Cera's Remodeling Project

Here is our before and after pictures. I hope you enjoy them.
Please notice the background picture of the Fisherman and his dog. This was taken right outside the back door of our cabin.

 

View of house before taken this winter
and the new look this fall. Notice we changed the color to a caramel color with hunter green trim. It really makes it look larger. We also added the larger garage between the cabin and the house.

Then below we have our first snow storm in the new house

Snow Storm

This is the view of the front porch and deck as it looks over the river. It will be wonderful to sit on the deck in the summer for a barbecue.

View of house from the back before and after. You will see the gazebo that we added on the west end that houses our new hot tub.

Kitchen and living room with wall hiding the view of the river. We have taken out the wall and added a pole for the post and a new beam in the ceiling. I then added an island stove so as I cook I can watch the view. We also have taken out all the paneling and added drywall to brighten up the room.

Kitchen Before After Kitchen Hall

This is the view we have when we sit in our living room. This is truly a dream come true.

View from Living room

Kitchen: Notice that we have all new cabinets. This has opened up the kitchen and really given it a lot of light. You can also notice the logs that have been chinked. Before they were filled in with rope and did not really do a good job of sealing. The old cabinets have been put in the basement in the Great Room and Laundry Room.

Guest Bath New View.

We have added cabinets and restored the tub. It is now painted a beautiful green. The cabinets are to the left of the tub as you walk into the room. We have also restored a 1940 toilet that is not showing, but it sure adds character to the room.

View of Window in Bedroom. We have taken down the ugly drapes and added new French doors. They have really brightened up the room.

 

Also the view of the river as you wake up for the day is wonderful. Sometimes you might even be greeted by the local wildlife.

 

Basement:

This is what it looked like before.

Basement Before

We have turned it into a Great Room with room for a fireplace. Our exercise equipment or just a place to get away. You can walk out to the creek through the south on the south side and mingle with the wildlife.

The other side of the basement has been turned into a large laundry room with the cabinets from the old kitchen to form a wonderful storage and folding area. The cabinets are on the opposite side of the room and gives me plenty of room to do my sewing crafts or whatever else my hearts desires. This room almost makes laundry fun.

So then after a wonderful day in our new home we can sit back and watch the sun set. What a wonderful end to a perfect day.
