Some "Before" Pictures

Here is what we saw the first time we went into the home - your basic mid-70's doublewide. It's a Golden West Calypso with a really funky looking kitchen!


Some of these pictures aren't that great. The interior was really very dark, mostly I think because of the panelling. However, there were also drapes or curtains on every window and that really darkens a room.

The dining room - 

I see potential! There is quite a nice full dining set and it's in great condition.

I just have to look past those tired panelled walls and the floral border running around the top of the walls.

Dining area/Living room - 

Can you just see the buffet on the far left of the shot?

The dining area is quite large and has a good sized window.

It also has very tired curtains and some flower arrangements that need to go.

You can also see part of the Living room - same tired curtains.

There is no border along the ceiling so that's a plus!

It's very dark inside and that is probably just because of the walls. 

Sure, this was a popular look in the 70's but now that we are well into 

the new millenium, things have got to change. 

Next up, before pictures of the kitchen and breakfast room.
