Lake House "Inside" Before and Afters

Yay it's time for the story everyone waits for.  Now for the before and afters of the inside of the house.  This season here in Florida is coming to a close so we are just about finished for the year.  Next year will be another story.


Now for the fun:



Standing at the "old" front door:

Now…without the brick wall:

Inside the kitchen looking to the "old" front door which is hidden:

Opened up:

The old kitchen:

And now:

Not even a refrigerator:

Now with lights and an island:

Old big kitchen:

Looking into the old dining room:

We painted, added some solar shades so we can still see the views but gave the room some privacy and added an area rug, lighting, a picture and furniture:

The old den and the very ugly blinds:

New blinds are in and we are set up for some fun:

The old den, which was the "original" garage:

Now it will work nicely as a game room.  We still need to move the solar panels but that is for next year.

The master bedroom before:

And after:

The guest room before:

And after:

We still have the bathrooms to do but since they were in good shape we left them for another time.

The old step down hallway from the dining room the the sliding door and cut through to the living room:

New hallway with level floor:

Ooh…here it is, our favorite part of the living room, not, lol.

Our new living room:

We are finished for the season on the inside of the house.  Yay…next year we can do some more.  We have the kids coming this week and then we will jump back outside for the curbing and hopefully soem planting.  That's all for now.  I will post again next week.
