Scottish Croft House Renovation

[Tarrel]

Hello Everyone,

66 year old avid DIYer here.  Had a stab at most things over the years, mostly successful (but with the odd exception!), including framing, carpentry, floor-laying, electrics, plumbing, etc.

Contemplating the purchase of a derelict croft house with some land a bit further north from where we live.  It’s a wind and watertight empty shell / blank canvas in which I can see loads of potential, but needs a lot of work.

Internal floor area is 36’ x 12’, enough for an open plan living/kitchen area, one bedroom and a shower room.  The small scale of it appeals to me, as I’ve not done a full renovation before.

I’ve been googling loads of questions, many of which kept bringing me to this forum, so I thought I might as well join the conversation.  Thanks for having me.
