These people did not expect to buy this house. They lived comfortably in their old house with their dog and two young kids. There was no need to move.
However, when an opportunity like this one comes around, you take it. This house was gorgeous and huge. It had a large back yard, high velocity air conditioning, lovely Victorian era details, and wallpaper. There was wallpaper in every room. They despised wallpaper. So, they called me to come in shortly after they moved in to help out.
The kitchen was their highest priority, because they did not want the wallpaper or the old and dated cabinets. They could not afford to change out all of the cabinets, so we painted them and gave everything a more modern feel.
The bathroom had wallpaper above the tile and another layer as a border at the top of the wall.
Fortunately, there was no wallpaper in the bedroom, but the previous owners painted the ceiling and walls yellow. My “after” photo came out a little pink, but the color is a beige.
