From previous writings, you can see that we have created an expansion on the second floor over the existing kitchen. The new construction will be our master bath and closet. We have a total of four (4) bedrooms on the second floor. We are putting a doorway between two (2) of the bedrooms which will allow us to have a sitting room and/or office off the master bedroom. The attached pictures show the status of the expansion and a plan of the bathroom and closet. I really like the plan of a stackable washer and dryer located in the closet combined with laundry room off the kitchen downstairs.
The kitchen cabinets will be ordered this week from the Lowe's in Shelby, NC. Great timing as Home Depot is running a 10% off special order cabinets which Lowes is honoring. I expect to start the installation of floor joists this week and the selection of an HVAC contractor.
Your journal truly is a wonderful telling of the journey of pain/joy of renovating an older home. Whether you realize it or not, you have made tremendous progress and you are beginning to breathe life back into a beautiful house. Keep up the good work and may God bless you as you turn this house into your home.
