The Basic Tour Continues: Upstairs

If you need to review the main floor, you can check it out here.

All caught up? Then on we go. Let's imagine we're back in the parlor.

Stairs!

In the parlor, right around the corner from the doorway into the dining room, is a door that takes you upstairs to the three additional bedrooms and the bonus attic room.

Upstairs landing

Directly ahead is the first bedroom, which we're calling the "green room." Next to that on the left is a second bedroom, and across the hall (so, behind the wall on the left in this picture) is the back bedroom. You can just see a door on the right in this picture, and that's what leads into the bonus attic space that's over the dining room and kitchen.

Bonus room in the attic

The bonus attic room is quite large, and we're not really sure yet what we'll end up doing with it. So far, Chris has done a lot of work just to clean it out and repair the rafters in this space. In the middle of this picture, you see the chimney that I mentioned in the last post -- it's being supported by a closet in the dining room, but it's not in use as a chimney anymore, so it'll be coming out in order to open up the space on the first floor.

Green room

Here's the green room, named for pretty obvious reasons. This is a "day one" photo, so there have already been updates to this space.

Paneling room

This paneled beauty is the bedroom next to the green room -- both of these bedrooms overlook the front yard. Again, lots of work has been done here. This picture already doesn't show the flooring that was in place when we first purchased the house.

Back bedroom

Last one -- this is the back bedroom. It's in the best shape of all the rooms in the house, so probably not a lot of work will end up going into that space.

And that's the farm! Now you can have a sense of where we are as future posts come up.
