It’s still a work in progress. People have been asking for updated photos of the upstairs. We are still unpacking and taking our time arranging everything, so we have not posted that many new photos. We will post complete photos once everything is unpacked, paintings hung, and everything is organized. 

Until then, here are a few photos. We installed new light bulbs above the kitchen island. The original Edison Bulbs were not bright enough. We love the stainless steel countertop!!!!!

Our office areas and breakfast table. Lots of open space!!!!

Our bedroom area. We are trying out a new bed cover:)

And finally our front door. We are restoring an antique buffet to place next to the door.

Here are some more pictures.

The outside stairs. They will be placing the HVAC cooling units underneith.

Our new floors. We still have to seal the brick. This will be a sitting area.

The original handrail going downstairs. These were from the original building. We stripped them down and will stain them once construction is complete.

The half wall along the stairs.

And finally another photo of the shower flooring.

This week they started installing the sub-floor and preparing to frame out the walls.

We also started to gather the plumbing fixtures.

Upstairs will have our Master Bath with a half bath for guests. Downstairs will consist of 2 ADA Compliant bathrooms in the retail area. We are converting an Antique Vanity with 2 vessel sinks for the Master Bath and then the rest will be simple pedestal sinks.

The next couple of weeks will consist of framing out the walls for the bathrooms and closets, plumbing, and the start of the electrical.

Continue to keep an eye out for weekly updates.

This past week they started the leveling of the upstairs floor joists. Below are some photos and a video of how they are doing it. Basically they placed a laser at each end and are sistering the existing joists with new wood making everything level.
