[norgeway]

Well, the siding is on...

 

[norgeway]

Rear

View.

 

[norgeway]

I thought..

It came out pretty well, New roof and new vinyl siding, they wrapped it with a foam wrap too.

 

[norgeway]

Here is..

The garage...but you can bet no car will ever reside here, this is reserved for STUFF!!!

 

[norgeway]

There are Three!!!

Great BIG pecan trees!..I can just taste the pecan pie now!!!

 

[norgeway]

Also...

Of all things ..a Ginko tree.

 

[norgeway]

But i know..

You all want to see what has been done INSIDE!Here is the Kitchen..the painter is still working on the cabinets so the doors are still off...how do you like the TURQUOISE!

 

[norgeway]

Wider View...

I think it will look good once we finish.

All the plumbing is new and some of the wiring.

 

[norgeway]

Same color as the kitchen.

 

[norgeway]

Living Room..

And hall, as well as bath and back bedroom are the color Donald found,toasted almond.

 

[norgeway]

Its getting there!

But not near done yet...and I sure am dreading moving!, This is looking from the living room into the hall,.

 

[norgeway]

Got out the Kirby..

To try and clean the carpet...mainly because I couldnt find the tank for my 3 brush Electrolux...

 

[norgeway]

Shampooing is..

A BIG mess!

 

[norgeway]

And im..

REALLY tired!

 

[norgeway]

Here is my Habitat light fixture!

A 60s Moe Light.

So cute!

Your home looks great! The roof and siding look awesome. Love the interior colors with white trim too. How did your rugs clean up with the Kirby? I have one but have never used the rug renovator attachment. We have a Bissell that does a very good job.

 

[norgeway]

I dont think...

It works as good as my Electrolux 3 brush, but I cant find the darn shampoo tank!

 

[polkanut]

So, when is the housewarming party? 

 

[firedome]

Well...

that is just lovely, congrats on a fine job! Around MD they called that type of siding German siding, I don't know why, but don't understand why more people don't use it, it's so much more attractive than standard clapboard imho.

Beautiful!

I love the phone niche. Younger buyers look at older homes and can't figure out what these are for.

 

[gansky1]

Very nice looking house - it's in great shape. I like the turquoise color, very clean and cheerful! Nothing better than fresh paint.

 

[circlew]

Looking very nice!

and I do like the colors you've chosen.

 

[dynaflow]

cant wait to see

Im going up tomorrow to lend a hand cant wait to see all thats gone on since i was there

 

[norgeway]

Re Phone niche,

The first thing Dons Dad said was, " We can take that thing out!" Of course we said OH NOOOOO!!!!

 

[polkanut]

It looks great!  Can't wait to see what will look like when it's finished.  It sure has come a long way already.

Watching your threads are like waiting for Christmas. I can't wait to see which "best of the best" gets juried into the new house. There's bound to be items you haven't seen that will be fun to find. Let me know if there's something you'd love to have for your new house.

This is really beautiful Hans.  I keep saying I'm going to come down that way and see everybody and never get there.  I must come see this beautiful house when you finish it!
