The
first thing they saw was a green and pink
living room with blue carpeting. The foyer had some sort of subway tile. Half
of the tiles were broken or loose. Walking through the living room, they came
upon the dining room. On the walls were an ugly rust-colored floral wallpaper with rust-colored shag
carpeting. Hanging crookedly was an interesting looking chandelier, covered
with fake cranberries. Garrett batted at it like a cat. Edward elbowed him.
The
kitchen was a hot mess. There were no appliances, and the laminate countertops and cabinets were falling off the walls. Plus, the
kitchen was very small for a house this size. Through another door, there was a
tiny family room with a bathroom with blue carpeting and blue floral wallpaper. Who puts carpeting in a bathroom? “I
seriously hope you got this place for a steal,
Bella.” Garrett chuckled nervously. Edward smacked his friend’s arm, giving him
a stern glare.
“I
did,” Bella giggled. “I can see the potential this place has, but we’ve got a
lot of work to do.”
“You
can say that again,” Garrett muttered under his breath.
“Don’t mind him. He
was dropped on his head as a baby,” Edward said flatly. “Now, Bella, what do
you see for this space?”
“Well,
the main floor is the living room,” she said, pointing behind us. “Foyer,
dining room, kitchen, half-bath,
and family room. I was hoping to possibly tear down
the wall between the kitchen and family room and open it up.”
“Can I
make a suggestion?” Edward said. He walked back to the kitchen and family room.
“Remove this wall and the family room altogether. We can convert a room
upstairs to be a family room. This kitchen is entirely too small for this
house. From here to the sliding door, we can put cabinets with all new
windows.”
“Don’t
forget an island. Put the gas range in there?” Garrett said.
“That
sounds perfect,” Bella breathed.
“We can
also put in a small butler’s pantry between the kitchen and the dining room.
Another client did that, using it as a bar-slash-storage for their serving
pieces,” Edward smiled. “I don’t know what you have, furniture wise, but that
could be beneficial.”
