Our House

Finally! A proper introduction to the brown house!

First up the oven! Single brick ex-double garage probably intended to be a 'games room' we use it as our main lounge and......

Scrapbook room.

Computer area.

And lounge of course.

Oh and half of our library. :-) This room gets HOT on a hot day- 32 degrees is not unusual.

Through that door way....

Is this L shaped room which is kind of impractical but we made it work quite nicely as...

The other half of the library and our reading corner.

The second lounge.


The play room.

This is our front entry way note the 'devine' green tiles. Blergh! That leads to the hall way and off the hallway you can find....

Our bedroom.

 Check out the awesome light shade!

We're still sharing a room... aiming for a 3rd birthday transition- of course we need to teach Will not to wake up at 5:30am first.


 His and hers walk in wardrobe


Lovely décor in the en-suite!

 Hmmmm... those tiles.


Also off the hallway the laundry- more classy tiles! And the dishwasher (pain in the bum!).

The last room off the hallway is: Merenia's room (on an extremely good day).



Right outside Merenia's room is the dining rooms and the place where we keep all the school stuff.


And that looks back down the Hallway and onto the kitchen.

Lovely BROWN and GREEN kitchen.

I do love my awesomely huge pantry... we have space in there and our kitchen cupboards... lots of lovely space!

There's a little hallway off the dining room and to the left of that is Will's room...


This is his Lego making table. It needs some sort of rim around the edge because all the Lego ends up on the floor anyway- which is what we were trying to combat with the containers. Oh well....


And this will be Tama's bed eventually. Will made the interesting choice of the fish art work from IKEA.

Down the other end of the hallway is the kids bathroom which also contains classic 70's décor and is a tragic waste of space.


Mmmmm marbled formica! The shelves on the left were converted from Kieran's old chest of drawers. We have a linen cupboard but it's back in the laundry and it has all of Les' modelling gear in it.

And last but not least Kieran's room also on the high end of tidy because I took these pics on the day of our first rental inspection.

And there you have it: Casa Del Stockley aka The Brown House..

Hello! Found you at random via blogger today and just wanted to say thank you for the tour of your house. It's fabulous! As are the juvenile kookaburas! (May have spelt that wrong, but oh well!) Merely thanks for my trip to the other side of the world.
