard"  as the house was originally built for the local constable.  In this space he had a second toilet installed.  It was practical for his situation at the time.

A while ago he removed the old door and built a new wall.  He has now gibbed it in and repainted the bathroom.  We also removed the old cupboards and installed a new slimline mirror cupboard and a chest of drawers.

A shelf now holds various shells and pieces of kauri gum and the carved seahorse has been moved in here.  

Doug has also made the toilet roll holder and new towel rails.  We also had a man in to install a showerdome to reduce the amount of steam in the bathroom, something we are very pleased with. One more room finished.
