More of Bowers Hollow...

Okay, here is our "Full Disclosures" on the Bowers Hollow home. (the current 2nd offer)

First, the pics all come from the realtor.

I hate realtor pics... they don't know how to capture a house. From searching through hundreds of home listings and then going to see properties, I can say that the pics never do the home justice for good or for bad. They can make a horrible house look fabulous on-line and vs. vs.

Most of the pics are blurry... I will walk you through them. Of course they are all over the place as for as "order" goes... so here we go....

The front of the home...

Part of the kitchen. Granite counter tops and all new black appliances. We will be adding upper cabinets to the wall on the left... the door straight ahead is the pantry. there is hollowed out space for bar stools to sit up to this island for the kiddos to eat at and not ruin carpet... (always a bonus for the zoo crew)
See, out of order. Now we are in the first part of the master bath. Dual sinks, tub, stand up shower, off to the right is the toilet. Straight ahead is a BIG walk in closet that has a dividing pillar in the middle... that is what you see in this pic. The back wall of the closet is probably another five feet beyond that visible pillar.
One of the bedrooms... ooooohhhh awwwww, yeah not exciting... moving on.

This is standing at the entry of the kitchen and looking out over the formal dining / living room. Our dining table and bench/chairs will look great with that dining light.... bonus.

I've already commissioned Lance to encase the existing 'mantle' (that white stucco knobby thing above the fireplace) with a nice wooden mantle the will fit over this existing thing and will actually be functional and painted black.

This is the laundry room leading out to the garage. It does have a small counter space/cabinet thing off to the left.

A different part of the kitchen. A new black stove/oven sits here with a black microwave above it. This pic shows it before they had them installed. The empty space to the right off the counter top and cabinets will have a matching pantry built in (yes, two in one kitchen... heaven). This will have power in it. Hide all the phone chargers etc. It is just a dead space now... it will be holding my bread maker, kitchen aid mixer, food processor... and so forth.

Standing at the front door looking at the living/dining and through the kitchen to the family room way in the back. That is the back door and window that are glowing... Carpets throughout are clean and no damage. We'll keep them for a while. The tile is clean and starts at the front door and goes throughout the kitchen/laundry and family rooms.

Very dark picture of family room standing in the kitchen. The dog door located near the back door will be removed and the wall patched and the outside stucco filled in as well. No need to supply the Tank with another escape hatch. :o)

The inset wall to the left is painted a really bright yellow and will soon be red. This will 'house' my piano and the entertainment center armoir-thing.

This is the backyard. The home is foreclosed so the water has been off... hence the dead grass. New sod will be put in. A large cement pad will be put along the back of the house. Lance must have a place for his precious barbecue. Then over the pad will be a arbor to help shade the area but still allow for great light.

So there you have it... the tour of Bowers Hollow. I hope you enjoyed your visit.

Please come and see us once we have debugged the place (lots of spiders - yuck), cleaned, painted the walls, hung the ceiling fans, cleaned, moved our things in, hung pictures, cleaned and have the kitchen and backyard done. Soooooooo, give us a week ~ at least! :o)

I'm kidding... well sorta. Lance knows I don't do well with half-finished things... so this may move faster than he realizes.
