Weird staging, tho. Hardly any sitting in the living room and the second room should have had some type of small dining table.
The dining area was in the kitchen
Re; the plantings. Those plants are a mix of annuals and perennials. And TENDER perennials at that. So a large portion of them will not survive for very long, and could be dead in a week, depending on sunshine/shade and water. Don't throw away money on plants unless you know what you are buying and where it will go - make sure it's suited for the climate and location.
It turned out beautiful although I’m sorry you took away the clawfoot tub I think you could’ve made it work
Yes, when I saw the clawfoot tub my eyes popped.
At least they didn’t completely remove the tub and make it into a shower only space. I’ve seen this done in many so-called renovations. I would never buy a house without a bathtub but each to their own. This house might look pretty on video but can you imagine living in a house without curtains or blinds. Fishbowls come to mind…
The buyers pay for what they want.
I think they're keeping it for themselves
Beautiful home but I personally dislike all the open shelving in the kitchen. Some upper cabinets would have been nice for extra storage.
they wouldn't fit there are windows there
Yea me too sometimes they do shelves while they can do cabinets for more storage and clean look.
The existing kitchen cabinetry could have been repainted and handles added but having decided to go down the route of replacement, what was the thinking that led to @7:59?
Whenever I see open shelving in a kitchen I just think how much extra washing the items on those shelves will require. No matter how good a stove vent is, there will be airborne grease from cooking. The shelving is a trend that looks good but makes little sense from a functional standpoint.
Dang! I would have kept the claw foot bathtub!
Glad to see that you did not ruin the cabinets that came out. I hope they were donated to Habitat or someone such.
Would like to have had the
Claw foot tub left in.
I like the way there is not a
Demo shown....then go to the reveal , though a longer, slower reveal.
In these days lots of people throw the tubs out . They want walk in showers.
@@connycatlady7429: they didn't get a walk in shower, though rather that rather strange low bath that North Americans have with a shower head on the wall.
I love everything except the trendy whitewashed floors. I can never get behind those in such old houses. But the point was to get it to sell, so trendy floors are where it's at.
What's funny is I lived in the house for 8 years. And he totally knew there were hardwood floors. Also there is a basement that's literally crumbling. And it's sad about that tub I miss it so much. 😢
You lived in that house? So cool
Where is it? Looks like Gig Harbor?
There should be at least one wall of cupboards instead of two walls with open shelves. Where are the new owners supposed to store their dishes, glassware, pots, pans, etc...
I don't understand open shelving, its very high maintenance, and unless you have beautiful, unique crockery/ dinner ware, you just end up putting all your mismatched, random stuff up there and it ultimately looks untidy!!
@@margieinnes4638 Exactly! It looks pretty when viewing it but I’m guessing the new owners will hate those shelves in time.
What happened to the refrigerator??? I see no refrigerator in the reno. Where it was they now have the round table and chairs.
@@jnbond i was wondering about the fridge too, mabe they put in a small one that fits under the counter. if so ...unpractical.
The only way the painting could cost $1,000 is for the owners to do the painting themselves. Paint alone would cost about $200-$400.
Profit made, everyones happy, "win win situation" job well done.
Love this setup. Very nice. Fair and square. Love the reno as well. 🥰
I thought the house was really cute, but almost died when you ditched the clawfoot tub! NO WAY would I ever agree to that.
Everyone want to judge. I think it looks amazing and obviously someone else did too.
Whitewashed hardwood floor? Blasphemy!
Right? It looks horrible 🤦
Painted floors never wear well.
Normally I'd agree, but you can see at least two different colors of hardwood when they lifted the existing floors. Maybe they couldn't make it work within budget and had no choice but to paint them.
Not real hardwood….looks and sound like laminate
SO over open concept, gray, white, and ugly tile. They found hardwood floors, and ruined them! There was a stovepipe hole-why not a fireplace? And why not continue the porch railing in front of the chairs to add charm and some privacy?
It's a tiny house and I would have said that it didn't matter in this case except that it did. If you look @4:31 and continue watching, taking down the rock wall has lost two pockets of space.
Is there a refrigerator?
I went through the video a couple of times and couldn't see one.
Refrigerator??? I see no refrigerator in the new kitchen. Maybe the full episode shows it but not in this trimmed down video.
I feel like the show starts in the middle of a conversation - where is the lead in, summary, or just an overall explanation of what is going on?
I still not sold on the idea of these hardwood floor it has teeny tiny space between it i cant think anybody be comfortable with that.
They literally just made 97% of the house white lol
At 5:29 the retaining wall on the left is not enough to stop eroding of the ground and the house is already located (on the right) at an edge of ground that slopes even more so, plus there is no outdoor privacy from the elevated houses. 😐
The outside is lovely and it was a smart decision to remove the bulky wall
Love this house, it is amazing ❤
I'm impressed with how clean the owners start you girls with. I'd be concerned with water drainage and erosion.
Why would an owner not only give them back their original 30k but also split the profit when they didn't put a dime into the purchase price?
I think that’s what they do, they just did not explain it very well!
Dont touch those floors!! Annnnd - how do they factor in a sales commission in the final costs?
Oh, they've got an old bath tub! Ladies, do not get rid of the tub!
There are very reasonable changes, aspacialy back yard. May be a little pity of previous kitchen furniture. I liked it. But...totally - Cogratulations.
Gee. Just what I want to see when I walk into a house - a sink filled with dirt dishes.
Great location wow
I'd be tempted to obstruct street view of the house because it appears house has sunk. Shrubs and ornamental tree, rocks.
They shouldn't have gotten rid of that stone wall. That's what's trending now. It looked so nice.
Where's the fridge?
Where is the fridge?
Oh no!!! You oust'd the tub!! Tsk tsk 😢 The rest looks great.
Floors were beautiful before.
I see why the floors were covered...
A house in a hole. Must be fun in snow and ice.
Absolutely detest open shelves In
the kitchen. It makes it look clutteted.. imo
Omg that wife has some heavy energy.
Why would you paint a pretty floor?
I hate the floors
Wow
Those floors look awful
Am I the only one concerned about flooding potential on that lot!
I live in this neighborhood. (My house is briefly in the clip.) We have natural springs on Rucker Hill so the unfinished basement probably does get water during heavy rains unless they install a French drain as many of us have done.
Did not like the living room and what should of been the dining room afterwards. Why did you remove the claw foot tub. Bedrooms too small.
❤❤
How stupid to take out the ball and claw tub - so comfortable.
I would do them both.
Leslie & Lyndsay. !!!
Sadly they wont do you. 🤣
