Hey guys welcome to my house on "My Block" come on in.
We've been in Quail Valley a little over eight years and we started this
renovation project about a year ago and we got to the point to where we sat down
and said, "are we gonna stay here, and if we're gonna stay here let's really just
make this house everything that we want it to be."
A couple of things we had to consider was fashion versus function. Did we want
a home that was beautiful but maybe not comfortable. We decided that we really
kind of wanted it to be a home where you could always be comfortable.
So for us it was really important to make this a family home, a place where we
could all gather not just with the five of us, but with extended family. Taking
out this built-in wet bar not only opened up the living room, but it also
opened up the kitchen here and gave us a great line of sight all the way through
the common areas. So once we got in here where I'm standing right now there was a
large island. We took the island out so we can just walk through. We can walk
around the countertops and to all the appliances really easily before it was
kind of open the fridge and shimmy past the island. We don't have to do that
anymore. We had just a single door pantry over here, so this space was my pantry
and over here was a double oven. So what we did is we put barn doors in here
pantries on this side and I have a little appliance garage right here, so we
tucked the microwave away we tucked away the coffeepot. I've got my extra
appliances blenders and everything up there since we lost a little bit of
space when we got rid of the island and then we just put in a single oven and
flip top combo. Our kids are still small, they still like to cuddle up with us and
we decided that we really kind of wanted it to be a home where you could always
be comfortable so we got the massive sectional and
everybody can be on the couch comfortably. We got a big dining table, so
we could all sit around and eat dinner together and it was comfortable to have
friends and family over at the same time, and we didn't have to separate the kids
to another room. We also in the kitchen went for everything to be counter height
so it's just easier for the kids to crawl up in a standard sized chair
rather than a bar stool. We have an extra room in the house that could have been a
formal dining room or formal living room and we opted to make that sort of a
rec room for the kids. After we decided that we wanted it to be comfy and
functional it with basically up to me. Anybody that knows me knows that my
favorite color is, black. So I wanted to find ways to put pops of black in the house
but still make it lively and cheery and not so morose. We did some black doors. We
did a lot of black and white accents, all the backsplash in the kitchen and in the
converted bar area. The bathroom in our room is black white and
gray. I love it it's really clean I feel like it's timeless and it's easy to mix
and match. So the bathrooms the kitchen the living room the mudroom everything
is the same color gray which also makes it really nice for touch-ups. We've made
this home our own and that's what's most important and that's what we really want
to feature when we're on My Block. We want to see how you have made your home
your own.
