We have been leaving in our house for almost 6 years. Before we moved in, the last major update had been done in the early 1970's. Alot was still left from the addition in the early 1950's. Yes, we still have the green shag brick pattern carpet in part of the house. Due to limited funding, we have approached things slowly- kitchen, both bathrooms, central heat and air, front porch, paint, lighting (new electrical wiring- ugh), and yard stuff. Our master bedroom has been last, aside from the bathroom that we have already done. Before we recarpet and say good by to the shag- we are redoing our closet!!! My grandad built in the originals in the early 1970's....
Bucky tore things out on Saturday and the drywall guy started today! Hopefully by this weekend, I will functional, white, bifold door bliss!
