Comments (40)Allie the cost is right at 135/sqft. Not inclusive of the lot. High end finishes planned for the inside. White oak wide plank floors. 7". High end appliances Kohler farmhouse sink, large tile shower etc.....There will be some brick out front made to resemble a brick foundation not the 4 foot brick you see on a lot of homes. The siding alone was about 30k install included :( It is DiamondKote LP SmartSide. It does look soooo much better than vinyl though which is the norm around here in about 98% of new homes. The front and back porches, as well as the eyebrow, will be galvalume metal. Had to wait for siding to be done to install. cpartist- Yes they are ordered and finalized,. The cabinets are white Haas inset in the kitchen with full overlay gray stained island. White/gray full overlay elsewhere depending on the room. Cambria Ella quartz also....See Moredecorating a rustic farmhouse/Cabin style home
Comments (27)Here is a home with a mix of white and wood trim - I would leave the beautiful trim wood, but if there are rooms with cheaper wood trim, those could go white. https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/Pacific-Grove-CA/fsba,fsbo,fore,cmsn_lt/pf,mmm_pt/house_type/19323966_zpid/33300_rid/globalrelevanceex_sort/36.65933,-121.861554,36.568252,-121.980858_rect/12_zm/? If you have solid wood doors, don't paint them, though do what you like to hollow core or MDF doors. Wood with white trim is a pretty combo: Painted wood panel doors can be a pain to upkeep - the painted door show more scratches and the wood moves with changes in temp and humidity causing hairline cracks at the joints. Wood paneled doors are classic - less susceptible to changes in paint / style trends I have a similar kitchen which I did in a vintage style without painting the cabinets. I used the Kohler Whitehaven "short apron" style farm sink which can be installed on a standard sink base cabinet: https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~93784356 https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~93784291 If you don't want to do a farm sink, but give the feel of one, curtain the sink base. This is my basement kitchenette which I put together with some of my original kitchen cabinets (refinished) and my old cast iron sink. https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~65270573 Some inexpensive ideas for decor are vintage china plates (I spent less then a few dollars on many of mine), botanical art, floral art and vintage finds....See Moreupdating a farmhouse style and making it my own.

Comments (27)Determining what can or cannot be changed based on budget is perfectly reasonable. We don't all have unlimited resources and sometimes have to make things work. There is also no crime in owning a small space. You know you need to de-clutter, but it sounds like you are having difficulty figuring out what you need and finding space for what need. My advice is to go through everything - but only get rid of the things you are sure you don't need/want. Place a small rubber band around each item (Handle of pots and pans, around the cords for small appliances, over the handles of serving spoons. . . For plates, platters, bowls ... buy a few sheets of tags and place one on each item. Put stuff away. Throughout the year, as you use things remove the rubber bands and stickers. Next fall you will know everything that has a sticker or a rubber band was not used in the past year and is not serving a useful purpose. (this works for clothing, books, all kinds of things in your home where parting with the items causes stress). To utilize the space above the cabinets buy enough containers to line up from one end to the other. Measure the space you have from top of cabinets to the ceiling to figure out what height. You probably have 12" from the wall to the front of the cabinets - get something narrower than this. Place a white sheet of paper on the front side and list what is inside each container. They will have a uniform look straight across the kitchen. Far better than the 100 individual multi-colored items stacked on top of the cabinets now. Amazon Link to bins that may work For the ceilings - the best fix if you can't replace is paint. Remover tiles. Prime with a good sealing, stain blocking primer. Paint the ceiling tiles and the metal grid all the same color. (White). Replace the ceiling tiles. If I were working with your kitchen I would not paint the cabinets - just clean. I would get a peel and stick backsplash - Back Splash really doesn't take a ton of abuse - this will work for a cosmetic update. I would look for something with blue and yellow I like this one Peel and stick Yellow and Blue I would then tackle removing or painting the wood panel wall - I would paint a nice soft yellow to work with the new back splash. Paint the trim and baseboard White. It looks like your countertop is square edged laminate. I would also cover the laminate counter top with sheet laminate. Not hard to do - get nice white counter tops for a couple hundred dollars. Take the curtain off the door - not needed, not adding any decorative value. I would also recolor the grout on the floor - make it match the tile. Here is a very rough idea of what it could look like with minimal investment....See Moremiss lindsey (She/Her)
