Loyal blogger readers will remember that our house building dreams haven’t entirely run a smooth course. For new readers, here’s the crux of our story.
Anyway, we were out yesterday with the bassets walking the Rimutaka Incline Trail which is a recreational path that follows the line of the old Rimutaka Train Line. Lo and behold as we doodled along and opening in the hedge gave us full sight of the land we were going to buy but never did.
Little did we know at the time that there was a perfect viewing point straight onto the land (and possibly our bathroom) had we proceeded with our intended plans. It was interesting to see how the land has developed.
Funny how life turns out – although this is still a beautiful spot I reckon we did get some luck with the land we now have and the home we’ve built.
