4828 - the beginning

oct 27 - closing time. we purchased a vintaged condo that was built in 1909. the building has 6 condos total. 3 on each side. the building faces the east with a front yard and a back parking lot. we look forward to large and small renovation projects along the way. this site will allow us to share with friends, family, and others the pain and results of restoring rooms in the arts and crafts period while modernizing for today.

condo basics - around 1700 sq ft. 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bath, front sunroom, formal dining room, back utility room. built in pantry, hutches, bookcases, picture molding, etc from 1909. red brick fireplace, victorian style steam radiators. kitchen updated with granite counter tops and new black appliances.

see other post for the previous owner's for sale pictures. we will be posting details with each project we undertake. we hope you will enjoy our mistakes, mishaps, and finished projects as much as we do.
