house tour.

Welcome to my new house!

Soon I can finally begin the process of making this house my own. It's completely livable - but not very pretty yet. All of the rooms and trim needs to be painted, and the floors need to be refinished. Also, the first floor bathroom and bedroom doors need to be rehung. These are the photos from my home inspection:

Front Yard/Porch

To Do: Remove the awnings, pull down the bushes, dress up the porch

Living Room

To do: Paint, dress up the fireplace, replace the window treatments and light fixtures

Hallway

To do: Definitely paint, maybe update the light?

Kitchen

To do: Paint, add a dishwasher and garbage disposal, add more storage, maybe remove the soffits?

Dining Room

To do: Paint, change the light fixture, maybe built-ins around the window?

Master Bedroom

To do: Paint, add window treatments, fix up the closet

Bedroom 2

To do: More paint, more closet fix-ups

Downstairs Bathroom

To do: Replace the walk-in (handicap) shower, replace the masonite walls and dated tile, change the window treatments, mirror, and fluorescent light fixture

Stairway and Upstairs Hallway

To do: More paint, remove the carpet from the stairs, change the linoleum hallway floors, maybe tear down one wall into a half-wall

Bedroom 3

To do: Paint, replace the carpet

Bedroom 4

To do: Paint, replace the carpet

Bedroom 5

To do: Paint, replace the carpet, maybe do some rearranging between this room and the bathroom, look into other options besides baseboard heat

Upstairs Bathroom

To do: Paint, replace the masonite walls, add a showerhead (if possible), replace the flooring

Basement

To do: Eventually, fix the ceiling, replace the floor, paint

For now: Workshop, storage, and I'm creating a spray painting corner

Backyard

(Hi Mom!)

To do: Remove the awnings, remove the outdoor carpet on the small porch, maybe eventually a deck or patio?

Carport

To do: Add some additional braces along the back wall, just to reinforce it
