Our New House

As most of you already know, our new house needed a little work done in order to bring it up-to-date, make it more functional and to clean it up.
Here is a little glimpse into our renovation journey......

Front Living Room - The previous owners just finished having this "cherry" laminate installed throughout the main and lower level ... it's a shame that was not our style. We managed to recycle it as we gave it to friends of ours that are using it their rental suite.

Kitchen - Wasn't in bad shape (but was VERY dirty!!) but we want to update and modernize it so it was more our style.

Living/Dining Room - "L" shaped wall seperating the kitchen andthe living/dining room wall will be removed.
From kitchen looking into dining area.

3rd Level Fireplace. It looks much nicer in the pictures ;) The jagged stones all stick out and is just an accident (IE: a child cracking their head on it) waiting to happen. The fireplace is also not in safe condition and would need lots of repair in order for us to use it. So we are completley removing it and hopefully will put in a gas fireplace. 3rd Level Family Room.
4th Level (basement) - After Ross had 20 mintues with it.

Main level with flooring & "L" shaped wall removed.
