  • MASTER BATHROOM: AFTER

    Ladies and Gentlemen! I am so excited to share with you the final outcome of our Master Bathroom remodel. It was a long design process for me. I am a perfectionist, which can be a blessing but it can also be a curse. I tend to question my choices and look for the perfect solution.… [Continue Reading]

    MASTER BATHROOM: AFTER
  • Laundry Room

    We didn’t have a Laundry room – we just had washer and dryer randomly placed in the Master Bathroom. There was no storage and no room to fold the laundry. Not to mention the fact that you barely could fit in front of the dryer when the doors were open. We had Laundry Traffic Jams… [Continue Reading]

  • Master Bathroom: Before and After

    How about that for an upgrade? I sincerely could not have been happier with how the bathroom turned out. We rebuilt and move slightly (2″) partition wall. Things you do when you are working with a tight space but you have MAGNIFICENT plans for the bathroom. OUT with the 90s soak in jet tub, IN… [Continue Reading]

    Master Bathroom: Before and After
  • MASTER BATHROOM BEFORE

    Our Master Bathroom was somewhat of a time machine. You walked in there and instantly you felt like you are back in the 90’s, and Brandon from Beverly Hills 902010 will jump out of the shower. In summary: wood cabinets, outdated fixtures, soak in Jacuzzi tub; all that combined with a dysfunctional laundry room and… [Continue Reading]

THE HOUSE INTRO

In 2015 my husband and I bought this outdated Mid-Century Modern gem located in Barrington, Illinois.

Purchasing our second home was not an easy process. We shared a good number of fights: I want this, I want that, this is too expensive, this one doesn’t have good schools. Blah blah blah. As per usual I was super picky and determined to find a perfect home for us. The only thing my husband asked for was: for the house to be within our budget, to have a garage and a basement. Well this house has neither and was on the top of our budget. This gives you a glimpse to how living with me looks like ha.

What the house was though – it was different from anything that we have seen. Flat roof, brick grey exterior, large windows and a modern character plus the orange door!
Once we pulled it in the driveway we knew this was it. It had a great structure, but lots to wish for on the inside. Regardless of outdated interiors – I was able to see it. I knew it is our place to live.

It’s a 3000 Sq.Ft home with 3 bedroom, 2 baths, an office, family room and a screened in porch.
In this post I’m sharing photos of how the house looked like when we bought it. To see how the house looks like now, feel free to take a look around on the blog.
