Little House in the Big Woods!

 When we bought our house in 2019 it had been very neglected.  We loved the almost 100 trees on three acres, the smaller floorplan, and the location was absolutely perfect.

But the house?  Bleh.......

But as our realtor reminded us, you can change the house, but you can't change the location or the large number of mature trees.

So before we moved in we had the interior of the house completely redone.  It's amazing what new paint, flooring, windows, kitchen cabinet doors and drawers, and a lovely new granite counter top can do to improve the look of the house!  We were thrilled at how it turned out.

Getting the interior all reworked allowed us to move in and start living there.

But the outside?  Dark brown paint that was peeling in a variety of places.

The back of the house.



New, lighter color going on!



Half and Half!



The west side, where the walkout daylight end is, was the absolute worst!  
Lots of sun damage.



What a difference THREE coats of paint makes!



The weather was very lovely for Scott and his crew, up until the last day or two when it
got rather nippy.  But they got the job done!
Now we are deciding whether to put black shutters on the front or not.......


We are so happy with the way it all turned out!
