Well, we’ve done it. We’ve signed a contract with a building remodeler and we have our building permit.

We will be redoing the kitchen, and getting rid of the flat roof above the kitchen by puting a bedroom above. We will also be adding a wraparound porch/entry/sunroom/gardenjunk room with arbors at each end. These will all be 8 ft. wide on the south end of the house with lots of windows but with an overhang to keep out the summer sun.

Our kitchen walls and cabinets are from the 1940s, the cooktop is from 1957 and our ceiling has water damage from before we repaired the flat roof. The walls and cupboards are very dark wood and some of the doors do not close properly. Also, the plumbing under the sink is very strange and we now have a leak in one of the pipes down there.
