The Good...
- The old metal windows
- Hardwood floors throughout
- Fireplace wall flanked by little windows
- Glass doorknobs
- 9' ceilings
- Arches
The Bad...
- Kitchen!
The Ugly...
- Refrigerator nook!
I know these pictures are hard to look at
but you have to understand that I see potential in everything.
This house was built in 1932
The updating through the years was limited to the kitchen...
2 layers of flooring ( over hardwood )
6 layers of wallpaper with it's coordinating coats of paint on the trim
and upper cabinet doors
The rest of the house has been left untouched
no carpet! or 70's paneling!
We realize the work ahead of us but that is exactly what we wanted.
After years of working on houses that belong to other people
I am thrilled to finally put all my creative energy into this house.
