\"20100129-IMG_4810\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For those of you having a hard time picturing the lay-out of the house, I thought it might be helpful to post the architect drawings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I don’t know if you can tell, but I LOVE home remodels.\u00a0 I love the thought process behind taking something not so great and turning it into something wonderful.<\/p>\n

Our house was a basic rectangle, center hall colonial<\/p>\n

This is the first floor, after. Here you can see where we added the new family room where the screened porch had been, and the new porch was added.\u00a0 A few changes were made after these prints were made- we decided not to do the peninsula in the kitchen, added the dog shower, moved the stove, etc<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the 2nd floor.\u00a0 Blake’s old room became our master bath.\u00a0 The house stayed 4 bedrooms, even though we added another one.\u00a0 We changed a few things here too, the entrance to the master bedroom closet was moved to the little hallway by the master bathroom door so we would have more wall space for a dresser.\u00a0 We took out the window in the bathroom in the hall because it looked a little weird (too small).\u00a0 That bathroom used to have a really big window but when we added the new master bedroom it became a wall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We also left the old master bathroom alone, so Austin has his own bathroom.\u00a0 The blueprints shows it as a closet.<\/p>\n

This is what the master looked like before.\u00a0 It was all pink.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It was one giant room, walk-in closet on the right (which is now part of laundry room) and bathroom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Here is the other closet in the room that stayed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I won’t post the pictures of this how this room looks now since I posted them not too long ago (it’s Austin’s Ohio State room).\u00a0 If you want to see the after, go here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
