Earlier this year, you showed us your hundreds of incredible home remodels. See which ones were finalists, and get ready to enter your own in the 2013 Reader Remodel Contest
We love everything about this remodel! Our favorite parts would be the front porch; the open concept, which gives it an airy/beach cottage kind of feel; the unique "catwalk" connecting the master bedroom to the bathroom; and the character of the old hardwood flooring and the original doors and hardware. We painted the interior/exterior ourselves, pulled up carpet, assembled kitchen cabinets, reused all interior doors and original solid-brass hardware/knobs, took flagstone pieces around the yard and reused them for the front entrance, used a house designer for the plans, and contributed sweat equity when possible.
Who did the work: I did some of the work myself, but a contractor did most of it. Cost: More than $100,000
