I Love My House – Part 2

I Love My House!

We received wonderful responses to Part 1 of a “Wow Transformation!”

Last week we showed you the exterior transformation of a relatively modest home, and how the 2 enclosed porches actually caused more clutter problems than they bargained for.

When answering our questions about what they did not like about the interior of their house, the homeowners pointed out limitations of being able to interact with the family. The rooms felt isolated and cut off, the living room was too small, the front and side porches were underused and the kitchen was too small.

Those porches came in handy – we borrowed space from the front porch to expand the living room. Then we borrowed space from the side porch to enlarge the kitchen. We did expand the overall size of the side porch so that we could use that additional space for the kitchen.

While we don’t have “Before” pictures to show you, enjoy the images of the beautiful new interior.

Now, instead of feeling isolated and cut off, the open floor plan and larger rooms make the family feel connected instead of isolated. The improved layout encourages more interaction with family and friends.

Your surroundings can totally affect your life,
your spirit, your emotional well being!

simply can’t “see it happening?”
