BEFORE

There's old, there's beat-up, and then there's just

plain busted.

 

 

AFTER

 

 

With the kitchen updated, we were able to add light, space, and make it a real selling point. Modern style cabinets, stainless steel appliances, white time, tile floors and a pendant light fixture all helped improve the youthful feel of the property.  

 

 

 

 

I love three season rooms.  But it's hard to love this one.

With the 3-season room gone, a deck with views of the backyard

helped to maximize this property.

Looks better when the grass came in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pink is a hard color to make work.  In a bathroom? Yes, the floor was pink tile.

Really hard.  

In the Updated Version, a larger vanity has been put in place,

and the pink fixtures have been removed.  The full bath was

made in to a roomy half bath.

 

 

 

This bathroom is so small you have to go

outside to change your mind.

 

 

The half bath was converted to the master bedroom shower, and some dead space was also used to make the rest of the master bath.  It was a big house, so two sinks was the way to go.

 

 

How many stylistic issues can we count in

one photo? Flagstones.  Grey Brick.

Brass fireplace screen.  Antique-ish light fixture.

Sigh.

Yes, it's the same room.  Same fireplace.  Better No?

 

 

 

Parquet flooring can also be found

at the new Boston Garden where the Celtics play.

I think that's the only place it looks good though.

We went over it with carpet.
