Oh how I loved this one! From the minute I laid eyes on her,
I knew she was going to be a cutie:)
She started out a 3 bed/2 bath. We made her a
4 bed/3 bath.
Remember how I said that all the guys were hating the white??
Well they changed their tune.
Uh huh.
Maybe because I couldn't quit singing-
I tooold you soooo, oh I told you so...
I mean seriously though!!
She looks so fresh and happy I can hardly stand it:)
The entire house and all the trim is painted Swiss Coffee.
The front door is Churlish Green by Farrow & Ball.
The front porch and steps are painted with Sherwin Williams
Super Deck paint in Buckthorn.
Let's step inside shall we??
This was the front room and dining room before. The kitchen was
through that doorway on the right.
And see that raised dining area? Well that thing was a beast
I'm telling you! Like we darn near needed a back hoe to
take it out!!
We opened up the wall to the kitchen and leveled out the dining room floor.
Muuuch bettah!!
The walls in the entire house are painted Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige.
All the trim and ceilings are Swiss Coffee.
Before kitchen-
After:)
So you know how I was all excited about all my Schoolhouse Electric
lighting?? Well dummy me didn't order in enough time:( so
when it came down to the day before we were supposed to put the
house on the market, (and my lights hadn't arrived yet)
the hubby headed down to Lamps Plus and got all new lights.
And he did a fabulous job I must say:)
We're using the Schoolhouse lighting on the (now in demo stage)
Elizabeth June house, and it's going to be perfect!
The island is Ikea. We stained the top darker and added
ship lap to the back side where the stools are, and painted it
the same color as the range hood- Accessible Beige.
The hubby made the hood and corbels:)
To the left of the back door was a pantry area, and to the right
behind the wall was a built in banquette.
We opened it up so the kitchen continued to the back door, and the fridge
tucked in where the old pantry was.
How lucky were we that the back door was so cute and just
needed a coat of fresh white paint!
The Master bedroom before.
It was massive! we were able to add a master bath
and big walk in closet in this space and it still
ended up a good size!
Presto chango!
I loved that fireplace! She just needed to be squared off and
again-white paint:)
We cut out those panels in the door that made it look
dated and added glass. That door goes out to the back porch:)
The master bath. The vanity is from Wayfair (where the shipping is free- you know
you're singing it!! hahaha!!). We painted the chrome hardware matte black.
And just check out that dreamy shampoo/soap shelf in the shower!
Because every gal has like 795 bottles of what in the world! - right??!!
The downstairs bath before-
After:)
The stairs before.
The stairs after.
Well kinda. I promise they're totally finished
and lovingly covered in plastic because I would
seriously lose my sh*t if they got dirty
before the new owners made this their home!
Up those lovely plastic covered stairs are two bedrooms
and one bath. I LOVE this bedroom because-
it's HUGE and it has a little hidden gem...
LOOK at that adorable little kiddie space!! It even has tv hook up
in there! There's a chance I dream heavily of eating popcorn
and raisinets snuggled in blankets and pillows and
watching Cinderella in there.
Why yes I do have the dreams of a 5 year old!
Keeps me young I say:)
We're going to end this house tour with a visit
to the backyard.
She just needed some love.
This sweet house is already pending:)
