GLENVILLE RENOVATIONS - LIVING ROOM AND LAUNDRY

So with the approaching hurricane, I am looking for a distraction. I figured I would start highlighting some of the renovation before and after photos from our Glenville Ave Project. I never did complete that with Hull Rd (our last project), and I had regretted it. I did not want to make that mistake again!

We had a lot to work on with Glenville. The house was built in 1941 and had gone through minimal updates. We began with the living room and laundry. There was a lot to do including:

• Trim and Wall Repair

• Floor Refinshing

• Bookcase repair

• Door Fixing

• Removal of debris

• Fireplace insert removal

• Relocation of the Water Heater (it was in the kitchen - we moved it to open up space in the kitchen for cabinets; this is typical of the 1940’s homes)

• Replaced all windows

• Replaced sheet vinyl flooring in the laundry room with luxury vinyl tile

• Ceiling repair and paint

• Paint, paint, and paint!

The final product was clean and simple. We used Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray in eggshell which is one of my favorite greiges/grays . it has enough warmth in it to be cozy, but not so much that it turns something beige. The trim is nearly Sherwin Williams Extra White in a semi-gloss. The laundry room flooring is by Shaw Matrix in Franklin Hickory.

I will talk about the floor staining in another post, so for now, enjoy the befores and afters!

I hope you enjoyed the before and afters of the living room! Stay tuned for the rest of the series! Stay safe during the hurricane please!

WESTMONT DRIVE GETS A MAKEOVER

Happy Memorial Day!  I hope you and your family have had the opportunity for some fun family time this weekend.  We jumped in the car yesterday and went to Wilmington to watch Terry Sanford (our local high school) compete for a spot in the state championship for baseball.  While we were there, we hit Wrightsville Beach for some sun and waves.  Of course, the kids had a blast and so did Carl and I. 

It has been fun showing off the Westmont house to new clients.  One of the reasons I have enjoyed it so much is that our current clients have decorating taste that is fresh, modern and really fun.  They have been all over the world and have collected many treasures along their path.  Most people that see the home ask me if they can rent it with everything inside of it!  Not only do we appreciate them taking care of our home, but we love how much everyone else is enjoying it.  

I just had to update the site with some new photos of their work.  Although both of them are highly successful in their current positions, I am pretty confident that they could switch to interior design and have a stack of clients waiting.  It's fun o see the same space take on a completely different vibe.

Without further ado, I give you the Westmont Home transformation!  Enjoy this fun photo montage of fun design!

I hope you enjoyed your house tour!  I know I enjoy every minute in this beautiful space!  This home is still available for leasing this July and it is also for sale.  Schedule a viewing today!
