The floor is a combination of new and existing oak strip flooring that was sanded and finished with an all natural resin/oil and waxed.

Before: Dangerous steps, dated looking brick facade and iron railings and useless sloped lawn.

New front steps, walls and landscaping. Note the 70 year old stone wall, patched and re-pointed and ready for another seventy.

Before: Plenty of room for improvement.

Now: New door, windows, siding, steps, porch and patio with Trex railings and beautiful landscaping.

Rear entrance features trellis, ready for plants to climb upon it.

Reworked foyer with vaulted ceiling and Murano glass light fixture.

Dining and living rooms.

Ready for Christmas.
