Retro Ranch Reno: Living + Dining Room Reveal! (Ep. 13)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- The Retro Ranch Reno reveal tour continues, and today we're showing you the totally transformed living room + dining room! Our 80s rancher turned modern country escape is all about easy, breezy living with pared back neutral style, and the new living/dining combo celebrates the very best of open-concept contemporary living. The sunken living room is bright and cozy, featuring oversized furniture for that extra deep seat, kick-up-your-feet kind of lounging! Wrapped in pure white and grounded in charcoal accents, the living room is the ultimate place to relax and engage with the vibrant views of the outdoors beyond. The dining room connects openly to the living room, and is all about affordability! With an unobstructed view of both the kitchen and living room, the dining room inspires connectivity and togetherness with plenty of seating, durable, easy to clean materials and is defined by casual elegance.
Let's stay connected!

Another home run by Sarah! It is cozy which I didn’t think it would be but yup, you pulled it off. And you did it during one of the most stressful times ever heaped upon your plate.
😀
I love a neutral palate when you have a gorgeous view, Let nature add the color. Pops of green look so lovely with black and white.
I agree!
Sarah Richardson I just purchased a beachfront condo and I’m using antique white, black, and sand beige for the palate. The view provides all the sea and sky I could want so my art and accent pillows are watery blues to mimic the colors in the view.
I hope you get the perfect renters Sarah and Alex. You put a LOT of money and time into this project. I hope whomever is blessed enough to rent can appreciate the effort you all put in it.
Stunning, stunning, stunning 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you, thank you, thank you Merry!!
I have watched you since I was on maternity leave in 1991! U never disappoint ! Classic, timeless and beautiful, both u and your design lol
Wow, thank you!
Me too! I used to tape The Painted Room so I could watch it and rewind the parts I liked best
1991? How old is Sarah? 😳She looks fabulous
I cannot believe how much I have learned abut pattern, colour and texture. I really do feel like I could follow Sarah's rules and do an ok job. Thanks Sarah.
So beautiful Sarah! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much!
Stunning Sarah.
That is an absolutely gorgeous fireplace. I have watched this video about 6 times, just so I could keep looking at it. Girl, you knocked this out of the park. That fireplace is now on my ‘Gotta have it!” wish list. It is now one of my relationship goals! YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
You did great, as always! Love, love,, love it all!
Thank you so much Patsy!!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
NO WORDS!!
Well okay, one word... GENIUS!!
Okay, more words.... I bet there’s a house in Heaven that looks very much like this. If so I want to live there.
Hahaha thanks!
You are one amazing designer! I love your work 👍
Thank you 😀
I love a sunken living room! Amazing result! Love it!
Thanks so much! 😊
Just gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
The wall that was taken down did serve a purpose. It helped to separate the main bathroom access from the dining area. Now the bathroom is directly across from the dining room, especially because the dining table has been pushed to that end. You can see into the bathroom when seated at the dining room table. Also, there seems to be so much wasted space in front of those french doors.
So incredible...great job!!!
Thanks Mary! I appreciate the kind words!
Love the crisp, fresh feeling! 🤍🤍🤍
Stunning!
Thank you Sherri! 😊
Gorgeous white!!
It really is!
This is like a study on how to make IKEA look DESIGNER. Love it.
I couldn't agree more. Sarah know what's up. Genius!!!!
Well done as usual!!!!
Thank you Susan!
It’s beautiful. Congratulations
Thank you! 🤗
Sarah Richardson...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How doooo you do it ?
The one type of living room I have ~ never ~ever ~ ever liked or thought could ever be improved is a "sunken living room ".
I can't believe how beautiful it is now and how gorgeous it is now...you are amazing at what you do.
Oh my my my ... talk about " improve a room " ... 👍🏻
Impressive transformation ... all of it. 🏆
Thank you for sharing 🙋🏼 🇨🇦
P.S. I also ~ lovvvvved ~ the lighting fixtures.💡
Thanks!
Congratulations Sarah and complete team!!
Today I want to express kudos to Alex (and team) thank you for your amazing job on photography - the beautiful lines, camera pans truly capture the full design - warmth, cohesiveness, attention to detail, clarity of thought, - I could go on. Then, you manage to get the right closeup and in editing, add it at the right time.
THANK YOU
🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦
Thank you so much!
NAILED IT!!!!!!! 👌🏾 Love the mantle 💯 Love the color palette 💯 Love the floor lamps 💯 Love the candlesticks 💯 Love the pendants 💯 LOVE the overall lighting conversation 💯 Love the flooring 💯 Love the rug 💯 Love the dining area 💯
Very chic, Sarah!! and IKEA!!!!??!?! WOW 🤩 You DID that!!
Hahaha wow thanks so much Chris!
Over the years I've watched you, and one thing I noticed, the less money your given the brighter you shine.....Wonderful. Are you all coming to do Apartments in NYC.
Rondy Miller LOL... I’m a New York State resident too ( for 63 years ) I say we leave the USA and head to Canada! LOL!!!!
