RENOVATION OVERVIEW FOR THE LAKEHOUSE

3/9/2020

Today, we are sharing an overview of the renovation plan for the lake house! We will dive into each space in greater detail in future posts. For now, here is a rough outline of what we would like to do to the home, including some pictures that are serving as inspiration! 

EXTERIOR

Let's begin with the exterior. We are going to be busy this summer! We will tackle the exterior after the interior is complete. We plan to replace the siding with new, vertical steel siding that will look like shiplap (which is a new product that looks incredible!) We would like to replace the front door with something more modern that will let in more light. Unfortunately, the roof is new so it needs to stay. I don't love the color, so I may DIY painting the roof! TBD. Otherwise, we will work with the brown shingles (she types begrudgingly). ​The trim will be painted a fresh new color. We are debating - I want white, Ty wants navy. We plan to build an expansive porch (as the front of the house overlooks the lake) and redo the landscaping...I'm thinking a simple row of white hydrangeas!

​Here's are two images that are inspiring me!

ENTRY

We will rip out the built in storage, redo the drywall, replace the light fixture, and add some coat hooks above a built in bench!

I love this little scene!

LIVING ROOM

This room has the BEST view of the lake! Hence, we are going to replace that small window with an 80" window spanning nearly the width of the room. We will also be refinishing or replacing the hardwood. We will add six to eight canned lights to brighten up the space.

Here is a mood board I threw together....likely, this will evolve and change, but it's a starting point!

​DINING ROOM

Along with new hardwood, we will replace all of the trim and redo the drywall. We also plan to open up the wall between the kitchen and dining room.

I've got my sights set on similar chairs to the dining space below! (Even though Ty is voting no because he prefers "something more comfortable"....blah blah blah)

KITCHEN

This kitchen is getting TOTALLY redesigned. We will create a u-shaped workspace. We'll move the range to the right, install a custom exhaust hood, add more windows, and incorporate open shelving. We will share ALL the details in another post. We plan to shiplap the ceiling, too!

BEDROOM #1

For now, this will be the master bedroom. We plan to ship lap the entire room, install new trim around the windows, replace the fan, and refinish or replace the hardware floors. In a few years, we MAY  blow out the back wall and add on a master suite. This room would become the master bedroom's "sitting area" or office. We would build a large bedroom with vaulted ceilings, and an attached bathroom and walk-in closet. Okay, I'm getting ahead of myself!

​I've crafted a design board for the space incorporating pieces we already own, as well as some new items including this CB2 bed frame.

BATHROOM

YIKES!!! Full gut in here. Tile, tub, vanity, ceiling...the works.

Here is a mood board I have created for the bathroom!

BEDROOMS #2 & #3

The room went from the most dreaded space, to the space that we are MOST excited for. We are going to paint all of the paneling a fresh white; put in light, comfortable carpet; and replace the lighting. This bunk space is going to be fun and whimsical....you just wait.

​Below is a sneak peek of the design we have created for the bunk space (which will also house an office)!

BASEMENT

Oh the basement. We are going to finish the majority of the space with drywall, new carpet, a proper ceiling, and new windows. It's scary, but we have a plan to add 400 square feet to our cute Cape Cod by finishing this space!

​BACKYARD

Our dream backyard. The Ada house was on a wooded acre covered in ivy. Frankly, it was too much yard for us. In contrast, the condo, obviously, has no yard! While we love the no maintenance life, we are excited to have a small space to curate. We would like to add a modern wood fence, hang string lights, DIY a patio, find some fun lounge furniture, AND maybe a hot tub (would love to make this space the dream WINTER airBNB....I'm even researching igloos.....more on that later).
