The renovation that took place in 2016 was extensive. Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, some windows and both bathrooms and kitchen were fully remodeled. The intent; to install timeless, quality features that would last another 50 years (as the previous finishings did!). Living simply; focusing on the relationships and interactions that we each need, was top of mind when remodeling. More quality and less distraction – the owners felt they accomplished this quit well.
The living room and dining room are the epicenter of the home (as they are many). Immediately your captivated by original Pine Floors, Waynes Cot and Crown Molding. All original and intentional preserved during the renovation, so as to not to strip this historic beauty of her charm and originality.
The simple beauty continues into the spacious kitchen. The original cooking unit (yes – the chimney!) was refinished and preserved. Red brick exposed on all three floors. My favorite thing about this kitchen is the cozy and bright nook. Perfect for any occasion.
Bonus – You can see Mount Rainier from the couch. 🙂
Three bedrooms upstairs and the 4th on the main floor. Each with their own “master size” closet.
We finish the interior tour in the basement. 900 square feet of unfinished space, already fully insulated and ready for your final touches.
Happy Holidays! And House Shopping!
