Chester Drive- Finished Product!

The time has finally come! Over a year later and it is finally finished and on the market. Remember when I talked about how frustrating real estate investment can be in the Abigail  post? Well, this project comes in at a VERY close second. After several contractors- either stealing from us, not showing up, doing work that wasn’t up to our standards- we finally brought in our most trusted crew. You know who you are. Sorry, when you find the good ones you can’t tell anyone else. They had to spend a lot of time re-doing what was already done (and paid for)…and the finished product is of course, amazing.

This is probably one of our most dramatic transformations yet. It went from this small, neglected, ugly box looking structure to a charming home with a welcoming front porch that just makes you want to walk inside.

There used to be a wall between the kitchen and living area- that you can see on the right side of this picture. That was removed and the peninsula was added making a wide open floor plan with PLENTY of counter space, as well as bar seating.
