It is such a huge job to take on remodeling a house and admit that I've never had the note to do it. We bought our flat brand new and now that it's 7 years old, we're moving back to renting instead of doing any real work on it. 😆

I only say this half jokingly because, even though my dad is a carpenter, and my mom is super hard working on anything that can be fixed, letting me or my partner have a real interest in extensive interior design or house refurbishment. Hats off to you both for taking on such a gargantuan task to make a house at home.

I love the wall decor/wallpaper in the upstairs living room! I hope you're keeping that - it looks so local!

Even better - it is a hand painted stenciled mural done by the previous owner. We love it and have no plans to change it! -Andrea (Jake’s wife)
