Photos of the house
Now that we're pretty much settled in and the upgrades for our house are done (other than painting the outside which we're in the process of) I'm sharing some photos of our house.
It's a 3,000 square foot home built in 1986. We put on a new roof, ripped up the old carpeting and replaced it with Spanish tile floors throughout the house other than the bedrooms and Garage. The bedrooms have wood laminate that I picked out. We painted the interior (I picked the colors). We took out the old cabinets and counter tops and replaced them with new oak cabinets and marble counter tops. (My wife picked the counter top and I picked the cabinets). We put up new blinds and valances. We got some serious home theater equipment (I pick out all electronics). The cabinets in our laundry room are an example of the old cabinets that were throughout the house...including the bright yellow Formica counter tops. I haven't included photos of the garage yet, but it's spotless and has drawers, cabinets and workbenches on all the walls. Very organized and nice. The former owner was a bit of a craftsman, but didn't have very good taste. There are 3 bathrooms and one of them is in the laundry room. You can access it either through the kitchen, the garage, or the side door of the house. It has handicapped handles. The former owners were elderly and needed these. We got the house for $70k and we put about $30k into upgrades...minus the home theater stuff. If you're interested you can see them on myspace http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/inde...lbumId=3050051 or facebook http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...&id=1546955747
