The Now

Here are some before pictures of our farm house. I know in a few years that we will look back on this with a sense of accomplishment. As I look at them now I'm overwhelmed at what we hope to do and the length of time that it will take for us to accomplish this.

Kitchen- plan is to keep most of this room 

dining room-knocking out walls to open up the space

dining room looking back the other way--
hoping to expose the chimney brick and clear out the walls to the kitchen and
the stairwell, which is on your left here

bathroom -- functional for the most part -- not touching for the most part!

Living room -- glorious old fireplace

staircase -- this one abuts the dining room-to-be and will hopefully not have
a right wall after we're done with it

bedroom #1 at the top of the stairs

view from bedroom #1

bedroom #2 -- cozy!

bedroom #3 -- 1972 anyone?

bedroom #4 -- the grand fireplace extends up through this room

basement -- this is part of the original cabin, said to've been built in the 1750s
It may have once been slaves' quarters, but definitely was where the household
cooking happened.  This is the grand fireplace you see up through the house
