Everyone wanted to see the inside of the house we're buying, so I snapped a few photos while we were doing our home inspection last weekend. An old woman used to live there, hence the flowery curtains and ugly as sin kitchen. When we're done updating, the oak hardwood floors will be revealed, all the walls will be painted in a beautiful Bavarian Creme colour, there will be coffee coloured curtains in the living room and dining room, and the kitchen will have new floors and new countertops. We can't wait to get started.
Here is our living room. There's not one but TWO windows. Everyone knows how much I've missed windows living in The Bat Cave.
This is the dining room right off the kitchen. Another beautiful picture window.
Here is the very out-of-date kitchen. I must say I love the cabinets, though. They're original to the house and in mint condition. I'm hoping they'll last another 50 years. Y'all are so jealous of my kitchen floor, aren't you? Admit it.
This will be Ellie's room. Looks like it was a guest room before.
This will be our guest room. This green paint is going. All 4 walls are done in this green, and it's loud and obnoxious.
This last room was used as a den, but we're putting it back to its original use as the master bedroom. What's especially nice about it is we each get our own closet. They're not large, but they'll do. And we can use the closet in the guest room, as well.
For some reason, I never got around to taking a pic of the bathroom. It's blue. Very blue. And it's has wallpaper, which will be coming down very shortly after we move in. And it has glass shower doors, which I think we'll be taking down because it'll just be too hard to give Ellie a bath like that. And they leak, so there's really no point in trying to salvage them.
That's all I've got for now, but I'll be posting pics in a few weeks of all our updates. Yay!
