1970 home renovation | the beginnings of the boys’ bathroom reno
Warning, this is not a pretty post, but this is the reality of buying a 50+-year-old home that was mostly in original condition. While none of the rooms in this house were ugly (I think the previous owners had wonderful taste), there comes a time when the fads of the day are dated, and the wear and tear on a home warrant a redo. In the case of the boys’ bathroom, it’s just time. But, as I’ve shared before, the renovation money initially allocated for updating the two bathrooms went towards a roof (you can read about the new roof HERE), which was in worse shape than the home inspection showed. It was a smart choice, but a roof isn’t quite as fun as a new bathroom. I try to appreciate it every time I walk or drive by the house and when we have heavy rain. Fully renovating this
