You made a great purchase, I love the home and I’m sure whatever you choose will be wonderful! My personal recommendation is to Keep the beautiful original match box floors (saving yourself some money as well). Just match the tile you put in the entrance/mud room in the places the flooring doesn’t exist (& bathroom) to make it cohesive and look intentional! Them being a dark color will be wonderful too. Lastly try to put the kitchen/island incorporating the columns so they aren’t awkwardly out in the middle of the house. Best wishes and can’t wait to see the final result(:

Catherine, I appreciate your thoughts! The columns, along with the wall will be removed so hopefully it won't be awkward as it is currently designed. Will take your flooring ideas into consideration. Thanks for watching!

Dunno how I got here, but I like how you intend to keep most of the original features of the home. Another option is finding someone to match the original hardwood with fresh thin planks throughout so you don't have to worry about sanding.

Thanks for the input! They apparently don’t make the 1inch hardwoods anymore so it would have to be 1.5inch and the minimum. It’s a thought, we’ll see with budget, etc!

For the master bedroom, how about reducing the number of bedrooms and take the master across to the sun filled bedroom and enlarge that space. In doing this it will allow room to place the master bath on the street side of the home and the pluming for both bathrooms remain on the same side of the house. Just a thought 😊

one of the homes best features!

You’ve got real hardwoods. I would sand and stain it darker. Nothing better than real hardwoods. Also, there’s a beautiful motif next to the front door.

I appreciate your thoughts. The challenge is budget, since adding hardwood is more expensive, and it not being waterproof in the kitchen, or matching a different type of floor for the kitchen.

People pay alot of money for built in closets . They are really quite nice.

Do you think removing the walls in kitchen will lose a lot of the character of the home? Where it will look more cut and paste like track home?

@jakefromtheblock 3 месяца назад

Scott, thanks for the comment. It was my concern originally, however after much thought, in order to maximize its appeal and square footage of the home, I figured opening up the space and enlarging the kitchen was more desirable for this specific property. If the home had more special original and desirable characters such as built-in wood pieces as many of the craftsman homes on the island has, then I probably would not have removed it. Another note is that there aren't many fully remodeled and open floorplan craftsman's in the area, so counter-intuitively, it may have its own uniqueness and character. Time will tell.
