A big piece of the puzzle when it comes to the move is selling our house. We bought a property as an investment 2.5 years ago and now we are getting ready to sell. We’ve lived in the house and fixed it up over time, knowing that it was not our “forever” house and that we would make some money on the resale.
The Before and Afters speak for themselves.
My favorite transformation: the kitchen!New cabinets, new counters, closing the wall, new appliances and removal of the low hanging view-blocking cabinetsBonus room: This room needed trimming, new paint and blindsMaster bedroom: this room was once a garage (but I don’t have a picture). New blinds, new closet doors and touch up paintThe second master was half carpeted/half wood. The wood was damaged so we pulled it all up and re-carpeted, painted and changed the closet door.Another shot of the second master (it’s a teen room)Dining room: this is the first thing you see beyond the living room when entering the home. We removed wall paper, added crown molding, an IKEA light fixture, paint and furnishingsEat in Kitchen: The terrible paint was the first to goDrastic! The back family room got hand-scraped mahogany floorsWe added shutters and a row of azalea bushes along the frontThe Front Living Room: We painted, pulled up the carpet and found hardwood and added some crown moldingWe fancied up the beams and painted the front of the house and the front door
