Hi!
I'm new here and just purchase the house that I've been renting for a couple of years. It was built in 1918, with the kitchen and bathroom at the back of the house added later but still in the early 20th century (likely in the 1940s), and then renovated later - maybe the 80s or so. The house is currently 700 square feet with a front porch and a side deck. For reasons that are not clear to me, there is no door facing towards the garage.
I'm going to be doing quite a lot of work on this house. My goal is not to restore it as a historical structure, but to maintain the original style while updating the architecture and making it more conducive to modern life. Right now I have space to entertain exactly two guests. I could have more, but they would have to go in a different room so they couldn't interact with the rest of us.
There's a TON of stuff to do, but I have it broken up into more manageable projects, starting with re-doing my bedroom. The floor looks beautiful. The walls need work.
