Yeah, less nasty carpet!

O has been hard at work tearing out carpet, seeing what we have to work with. I've been a little laid up due to a run-in with a pair of cowboy boots. In general, everything is fantastic. Some great old wood that is going to be beautiful. Plans are to have the hardwood re-finishers come in a little over a week!


What will be our bedroom.

Stairwell, too bad they remodeled it at some time as the first 5 steps are plywood instead of the beautiful old stairs. :(



Upstairs hallway



This was one of the big issues of the house. There was mold throughout one of the closets in the bedroom downstairs. We had this professionally remediated. Turns out it was a small issue compared to what they said it could turn into. It just gave us a reason to remodel the bedroom and add new closets!



Remainder of carpet to be removed this weekend...bathroom demo to follow. Things are moving!

iPhone photography apps are pretty sweet!

















Here are some panoramic views of the rooms in the house! Look at the hardwoods which were underneath that beautiful red and green shag carpet! Thanks to all of you who helped tear down wallpaper and carpet out. You always have a room at casa-bartlett.

The inside


Um, yeah, that's a copper hood.
