Two and a half years ago I concluded this blog. The old home was cozy, warm, and being lived in, but was it finished? No, it was not finished, she will likely never be finished but rather a continual work in progress. My wife and I along with the help of some friends, have been going over each room inside. We've fine tuned each one and added detail to all the charm that was inherently there.
I thought it might be nice to revisit the blog and show what the rooms look like today. I'll touch upon some of the things we've added and improved upon.
When you first enter the house, the hallway is directly ahead and the staircase slightly to the left. We created an accent wall to the left, just below the stairs:
To the right of the entrance is the dining room. In here we installed new yellow pine flooring, grand crown moulding, and a rich blue paint:
To the left of the entrance you will find the living room. New carpet, wallpaper, and re-painting the trim white was all that was needed to brighten this room up:
From the the front entrance, walking down the hallway will lead you to the kitchen. The original upper cabinets were restored, as was the sink base cabinet. New quartz countertops, tile backsplash, wallpaper and white wood trim, completes the transformation:
Up the staircase and to the right is the bathroom. Here we installed subway tile, wallpaper, and a new ceiling:
On the outside, we painted the sheds to match the house:
We have not done anything with the bedrooms so far, but they are not in need of much short of a fresh coat of paint. And that is where we're at today June 2nd 2024. We will keep plugging along, and if anything significant occurs, I'll update & share it here.
