The House in Maldonado

LOTS of you have asked if we were taking before and after pictures of our house. The answer is that yes, we have, although a number of our photos have had to be discarded as we're having some sort of regular problem with our camera. But for those who have been besieging me with requests for photos, I'm going to try and upload some for you!

First off, here are pictures of the front and back of the house, taken in early February when the work was just getting started.






In April, during an unusually strong storm, the septic tank "floated" up into the back yard, creating quite a mess!


When you enter our house, there is an entry way, with lots of windows. You then walk into the dining room/living room combination. The house was apparently built in at least 3 stages. The step up into the dining room marks one of the areas where the house (probably originally a small beach house getaway) was expanded. Here are the "before" pictures from February.





"During" photos, from early April





"After" photos from early June





I've got visitors on the way, but I'll try and post more of the house later today!
