Well, it feels like an eternity, yet it feels like yesterday all rolled into one. We bought this house back in March. We were told by our contractor that he could have it done in 8 weeks (ummm….yeah, it is AUGUST now, but ok). As you can see, that did not go as planned, but that is ok! He has still done a great job, and this place is looking amazing! I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am for you to see the final product in a couple of weeks. You WILL. NOT. BELIEVE. IT.
I don’t know if you have been following along for the whole journey, so just in case you haven’t been, let me refresh you with 2 BEFORE pictures.

Ok, so there are TONS more before pictures in THIS POST, but you can get the idea. We have literally had to gut every single thing about this house. It has gotten a new roof, plumbing, electrical, insulation, HVAC, siding, EVERYTHING. Literally. It is a brand new house.
While it is still not complete, I wanted to show one very last update before the big reveal in about 2-3 weeks! Y’all- that will be a must see post. I want to go ahead and give you a heads up on that!
Here are some recent changes! I am only showing a few pictures because I want it to mostly be a surprise!
Peek into the kitchen! THAT FLOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pergola! I love this as an alternative to a carport! It is almost done! This would look amazing painted white! It is treated lumber, and we can’t paint it for a while, though.
Front of House!
Love the black shutters against the gray with that bright white trim! Looks awesome. The front door will be painted a beautiful color that I picked out…and landscaping and clean up will take place…but WOW y’all. What a cute home!
That is all I am showing for now. I want the final reveal to be my best pictures yet and show the true beauty of this home. I want the before and afters to AMAZE you…and trust me, they will!
What do you think so far?? We already have a list of people wanting to see it when it is officially on the market (will be for sale by owner)! I think it will sell fast. It is a wonderful home! If you are local and want to see it, contact me!

Love that floor! I don’t like carpet so I’d probably do the entire house in that flooring. I keep going back & forth looking at the before & after pix of the outside front. What big difference. I love it. Can’t wait to see the rest of the pix.
The rest of the flooring is the original hardwood 🙂 We refinished and they are beautiful! No carpet!
It’s looking great Brooke – but what has surprised me is that your selling it once it is all completed? I thought you were moving in and where you are living now was only going to be temporary? The floor is looking lovely – love the colour 🙂
We are building our home on our farm 🙂 This is just a fixer upper home in town!
Ah… that’s great news 🙂
Absolutely love the floor!!! My boss just remodeled one of his rentals and used this throughout…It’s gorgeous!! Can’t wait to see the final reveal.
What kind of flooring is that I love & where did you buy it
Beautiful, can’t wait to see it completed.
Looks awesome Brooke!
Brooke, it is a charming place! Congrats on all your hard work! I want to see more pics!
