Exterior
Our house went on the market today. I kind of have a pit in my stomach. I'm super excited about our new adventures, but kind of can't believe this chapter will be coming to an end. (Granted, it could take awhile, but just the fact that over 30 people were in our house without us there kind of feels like it's not just completely ours anymore). Over the course of the years, I've mentioned various house improvements we've done. But only a few people have seen the mess we purchased six and a half years ago. I actually gasp each time I look at these pictures. Here's the before (on the left) and after (on the right) images.

Yes, it was crazy. Even crazier was that we started this project a month before C was born (we had to move into a temporary apartment the weekend before Brian started a new job, and three weeks before C was born -- we were there seven months). We tend to take on projects like this. Was it worth it? Despite the headaches and stress, I definitely think so. We really enjoy living here.

This is still amazing to me and totally sad all at the same time. You'll end up in the perfect place for sure!!
What a transformation. I'm so sorry that you're leaving us. But now we'll know one more family up north.
If I ever have the itch to completely renovate a home, you two are the first people I will consult with. You're visionaries, that's for sure! It's an incredible home.
I love the long double sink in the bathroom. Where is it from?
@erin - that's my favorite piece in the house too! It's Hastings, purchased at Max Gerber, which is now, sadly closed.
Hi Angela,
came across your photos of the before and after. great vision & dedication. nice !!
where did you get the sideboard next to your dining table benches - the 4 door-white one ?
Thanks
Anu
@Anu - someone (rightfully) called us out on the blog by having a few IKEA pieces and this is one of them -- purchased many years ago (12+?). We spent a long time trying to find an affordable sideboard option, and ended up with this. We'll upgrade one of these days, but for now, it works just fine.
