Here is my new old house

Philupthegastank
9 years ago

its a 2,200 sq ft two story house with some acreage. I ripped out all the old plumbing and put in all new copper/pvc, and moved the bathroom from its old location next to the kitchen (going to turn it into a pantry) to a den. its a huge bathroom... which made my wife happy.

We are going to re wire, re insulate and re drywall in spring. I already took down all the plaster, and the lathe is next, so im going to tear that out myself, and then put in r19 batts. I have two rooms with lead paint to worry about it.

It was probably a big mistake to buy it. Im only 24, and my wife and I had very large hopes and dreams, but we are very worn and poor now haha, so if anyone wants it for 55k, let me know ;)

We are going to add a 2nd story bathroom, and a wood stove. the windows, roof and siding are all new from 3 years ago, and we just put on new gutters on the north side of the house
