Here are the new plans for the bottom floor of the house. Basically we are gutting the kitchen (right side of plans below) and expanding it a bit, and also opening it up to the living/dining room as much as possible. Also, we're taking out the master bath and closet (top right corner of the plans below) and making that whole space the new master bedroom - with awesome vaulted ceilings - and then we're using the downstairs bedroom next to that to become the new master bath & closet. So at the end of the day there will b two bedrooms downstairs and two in the new upstairs.
The demo started a few weeks ago when the Double-D's showed up - it was like a flashback to our last project
The demolished entry way when you walk in the front door. We took out the coat closet that was here and opened it up to the stairs. It'll feel so much more open when you walk in now - compare it to the picture in the last post below.
Here is the living room with the horrible carpets pulled out and the old built-ins removed
Kitchen - gutted - but not yet expanded. The wall you see on the right will be pushed back several feet.
Master bedroom. Hard to take a picture of it, but you can see where the old bath and closet were. The framing you see (the post in the middle) will all come down so that it's one space. Previously you couldn't fit a king bed in here and now it's going to be a very generously sized room. I'll have to try to get another picture which shows it better once it's cleaned up
And even the pool is looking better. It looks a bit radioactive now, but the chemicals are definitely doing their job cleaning out all the gunk that grew over the past year. I'm hoping we can swim soon!
