An Impromptu House Tour In Photos (Celebrating 13 Years In Our Home)

As of this month, we’ve been in our home for 13 years. Wow! The time has flown by! Over the previous couple of days, every time I’ve taken a break from the demolition of the hallway toilet to show it into our new storage room, I’ve been attempting to get my House Tour web page up to date. It has been actually enjoyable for me to see the entire progress that I’ve made on this home all condensed onto one web page. So, since this month marks the tip of our thirteenth yr on this home, I assumed it could be enjoyable to do an impromptu home tour in photos.

I actually like flooring plans, so in your reference, I’ll embody the present flooring plan of our home. There’ll nonetheless be adjustments to return with the sunroom and the little toilet to the left of the sunroom (which doesn’t have a label), however all the things else is now set in stone so far as the structure of the home goes.

The thrilling factor for me is that after 13 years on this home, with me working on my own on about a lot of the transforming and adorning (I’d estimate I’ve completed between 80%-90% myself), this portion of our home might be full by the tip of the yr.

As you now, proper now I’m engaged on the little storage room in our bed room suite. Regardless that it’s a small room, it’s a fairly in depth venture as a result of I’ve determined to take out all the things, all the way down to the studs, the ceiling joists, and the subfloor, and redo all of it. After that, I’m going to do a makeover on the breakfast room, and the nice factor is that the breakfast room received’t require any transforming. All of that had been completed for years within the breakfast room, in order that room will simply require some redecorating. And as soon as the breakfast room is completed, all the things in pink on the ground plan above might be completed for now. In some unspecified time in the future, I do wish to refinish the hardwood flooring, however that may wait some time in order that I can take a breather and revel in all of those completed areas.

I really like seeing the entire rooms of our home collectively in a gallery like that. All the coloration and patterns make me so completely happy! However right here’s a greater view of every room. All of those earlier than photos, excluding my workshop, are what these areas regarded like once we purchased our home in August 2013. And the entire after photos, excluding the breakfast room, are what these areas appear like at the moment. As you already know, I’ve taken quite a lot of the issues from the breakfast room to make use of in different areas of the home, however I didn’t wish to muck up the earlier than and after photos with an unsightly image of what that room truly seems to be like at the moment. I’ll get it again to a fairly “after” situation as quickly as I’m completed with the storage room.
