Ahhh! Our addition to Two Holt is complete--well, almost complete. We still have a bit of painting and framing of the master bath mirror. But we're on to the next phase--remodeling the original cottage.
Remember how it looked?
Remember how it looked?
Our living room--four people in here was the maximum!
Another living room view
The living room pictured above will become the dining room, but, as you can see below, it will be open concept through the kitchen, dining room, and living room.
This picture is taken from the far end of the new living room area looking back at the dining room and kitchen areas. You can also see the newly framed powder room.
We removed the tub,vanity, toilet, and cabinet from the bathroom. It has been reframed to be a powder room with a toilet and pedestal sink. We gained additional space for the living room and removed more of the wall between the kitchen and new living room.

Newly framed powder room
The contractor added a shelf ledge at the top of the powder room framing.
The original bedroom walls were removed to become part of the new living room along with a 7 x 20 foot section of the new addition. The dropped ceiling was removed and we'll have a vaulted ceiling with collar beams.

A view of our new living room area
Our new fireplace with flanking bookshelves will be built along the living room wall. The window will be removed and that is approximately the spot for the fireplace.
Across from the living room fireplace and bookshelves will be the powder room. We will add double windows on this wall.
We have about four to six weeks more work to go. We're waiting on the plumber, insulator, and electrician to work on the cottage renovation followed by the sheetrock crew and then on to the finish trim. What a job this has been! Will it ever end?
