The dining room before. Something you can't see because it isn't there (yet) is insulation. There was nothing going on behind that wood panelling.
Once again the most interseting aspect of this living room is the part you can't see. If you were to continue on through the room the wood floor would come to an abrupt stop and turn into a fake brick linoleum (covering another similarly patterned layer of fake brick lineoleum). The "brick" abuts a nice 4 by 10 section of good looking tile.
This is the original hall bath. Those of you who are not detail oriented will please notice that the floor is covered in carpet. The carpet is covering rotted subfloor! As an aside, every place we have lived has attempted to force seafoam green on us but do not despair, we fought back!
This is the adorable little bathroom that couldn't. It is the bathroom that is in the original master and was the first room we tackled mainly because it had no toilet and we wanted to rip the hall bath apart. The original owners had some funny ideas about plumbing and the shower used to drain directly under the house. Bill sure enjoyed climbing under the house to fix that.
This is also the room that convinced me that we were going to need professional help if we wanted to tackle the rest of the house. I find it has definitely helped us being annoyed with the hired hands rather than our own house and each other :)
