Before we begin, let me tell you that our new house needs alot of work, but this is the reason why we chose it. We love the potential of the house and the fact that we are going to be able to makeover the entire house just how we want to.
Throughout the entire house searching process, we came across so many houses that we really liked, but there was always one or two things that we did not want to settle for. If you know me at all, you know that I can be extremely picky, and would probably never be happy living in a house that I wasn't able to change. So after a little help from my family to see past the clutter and envisioning what the house could be one day, we decided to jump at the opportunity.
So, let's start...

Here is the house from the street...
The living room from the front entrance...
Did I tell you how much clutter there was... Can you even tell that there is a fireplace?
The other half of the Living Room/Dining Room...
The kitchen...
On the left, you can see the corner of the Washing Machine and when we pulled out the dishwasher, it is just a big empty whole! Lovelyyyy...
And the other wall of the kitchen...
Refrigerator works!!!
Now, here is the hallway...
Hardwood floor, not bad...
But, the beautifully panelled walls have got to go.
Here is the bathroom...
Two of my favorite colors, but this is a little much.
Sorry, the first one is a little blurry...
Master Bedroom...
Has potential??

And the closet...
Hopefully we can make this work...

Bedroom #2
I told you about the clutter right???
Bedroom #3
Maybe Dining Room or Eat-In-Kitchen? Do you see that doorway on the left, well that is actually a small closet in the kitchen, veryyy interestinggg...
Now, for one of my favorite features of the house, the Three Season Room.
Yes, it needs some work, but I can really see us spending alot of time out here!
And, here is the back of the house and probably the most attractive quality of all, the hugeeee yard. I mean the front is big, but we love this backyard.
So, there it is, Our First House.
Not much to look at right now, but we have so many ideas and are soooo excited to get started!!!
We will keep you filled in on our progress, so stay tuned...
Congratulations! Such potential...I loveee a good fixer upper! We had a blast making our house just how we wanted it. Good luck with the process! :)
