New House Part 2

A few weeks ago I shared our new house along with the downstairs.  Today, we will head upstairs as well as show the kitchen!

The kitchen was fully renovated by the previous owners.  There are gorgeous granite countertops, custom cabinets and of course the farmhouse sink!




 This is the eat in section of the kitchen, I will post more pictures soon with the table set up.

Front staircase and hall upstairs.


We were so excited that the master was big enough for us to upgrade from a full size bed to a king size bed finally!  After way too many years with a full size bed and two dogs it was time.  You can see the doorway off of the master to the balcony.  The railing is a bit too low, something we need to fix in the spring.


There is a bedroom next to the master that will someday, hopefully, become a nursery.  In the meantime it's an extra guest bedroom.

We don't have a master bath but there is a bathroom in the middle of the house connecting the two sides. You must walk through the bathroom to get to the rest of the rooms or walk downstairs through the house.  What can I say old houses have odd layouts sometimes.

This is a bonus room upstairs, that currently serves zero purpose other than to house my husband's many hunting clothes.   I hope to turn it into a play room when we have kids.  There is access to a secret staircase in this room that leads into the kitchen.   At bottom of the stairs is a built in pantry so you can't actually use it fully as a staircase.

Another room upstairs is my husband's office.  There are some great built ins that were probably added in the 1950's.

In the back of the house above the garage and addition to the house is the guest bathroom.  

Lastly,  is the guest bedroom.  Since the guest bath and bedroom are in the back of the house we jokingly call it the "South Wing".  

So that is basically it!  Minus the garage, shed and yard.   A new post with our holiday decorating is coming.   It's always fun in a new house to find out where to decorate!
