Horray! There she is! Decked out in all its Christmas cheer. I've got neighbors to my right and left, with a small yard in the back and a patch of grass in the front. She is unassuming, but so far I like the layout.
It is one of the weirdest combination of furniture that just does not work, but none-the-less I call it home. The table the tv is on is actually an old-fashioned stereo with hidden speaker and a turntable in it. The record player does not work, but might be fixable, but then again I don't think I want it.
There is a tiny dining room that is interesting but not really my style. On the other side of the wall with the picture on it, is the kitchen. I'd like to just take out the dining room stuff and open that wall up to the kitchen. That way the room will open up in a more modern floor plan.
My favorite room in the house, the bright white kitchen. It is a little small but I am not complaining. This kitchen can crank out some great food. Right now, the fridge has got some big steaks in it, marinating, just waiting to be cooked. I usually eat on the counter top, with the bar stools, eventually I will get a kitchen table.
This is where the kitchen table will go. It is a nice space that ends with an attached patio. The carpeting in the patio area had to come up so that is why you might be able to see it's patchy looking.

This room is a small guest room that has a single bed in it. Ideally, I would like to make this room a study or office. Maybe put a desk under the window...

Right now, this spare room is storage for a lot of my Grandmothers things. In the future, it will have a queen-sized bed in it for guests. There is a bathroom in the hallway that I might consider trying to link to the guest room.
This is the master bedroom in all its grandeur. There is a bathroom off to the right however it is really small. My first big project is going to be to add some floor space to the bathroom by chopping the closet in half.Well, take care everyone!! I hope you all have a good Christmas and New Years!

Wow, Steve this is grrreat! i love the enclosed backyard! It looks so comfy and it sounds like you have some great ideas for making it 'your own'! We received a package from you but i am insisting that we wait until christmas day so that we have something to open:)...unless you tell us different, Happy Holidays we'll be thinking of you. xo
ReplyDeleteMan you got the package fast. You can open the box but you can't unwrap the present inside until Christmas. There is a card under your address you can look at right now though.
ReplyDeleteI did get the card you guys sent me. It was very well done, it had a little about what you guys were up to, it was Christmasie and I appreciated the personal messages on the back. Best Christmas card so far!
Hope you guys have a nice Christmas, throw a yule log in the chimenea for me :)
