So here are all of the before pictures.
Big huge rock in the front yard!?!
The lopsided Garage, this will be torn down and a two car attatched garage will be added.
Here is my handy man husband trying to unlock the door. By the way these stairs are so off centered. They wont be there for long.
Here is the hubby {Adam} measuring for moving the staircase.
Here is the before of the staircase which will be moved so the kitchen will be huge and the eat in dining area will be open to the kitchen.
The only thing I have to say about this bathroom is YUCK! Everything will be ripped out of here except for the bathtub and the vanity top.
The faucet is brand new looking.
I know, I know I said that we are keeping the bathtub, it looks gross but we will be having it repainted...it is porcelin, it is VERY durable and very easy to clean. The surround is really gross, that will be coming out, and we will be tiling the shower wall.
I am not a huge fan of Cape Cod style roofing but we will be making the up stairs into 2 bedrooms and a full bath by raising the back half of the roof. We talked about eventually putting dormers in the front with window seats.
This is the other side of the upstairs.
This is the scary view where there is no floor looking down into the what will be the formal dining room.
Here is a view from the second story looking down at where the stairs are now. NOT FOR LONG!!!
We were so bummed to look inside of this closet to see that whoever had lived here before must have ripped it out. This is original hardwood flooring. My sister in law bought the cape cod next door and underneath the carpet revealed LOVELY hardwood. It was in such great shape that they did not even have to refinish it.
This is the Laundry Room. It looks so gross, but I am so excited that I will finally have an actual laundry room. It will be very spacious. Enough for the washer and dryer, cabinets and a countertop for folding clothes.
This is part of the basement, We probably will use this side for a storage area.
Here is what was left of the kitchen, but it will be so much bigger because the stairs will be moved.
One thing I love about the property is the land is huge. We will be putting the dogs invisible fence up for now and then eventually a privacy fence, patio, and deck!
Looking at this makes me so excited because the Demolition is already done for us. We are going to have endless possibilities. I am going to be able to pick out absolutley everything for this house. My next post will be some inspiration photos of what I want the house to look like.
We have some work to do. We have done this with our first two homes so we know what we are up for! We are so excited.
