After being in our house for about eight months, I'm finally sharing a bit about our road to finding it! Plus all of (and only) the "before" photos because my goal is to share individual room "afters" as we slowly update and make this house our home.
But first, a bit of background. Tad owned his own first home before we got married. He bought his little "bungalow" back in 2017. We were dating when he purchased it, and thinking that I'd someday live there with him, I gave him my blessing (not like it really mattered, ha!), as well as a few renovation ideas I had after initially seeing it. The inside of what we will call the Eastside Bungalow was actually super clean and cute. Everything was painted a nice light grey, the trim white, cabinets white, and nice neutral floors. But, one thing to note about this home is its size. It clocked in at about 667 square feet — perfect for one person but a little snug for two.
Proud new homeowner! |
I still love everything about this! |
This house was a middle ground for us. There's me, who was all about finding a true fixer-upper, and then there's Tad, who was willing to do a little remodeling but didn't want to have to tear walls down to the studs. This home has great bones and was kept clean (it only had one owner before us), but there's still room for renovations, such as the exterior, the kitchen, the bathrooms, and the basement.
After our wedding, we lived in the Eastside Bungalow for about one month before moving to our new Pleasant Hill home. Scroll down to check it out!

While supplanting a rooftop, it is a great opportunity to think about supplanting drains too.
