Our New Old House


Well, as of tonight we are out of the old and into the new.  Here are the before's of our 'new old house':  Charming from the street, more than a summer project indoors, but if you are wondering what the heck we are thinking, make sure you scroll to the last two photos.  I know you know I know you know...there will be a lot of project posts a comin'.  If you get bored with me, click the links to the right, those people still photograph their children.  In realted news, it was Lucy's Birthday two days ago.  She had a VIP function due to the move, but had a wonderful Birthday anyway. 

Kitchen and Main Level Mud Room.
 Kitchen and Dining Room.
 Master Bedroom.
 Lower Level Family Room.
 Lower Level Murphy Bed.
 Lower Level Mud Room.
 Lucy's Bedroom.
 Upstairs Bathroom.
 View from the kitchen sink.
The photo here doesn't even do the view justice...it is expansive and impressive and just relaxes you the moment you set foot outside.
With three levels, 3 bedrooms, den, 2.5 bath, 3,000 square feet...every square foot of which needs rehab, we will be busy for a while.  But let's be honest, that's the way we like it.

I can't wait to see what you do with it! Looks like a great house and I'm sure you'll make it even better. Want to know the only think I think would make it better? If it was next door to ME!

Don't be shy, the view is PHENOMENAL!!! Seriously, saw it for myself and was floored. Lucky duck for getting to live here and we can't wait to see what your creative mind does to this place. Xo
