C'mon a My House!

My new house! Yes, I finally found one that suited me and took the leap over Christmas. It's the biggest present I've ever bought myself!
Here is the living room. This is before I had new cadet heaters installed and the walls painted....

My bedroom...I've since had the closet rebuilt and the room painted green (of course).


The tiny bathroom that needs updating...

Bedroom #2, commonly referred to as "Mom's Bedroom", which is also now boasting a new closet and color- blue!


The kitchen which also desperately needs a facelift. Not to worry, I'm already scheming!


A very awkward space containing a water heater that's not up to code and a washer/dryer that doesn't really fit. More scheming...

Here is the narrowest staircase I've ever seen going up to the partially finished attic space...

Heads up!

Perfect hideaway for any little boys that might come over and visit...(hint, hint Adrienne)...

Here is an outdoor shot of the back of the house, the most common entrance. The front door is more of a formality.

Here is the spacious side yard, just waiting for fruit trees and an espalier fence!

Here is the front of the house and more yard, just bursting with potential!

The detached garage..stay tuned for pictures of demolition! My friend Bill is coming up today and we're ripping out an office that was built inside. I have modest plans to turn into a beautiful workspace and seed starting station!

And, finally, the backyard which needs a new fence. All this un-utilized space makes me so excited to start from scratch and really make something spectacular. I can't wait to get started!
