True grit! Staying tuned to see what develops!
Ooh! That floor is already looking good.
Question: Are you planning to leave the door, or remove it? And if it won’t be a door any more, will it become a window or a wall?
Agreed.
Remove.
Wall.
Thanks! Very kind of you to reply.
Will that become a shower alcove?
Any chance of a big claw foot tub?
Is that other Justin or Justin of the Justin/Scott team? I couldn’t tell….
He is doing an amazing job on the floor!
Carriage House transformation is amazing! From a wreck to a lovely complement to the Cross House!!
There’s something so oddly hilarious about the enormity and beauty of the original windows against…. a ceiling fan I can imagine being in my childhood home, and wallpaper the same. The passage of time is a weird thing.
Looking good already!
That is going to be a cool bathroom, I don’t remember seeing the inside of the turret room I like the windows and the floor looks great.
My back aches in empathetic memory of the drum sander, and my knees twinge at the sight of the edger in the background. Curious to see Sanding Justin chained to the drum sander. Is it to keep the machine, or Justin from running away?
Methinks the latter, John!
Same stain as the kitchen?
That ceiling fan does have to go, although I so understand the desire for circulation. I have one in my bedroom I would never give up. But I replaced the light kit with a vintage chandelier.
You can put a chandelier in the bathroom. No law says you can’t. Such a beautiful location in the turret, you could have the fanciest wallpaper and light fixture you wanted. Since the turret is a bit of a departure from the rest of the house the bathroom can be too. You have more freedom in the bathroom than in the rest of the Carriage House turned 1921 residence. There is nothing to hold you back from going wild in that bathroom.
I look forward to seeing what you do with it.
The jawbreaker color layers of the walls are a great visual!
Oooh what a sweet room.
That would be my secret room…just for me to read in. And look out those windows and just “be”.
Of course, you can read in the tub too!!
It is wonderful how, 100 years ago, a home for horses was recycled into a home for people…and now it is being restored so that it will continue for another 100+ years. It is too bad that human kind has “advanced” to the point where anything old is seen as outdated, and the only “fix” is to knock it down and build something new. Our town recently enacted a residential TIF district, and I was initially hopeful that people would use the incentives to buy a renovate/restore the older homes in the area; instead, they are tearing them down right and left and throwing up cheap cookie-cutter houses in their place.
The Other Justin is not going anywhere, being chained to the sander. Welcome to the chain gang. Lovely flooring.
