Hi There ~!
I should have posted this last week but I've been busy Purging and Packing. Even though I have cleaned out before I seem to have items that give birth to other items when I'm not looking.. giggle:)
Three loads to the dump. Nine loads to donation. 21 posts on Freecycle for folks to come and get stuff..
I have one more room to purge/ the pantry/ oui vey .. I better get it done cause the movers will be here saturday morning at 8 am.. Not sure how time slipped away from me but I have 48 hours to catch up with it.
enough yapping from me... on with the pictures which I will try to describe as best I can since its empty..
For those who didnt see sneak peek 1:)
1697 sq. ft.. 3 bedroom, 2 full baths, 2 car garage, bonus room, great room, privacy area, screened in porch, gas fireplace, granite countertops, tumbled marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, Cathedral and 9 t ceilings, hardwood , tile and carpet, security and sprinkler system, gated commmunity.
That sounds like a real estate ad, lol..
Bedroom 1 - has its own full bath, walk in closet. Flooring will be changed to hardwood.
Bedroom 2- large closet for storage .. I'll make this my office and craft room... Flooring will be changed to hardwood.
Staircase to bonus room 18 x 30.. also door at top of stairs leads to a floored attic... I can even stand up straight in there. Not sure after all this purging how much will ever get Stored, except for 8 containers of Christmas decor and the tree.. But its there and believe me I am going to do my best NOT to fill it up. I never want to go thru this purging thing again... of course I forgot to take a picture while I was up there ... sheesh
great room from the patio door side.. The light fixture is coming down.. I'll be using the area you see at the right of the photo for our banquette, which wont get built in till january..
I have a Favorite carpenter, so special built in areas will have to wait till he's available.
Waiting isn't easy for me but I know if he does it, things will be right the first time..
He'll also do extra molding and add shelves to the niche .
Great room from the opposite direction... the room itself is 23x17Yes those are Hickory cabinets you see in the kitchen.. Crappy photo I took- sorry.
I'll leave them for awhile and see how I feel about it but I am fairly certain by spring, they'll be white...
Master Bath 1
Bath 2
Master Bedroom with walk in closet. I'm keeping my carpet...:)
Screened in porch 12x 12 and privacy area.. I was so glad this was already poured in concrete.I dont want any yard to deal with at all. I'll have some flowers where the pine needles are but thats it.
I'll put my plants and ornamental trees in large pots . My own private wooded area lol..
This will be the place me and my pom girls spend a lot of our time.
I had a cable connection added inside the screened porch for tv and internet..
I also ordered bamboo blinds in case I need some shade out there.
I am looking forward to sitting here this coming spring and listening to the rain while being sheltered from it.
Thats it for now and maybe for a couple weeks. In case I dont get to visit ya'll much, have a Wonderful Thanksgiving.. I am wishing it for you.Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my newest adventure... I do appreciate each and every one of YOU..

It looks like a great place, Sonny! It reminds me of the place we moved into, except we don't have an upstairs. Is that the difference between a townhome and a condo? I don't know myself. I call ours a ranch style condo since it looks like a little house {connected to three other little houses}. It will be fun to watch you decorate and put your own touch on your new home!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! A fresh canvas to start from. Can't wait to see what you do :)
ReplyDeleteYes, how exciting and it's gonna look amazing, I'm sure! Looking out for Sneak Peek 3.

ReplyDeleteI am bookmarking this post because I want to come back to it each time the changes begin to take place. It will start happening before the last box in unpacked!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a wonderful home! I look forward to seeing your changes as they are made.
ReplyDeleteOh, Sonny! I just love it-it is going to be a wonderful, wonderful home. It is bright and I like that. I can't wait to see it with your touches on it. I am dreading a big purge if we move again, too.

ReplyDeleteOh you lucky chickie! Your new home is just fantastic. I'm totally envious of the upstairs/storage. I could probably stand up in that area... My family calls me the Keebler Elf. :-)

Beautiful house, congratulations! I would plant some flowers and vines in front of the back white patio fence.
