Bedroom 3 Remodel

This bedroom was pretty much the same process as Bedroom 2 was (see previous post). The only difference was that there was a closet door that I moved from this bedroom to the hallway.

Here's the pics from move in day.

 

Bedroom 2 Remodel

The bedrooms in this house were in decent shape. This one had really bad paneling on one wall, bad windows, and a really dated 1970's style ceiling fan.

 

Building a Garage

After removing the garden shed, as seen here: Cleaning Up The Property, I decided I needed an extra garage.

The first step was to bust out the old broken up slab.

Cleaning Up The Property: Structure Removal

There were several junky old structures on the property, other than the shed that I turned into a garden in a previous post.

There was this:

It was a junky old garage that was completely rotted out, and was falling over. It had a gravel floor in it.

Interruption #2: Custom Harley Build - Bobber / Chopper

Once in a while I decide to focus on something else. I bought this bike in August, and spent November through the following August customizing and rebuilding it. It's nice to take a break from house related work, and to learn something new!

Here's what I started with. It's a 2006 Harley Sportster 1200C.

The Family Bathroom Project

I've finally finished another room in the house. The upstairs hallway bathroom.

I'm going to mix this post up a bit, and put all the pics side by side: pre-remodel next to the finished result of the same part of the room. That should better show off how drastic the change is.

I'm really happy with how this turned out. All told it was around 90 hours of work, over the last few months. It cost around $3,500.

Here's how it looked before I started. At this point I had already replaced the old rotten wooden window, as well as the toilet. The floor was vinyl, and the fixtures were dated back to the 70's.

In this pic you can see I redid the trim, and tiled the floor.

Complete Landscaping

Since we're in the dead of Winter right now, I thought I'd post a Summer project. Late this Summer I finished all of the landscaping that was on my list.

Here's a reminder of the way the landscaping looked when I bought the house. At best it can be described as non-existant, at worst: a disaster.

The Master Bathroom Project

When I purchased this home, there was no Master Bathroom. There was this really weird side room in the hallway, that shared a wall with the Master Bedroom.

 As you can see, it was some kind of craft room or something; maybe an office.
