Thanks: Gave 81, Got 43 | Barn Conversion Build
Hi,
We are soon to be converting our barn into a living space (planning permission permitted) with two bedroom and an open plan kitchen/living room
So far equipment wise i think im pretty set on only a couple of things
Pioneer PDP - LX6090 and my Xbox 360 Elite everything else im not sure on yet so any advice would be brilliant
Once i find my camera i will upload some picture of the barn at present (a bomb site) and try to update this thread as much as possible.
But as said above any help/advice would brilliant
Some pictures, couldnt take any of outside as it ended up being too dark
this is the entrance at the moment, this is only one half of the downstairs mess
view from the top of the stairs
view from other end of the barn

I love it. Im very jealous as i mentioned this is a dream of mine but to get a uncoverted barn in Essex is lots of money and im not sure i could do a two hour each way commute.
Keep us all updated with pics as I am very very interested in this.

Wow, how exciting
I bet a look through the BatBarn thread would be worthwhile
