Our tenants recently moved out, left their side of the house in decent condition. But, they owned several CATS, so you can imagine what we were left with.......needless to say, we will be heavily cleaning with Clorox and anything else that will help with odor removal. I know once the flooring is sanded and the walls are primed and painted that will help too.
These are pics of the upstairs bedrooms on the tenant side. Above, you can see some of the bead board sagging from water damage, this will be replaced :( .......ahhh, the ins and outs of renovations!
Our contractor will take these space heaters, we will be installing central heat and air. The bead board is in good condition, so we will definitely keep these walls the way they are. We will replace the chair rail, baseboard, and add crown moulding though.
Below, is a picture of what will be the master bedroom. We've got alot of work to do in here. We are going to open it up a little more to make space for a cozy little reading area and also french doors opening to the porch on the side of the house.
Mike's dad came to help remove carpet. Yes, we have invested in respirators for these tasks! No telling what kind of particles were floating around in the air when that carpet was removed!
The wood floors upstairs on both sides are in good shape, so they will be refinished!
Above is a picture of the tenant side kitchen. This house was originally built by a cotton mill to house its workers, it has been a duplex from the day it was built. This kitchen floor has alot of damage underneath, so we will replace the floor and sub floor. We are planning to turn this into our office.Below, are views into the master bedroom from the existing kitchen (soon to be office). The wall with windows on it to the left will be completely closed in b/c we are adding a master bath on the other side of it.
