April 5... Less than 2 months later!

Furniture is in, and Adrian and Mack are trying to get settled. Some photos of what they've done...

Sitting room or formal living room
Dining room view, looking into the living/sitting room and the front door.
Drapes and accents are up in the dining room, but it will become a storage room for the kitchen cabinetry before it can be put together.
From the kitchen, looking to the front of the house (dining room, and living room just beyond)
The kitchen- Still waiting for cabinetry!

The den- Back door is to the left, kitchen is to the right.


Fabulous color scheme makes the den really pop.Accent wall in the den.

The den from the kitchen view.

The new vestibule- Leads to the master suite. Created from a coat closet and a small portion of the laundry room.

Master bedroom turned out to be a wonderful retreat, even after taking 11' away to make the study. It's still spacious, and the entry from the vestibule (created from the closet and laundry room) makes it feel much more private than entering off the dining room did.

Master bedroom

Still waiting on the frameless shower glass.
Master bath with the chandelier hung over the tub- VERY nice.

Kitchen cabinetry was delivered! Now someone comes to inspect it before someone else comes to install it. Nothing fast about this process!!

The study doubling as a storage room for the dining room furniture to allow room for the kitchen cabinet delivery.
The study again
The guest bedroom- Ready for visitors! Now about that guest bath....
Bright and cheery guest room

They're In!

Adrian and Mack are in their new home, but there is still some work to be done.
From the living room, looking into the dining room, then kitchen, then den.
The study- The first room COMPLETELY done. Looks wonderful!

Study's gleaming hardwood floors!

View from study into living room.Fireplace in the study- hearth was painted black to coordinate.

Master shower- still waiting on the frameless glass surround so they can actually use it!


Beautiful pedestal sinks.

The kitchen cabinets are still missing!

Pendant lights made it up.

2" blinds throughout

Kitchen has become the catch-all for homeless items and unfinished projects.


Guest bath still needs paint and a shower surround, as well as having the sink installed.


Master Bath

Wonderful roll top tub in master bath

Master bedroom


A thorough cleaning the day before move in.

The Past 10 Days








A lot has taken shape over the last 10 days. The camera really doesn't do it all justice! We're in the final stretch now- Moving day is this coming Saturday!

We're Still Working!


The garage is gone!



A new door casing frames the new door into the master suite.



This is the view from the kitchen doorway. The 1/2 wall that will be a breakfast bar is taking shape. The old wall had to be completely removed due to wood rot underneath. The room on the other side will be the den.



In the library, the new mantel is being constructed. The air vent was moved to the center. A ceiling light with its very own switch was installed, as were a couple of electrical outlets.







The new front door! Found at a salvage yard, it should be just the thing to replace the existing door.



The travertine shower is under construction in the guest bath.
