New Project

Andy and I closed on a new project on Friday.  It is located in a very nice neighborhood near campus, is on half an acre, has a wooded ravine behind it, and has lots of potential!  It was built in the early 50's and hasn't really been updated.  Every contractor that comes in comments that it was a really well built house so that makes us feel good.  Also, the rooms are all nice size and it has a lot of storage.  We are really excited about it and already have a lot done...which is good because our to-do list is long!
Project include:

• Tree removal
• New roof
• New windows
• New exterior railing, 
• New driveway and patio
• New kitchen that opens up to the family room
• 2 bathroom remodels
• New trim
• New lighting
• New flooing upstairs and down
• AC installed
• Gas fireplaces installed upstairs and down + chimney lined

Here is the house moment after closing.

 Here it is a few hours later after many trees came down and brush got cleared out.

 We have also taken the awnings off (still on in the pic though).
