Everyone who steps foot in this house comments on the green shag carpet. It is everywhere! Anyone who comes by wants to know if we are keeping or replacing it during the reno. It is quite popular.
Something is hiding beneath the shag. |
Hiding under the mass of furry green carpet are hardwood floors! They are in such great shape. This green fluff protected them from scratches and scrapes. We are really quite lucky.
Living Room |
The living room will get a face-lift, but the floor plan will remain basically the same. This room gets a ton of natural light and has views on both the south and west windows. South looks out towards downtown and out the west facing windows you will see the industrial area on Swan Island. It is equally impressive on a sunny day as it is on a clear night. The city lights are beautiful.
Pocket Door to Kitchen |
We will take down this built-in to allow for a more open floor plan. The kitchen will become our dining room.
SHAG!! |
The fireplace. |
The never-been-used-EVER fireplace. Dom's Grandma kept an organ or a piano in front of this baby for as long as he can remember. We aren't sure what our plans will be for the fireplace yet. Do we keep it as a wood burning fireplace? Convert to gas? And don't even get us started on finishes... We have so many decisions to make! All we know so far is that the TV will hang above the fireplace. Sounds like a good enough start to me!
