50 makeovers

thanks! I am glad of the reaction here, since one day I'll probibly have to sell it and i wanted it to have universal-appeal.

I bought it back in 2001, at just over 300k, and spent about 75 on the reno. My neighbor on the 2nd floor just sold for about 800, so i think it will be worth it even tho the renovation was expensive. *fingers crossed*

Actually that is a clothes washer that doesn't match. The dishwaser does, it's further into the kitchen. The washer only came in white and silver.. so I went with what was closets to match. I guess a small price to pay for laundry in house, but definetly not perfect yea. :)

Simon is ready!

Really nice work.I like it.:)

looks really good, im still renovating my house that i bought about 6 months ago. its going slow but im almost done.

Ah, never seen that around here. Good idea then.
I was lucky enough to get insuit laundry via a 10x12 laundry/storage room.

My Condo with 1400 sq ft I got at 150k, and is now worth about 230k.
But for me to put the 40k I want into it would only get me about 10k more over what its worth now, which sucks in a way because I would love to do the reno.

Look great. COngrats on the renovation! If you wanna save more space in the living room, go with a nice wall mounted flat screen. :)

Looks beautiful! Congrats :)

I have been waiting for the hubby to decide on one for weeks now! I think we will go with a panasonic 42" as soon as he decides to part with the $$.... I can't wait, it should look great. :)

looks nice :)

Looks awesome! Love the wood floors

thanks, after having carpet for a few years in cali my feet are feeling it a bit more.. but i love the way the wood looks for sure.

wow 75k seems like a lot for the renovation. what did you get done?

looks very nice

WOW!! You really had a nice place out there!! Congrats!!

Looks comfy

Awesome nest... a very nice place you have there!

oops.. hiccups

It was almost a complete gut, new hardwood floors, everything new in the bathroom with kohler and toto fixtures, everything new in the kitchen with bosch and asko appliances, storage units added above the closest, fresh plaster and paint on the walls. Yes, it was definetly expensive, but I think it will pay for itself when I sell. My brother is renovating his house in Maine and tried to goa cheaper route, but he is having to get a lot of the work redone because it wasnt done right the first time.... So maybe in the end what I paid won't turn out to be too bad? Also, it seems like everything in NY costs extra. :)

Wow, what a great difference!

My next job is to redo the kitchen - nothing as major as yours though. It's hard to tell yours is the same kitchen. Congrats and enjoy :)

Nice place:) Cute cats! :winkwink:

nice..I wish I had skills to redo my house..

cool place - so do you come with the content offer? :1orglaugh :thumbsup
