Our Home Before Tour

This blog is long overdue and I have been wanting to write this for so long but you know life happens. But today is the day! We have been busy remodeling our home it’s far from being done. Not sure we will ever be done remodeling but that’s okay because I love to do these projects.

We have lived in our home for three years now and we have made a lot of changes and improvements. I thought it would be fun to look back at all our projects and make it a new series. I will post a different project we have accomplished on our home! Each week or each month let me know in the comments which you prefer Weekly or Monthly!

I have posted a couple of remodeling blogs but thought before I post more I need to do a BEFORE Tour of our home! You can check them out here.

Grab a cup of coffee and let’s start at the beginning, shall we!?

So here we go!

We bought this house back in December 2017 and our first night here was New Year’s Eve! It’s a very unique home with 2 bedrooms 2 baths and sits on 2 1/2 acres of land.

I loved our old home and neighborhood but we wanted more space. I wanted a big garden, chickens a greenhouse….

These pictures are from one of our showings before purchasing this home. It was in the evening so some of the pictures are a bit dark. I’m sorry for the poor-quality images.

Welcome to our home!

Yep, that’s right we bought a geodesic dome!

Our Soon to be orchard The owners ended up taking the Conex boxes with them. Bummer! We had plans to use them! We tried our best to keep them!

Old Green House

I really wanted to save this greenhouse but it was too far gone so we had to take it down. You can check out that blog here.

This was originally built for a Mother in Law house but was never finished. It had a bathroom, kitchen, loft, and open space.

Large Laundry and Mudroom with lots of storage.

Hot tub room!

Yep, what 70’s home isn’t complete without a hot tub room just off the dining room and kitchen?

I love these large windows we took the sheets of as soon as we bought the house.

Here is the Main floor bedroom which we have made into our bedroom even though the upstairs is meant to be the master bedroom.
