Turning a House into a Home

Welcome to my blog! My name is Fredrick. I live in Sydney, Australia, in my lovely home. When I moved into this place a couple of years ago, it wasn't a home, it was a house. When I saw this place, I knew it was for me. It is located right on the beach and has spectacular views. However, when I moved in, I knew something wasn't right. I called in a contractor and began working on turning my new house into a home. I had one wall knocked down so there was more space, I had the walls painted and new windows installed. I then demolished the old garage and constructed a sunroom. I learnt an awful lot during this work and so I decided to start this blog.
