5906 Marilyn: New Doors

Here are pics of the new doors from inside and out.  The biggest improvement is moving the living room to a much bigger space.  It can now fit a couch, love seat, and chair.  The old could barely fit a couch & chair.  It’s MUCH more comfortable.

Are you doing any of this work yourself or do you have a contractor?

Eric,
I’ve been very impressed that you can supervise this remodel and still have enough time for your regular RE duties. It’s been fun watching your updates and I think that others find the process equally interesting. Can’t wait for the final reveal.

You should record the final result with a video camera and embed it so we can get an idea of what the final product looks like.

Nice looking doors, \how much did they set you back?

Definitely looks nice.
It’s amazing how a little improvement does a lot to the look of a place, especially the entrance because that is the first thing someone see as they approach the house.

I talked to an architect once and he mentioned that a lot of companies spend a lot of design money on the entry to a building, so that is definitely on theme with this improvement.

WOW! What a journey this remodel has been and I cannot wait to see the finished product. The front doors almost make it look like a whole different house, and so much more open. It looks fabulous!

I would say the doors are great. I like those large glasses in them when you can see the whole street outside. It makes your house so roomy.

Eric,
I absolutely love the doors for moving larger items in and out of the house. PLUS the natural lighting is priceless.

Nice double doors. It does make it a lot easier to get furniture in and out of the house.

I really like the open layout of the house and the doors really add to that openness. I wish I could see more. It look like my kind of house.
