If there is one word to describe this little house it would have to be sweet.  The bright and cheerful exterior color scheme, quaint kitchen, and timeless bathroom make this house something special and every single inch of this 1200 square feet house was used wisely proving that good things can come in small packages.

​

On the exterior we removed the vinyl siding that was covering up the original wood siding. With a few repairs primarily on the window casings that had been altered for the vinyl siding and some enhancements to the front porch to make it more historically accurate, the house now sits high on its little corner.  We used a soft blue/green on the siding with bright white siding and a shade of tangerine to finish off the exterior.

​

Inside we made two small changes to the layout of the house that made a big impact. First, we removed an old brick chimney to give a little extra room in the bathroom that made all of the difference.  We then moved all of the plumbing to the opposite wall and were able to refurbish the original clawfoot tub.  In the kitchen we stole a little space from the walk-in pantry to carve out a laundry nook and turned the old laundry room into heated space for a new mud room that enters the cozy kitchen.  By reworking the cabinet layout and painting the cabinets a warm shade of blue, this kitchen is now both charming and efficient.  We just love this little house!
