BAYFORD ROAD, LITTLEHAMPTON

Post date June 28, 2021

We started our Bayford Road project in February, which has been completed in the past couple of weeks, after a few little delays.

The period terraced property was originally 5 bed, spread over 3 floors, which needed to be totally gutted. In doing so we were lucky enough to uncover exposed brickwork to all chimney breasts and brickwork to the hallway, incorporating this into the design theme for feature walls.

We have created an 8 bed HMO with 7 bathrooms, designed for professional sharers. With thanks to @brightonrenovationsltd for all of their hard work in creating our favourite project so far!

Our friends @nichecom_uk have sent over the professional pics, which look fab! The property is now on the rental market with our partner company @proletsuk, with 3 rooms snapped up on the first day of viewings!

What do you think?

Bath or Shower? – the great debate

So what’s your preference?, personally a shower for me but I do like the option of a bath. Although there are many different debates out there; aren’t you just sitting in a bath full of dirt?….showers just waste more water, surely? well it’s a debate that continues to rumble on.

?’s are without doubt more relaxing (baths have shown to lower cortisone levels, which in turn helps prevent stress), you can also add remedies into the bath water to ease muscles and help skin conditions, which won’t work under a shower. Remember to moisturise after you step out after a bath, as the bathwater dry’s on your skin it can leave it as dry as before!. Also, unless you’re caked in mud, there is no fear in sitting in filthy water as the dirt settles away from the skin and settles into the entirety of the bath.

?’s, are quick, easy, convenient, especially for property shares, hence why we use them in our developments, it’s not only down to making sure we maximise each sq inch! No professional sharer or student wants to be queuing to use the bathroom. We are all too busy and on timetables. We try to make sure where possible all properties have the ability to have en-suite shower rooms and or additional shower rooms on top of HMO licensing guidelines. People tend to spend less time in a shower, so in fact waste less water than say a 7 bed HMO running x2 baths each a day!

– The pictures here, are of some of our recent shower rooms at our developments. As you can see we love a Vie Diamond floor but as we go into each development now, we are trying something different every time in our designs.
