My House - Before

As promised, the following pictures are of the house I am closing on next week.  These pictures show the house "as is" (after all, that's all part of buying a foreclosed house), so please understand I am well aware that it needs a lot of work.   I intend on taking pictures throughout the transformation process and posting them every step of the way.

Suggestions and comments are welcome...  I'm not very experienced in decorating or remodeling, but I am ready to learn.

Let the pictures begin...

Loving the green roof;  the gray and maroon house color, not so much...
Thinking of going with light beige with white trim.

Master bathroom
Master bedroom
Dining room... All carpet is being torn out, I'd <3 to go with bamboo flooring


 Sunken living room; which I dig... (pun unintended).
This will be my giraffe room!



Extra bedroom #1  (dolphins fan...?  heh get it)
Extra bedroom #2

Me!

Guest bathroom
My favorite part of the entire house... the back porch...
...because of the view.   I have lots of ideas for the backyard....

...ideas including fountains and fire. (I watch too much "Landscaper's Challenge" on hgtv



































That is all for now!  It is going to take some time but with some hard work and a little TLC this will soon be my home <3
