New House--Before Pics

Please keep in mind that we didn't buy a foreclosure house that was move-in ready. Not even close. We bought one like you see on Flip This House. It needs a lot of work and it's not fancy by any means! But, we are not fancy people. With 3 kids, fancy is just not practical. Here is a glimpse of the house before.

**Please just click on the pictures to see the full view. Joshua is screaming because it's bedtime and I don't have time to go back and fix all of the pictures from photobucket**

This is the front of the house, looking from the street. We are planning on doing some landscaping, but that will happen after we move in. This will include flowers and boxwoods.

The Garage that will hopefully be enclosed soon.

A little closet off of the garage.

Living Room

This will be painted burgundy and trimmed in white. The stone wall will stay (too hard/expensive to remove) but the stone slab will be removed and a fireplace and mantle installed. Opposite of this stone wall is a plain wall that will be home to my beloved portrait of Scarlett O'Hara. :)

Kitchen

This will have stainless and black appliances, new hardware, new lighting, painted a goldish yellow, new glazed porcelain tile floors, and most likely new granite counter tops.

Dining Area

This will also be painted golish yellow because it flows into the kitchen.

Kids' Bathroom

This will be painted blue and have the same tile as the kitchen. We also removed the flower stickers, much to Olivia's dismay.

Olivia's Room

This will be painted pale pink with a chair rail. The bottome half will be pale and dark pink stripes. Her choice. It will also have new carpet.

Jacob's Room

This will be painted blue and decorated in a sports theme. We will include the Armuchee "Rockin' A" in white on one wall. (I can't find a picture of the "Rockin' A at the moment.) It will also have new carpet.

Master Bedroom

This will be painted blueish gray and will also have new carpet.

Master Bath

This will have the same tile as the kitchen, dining, and other bathroom. It will be painted khaki.

Back of the house

We hope to add on 2 more bedrooms, 1 bath, and a den/movie room. This will likely come off the right of the back door.

Another view of the back

Back yard

The back yard is completely fenced in. See that hill? That will be sooo much fun to sled down next winter!!!
