area for a washer and dryer. “We also redid the first-floor bedroom and bath- room, but we saved the major changes for the upstairs bedroom,” he added (see images on p. 105). Upstairs, the investors made an unusual decision: They eliminated one of the bed- rooms. “We originally had planned to push the walls back and just make a little more living space for each room, but because the roof was so steep we would have removed all the storage available up there if we did that,” Bill explained. “We did push the walls back a little bit, about 18 inches to get a little more square footage, but we also de- cided to go with one master suite upstairs instead of two little bedrooms.” When they removed the sheetrock during the early stages of the rehab (photo on p. 105), they noticed that the house had heavy,

old beams running across the ceiling. “The house looks like an A-frame house, but it’s actually not,” said Bill. “There are these big bars that run across between the two sides of the roof, and they were beautiful. We put in a tongue-and-groove ceiling, put some sealer on the beams to give them a little sheen, and left them exposed.” The result was high-end and brightened up the upstairs considerably in addition to creating a little more headspace! The two investors decided that the second bedroom would be replaced with a second bath. They added a unique shower feature with a built-in bench, an antique claw-foot tub, and a double vanity. To keep the master suite from feeling cramped, they left every- thing but the toilet closet open. “When you climb the stairs, the bathroom

vanities are immediately on your right (over the rail) and the bedroom area with a door to the deck is to your left,” said Bill. When the rehab was done, the results were exactly what the investors had hoped for. Shortly after they listed the property, a woman came to a showing and fell in love. “She went in and said ‘This is a storybook Thomas Kinkade house!” Bill crowed. After just four showings, the home sold. “I liked it to begin with, but it was absolutely beau- tiful and so high-quality when it was done,” Bill said. •
