Second Floor Bedrooms BEFORE

The stairs will stay in the same location, but the door and wall will be coming down.  I think having an exposed handrail will really help open up the space.

Going UP!

Upstairs to the right:

Up the stairs and looking right you will see a finished bedroom.  We will update the floors, windows, electrical, etc. but will keep the layout of this room essentially the same. 

There is a good sized closet and built in book shelf.  We will be getting rid of those nifty bed springs, not to worry.  Don't you just love those hardwood floors?!

Looking out into the hallway towards the second upstairs bedroom, which will become the master bed/bath.

The second bedroom has never been finished, so no need for demolition here.  It is already plumbed for a bathroom - or should I say ensuite?  That's what they always call it on HGTV.  

I think this will be our favorite room.  I am really looking forward to this room being finished. I am having a hard time imagining how it will look when it is complete.  I can't wait to see the design in real life.

This section of roof line will be extended to match with the rest of the roof, giving us more space.  We may be able to have vaulted ceilings in here, too.

We will be adding a 17 foot shed dormer in this area, lifting the roof line up and allowing for plenty of windows.  Get ready for the view! It is going to be incredible.  The door the bedroom will be moved to create more space.  The door will be just at the top of the stairs, instead of requiring a quick left turn, as it is now.
