Home Improvement Update

Mid-century modern pad build in 1957. Previous owner was a widow for 10 years prior to our 2003 purchase. That means the place had really gone to sh|t. Changes we've done that aren't pictured:

- remodeled a full bathroom
- replaced all flooring on top level (with carpet, hardwood and vinyl)
- replaced roof
- replaced several windows and a sliding patio door
- some interior painting
- removed a free-standing fireplace on hideous turquoise-colored bricks, replaced sub-floor, drywall, etc.
- replaced some dry rotted siding
- drainage work

I'm sure I'm missing stuff. And we're not close to being done. In hindsight, I should have spent an extra $100K or whatever and bought a house that didn't need so much work. Oh well, I do feel better about the place.