Agree.. the challenge of a smaller budget brings some great results.
Love this Sarah!
Thanks!
beautiful ... and so smart
Thank you! 😊
Sarah, you are so well spoken. Do you get offers to do "voice overs"? You don't stutter; you speak like you know what you are talking about with lots of confidence and I know that you know what you are talking about. You can't fake that. It's amazing and I love how you describe every thing your thoughts behind the design and how the turn out compares to what you originally had in mind. You've got a great imagination for creating things and making them different every house or project you are working on. You do Canada proud. May you have continued success in ALL that you do. You and Alex bounce off each other well. He knows when not to say anything and he is also your cheer-leader. I am glad when he does get his say in the decision making as well. Great team work!!
Beautiful spaces that are totally coordinated. Love it! You’re the best interior designer😊
great to see a project that really is MOSTLY cosmetic. Using the existing bones and Sarahfying it. I agree with painting the wood... the stairs in the middle make so much sense ( some think a handrail but I am not sure it is necessary). Great idea to create a sideboard with same cupboards! Lighting is simply but stylish. All yummy looking. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
I would completely live here. This being a rental, the choices that were made provide the perfect backdrop for the renter to express their personality by adding color thru their personal items. Pictures, rugs, bedding, dishes, etc. Sarah has laid the perfect formula for anyone to make this space their “own”. Thank you for the inspiration and so many interesting, refreshing ideas.
Thank you!
I gotta say "Wow "! Simply beautiful. I so completely love the design of this home. I love that I can take what you have done here and repeat it in my own space. Light and airy is perfect.
Thank you so much!
make sure those flowers never die in that living room 'cause that color is sorely needed.
Sarah has great design style. Love, love, love all her projects. By the way, Sarah looks like Kate Middleton.
This is beautiful Sarah. You did good with the lighting choices. They are great and just seem to fit with each other. My mother once told me to paint everything inside white or just off white and that was 30 years ago! People often comment how open my homes feel (even the tiny ones...) I hope you are going to keep sharing your work with us - I have been watching you for years (first on TV and now YT) and the outcomes you create are a complete joy. Thank you. Cheers, Deb T (NZ)
Thanks so much for watching Deb!
I love your taste!
Beautiful! If you see these comments, not only am I a fan, but my 4 year old is too. We watch old shows on the Dabl network every day. She says, “Mommy, you’re favorite show is on! And it’s mine too! “
Aw, thanks so much!
The rug texture matches the texture of the painted paneling...omg...I love everything about the living room. I am going to research the Glidden paint and the fireplace surround for my own living room!
Thanks!
...except for the cow chairs, they belong in the bard yard.
You’re right, that is the perfect shade of white, which so many of us that are not the beautiful, Sarah Richardson, would chose. It’s perfect for this space. My favourite?....I love the added cabinet in the dining room with the waterfall top, especially how it mimics the kitchen cabinets. As I was watching this I thought , just as you said, Sarah, it appears to be floating. It’s perfect! So lovely. The living room is beautiful! The rug, the fireplace, the furniture...so amazing! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🤗💕
Thank you!!
Absolutely stunning! Your best yet.
The house is awesome and so are YOU Sarah! I could listen to you for days...your knowledge, enthusiasm, and so many great ideas! I also love how so many pieces are affordable and can be easily accessed at Ikea. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the house
Wow, thank you!
It doesn't look like the same house. Beautiful transformation. ❤🤗. I'm addicted to your design style.
Thank you! 😊
I LOVE IT!!! Opening up the three spaces was a great idea because no matter if there are people scattered through out the whole space you can interact with everyone. The white walls and furniture leave so many options to change the pop colors and patterns. By not having window treatments, makes the whole area look happy and not closed in. Being able to see the view outside is an added plus because you never know what kind of wildlife may come to visit, just sayin lol. I will be using white in the next place I live along with fabric that has been treated with a stain protector!!!.
Thanks!!
I am learning a lot by watching your videos since you are not on tv in the United States. I have finally embraced white as a classic color (I am more for colors and shades) though I cannot stand grey unless it is used as an accent. The grey cabinets in the kitchen and the side board in the dining room is as much grey as I can handle. But oh, I do love that marble fireplace and the flooring is something I would love to install in my mother's house to update it. These longer reveals also give us a view of inside your thinking and it shows so much on how we should view our spaces, looking at the bones and what can be achieved rather than just going with what is in fashion at the time. I also must congratulate you on your book, "Collected". I bought a signed copy and when I opened it at random I saw my dream kitchen. It was so surreal, I have dreamed about having this kitchen for years and to open a book and see exactly what I was wanting was so cool. Thumbs up on the house so far, can't wait to see the rest, especially the outside color change.
Thanks for sharing! 🤗
Stunning as always ....I would just worry how grubby it would get especially in the rental market
Im glad you like it Elaine! When it comes to rentals you always run the risk of things getting dirty or damaged. Try to rent to people whom you feel will treat the space right!
I'm a big fan generally; in fact, I've never seen one of Sarah's projects that I didn't like...but this house just doesn't do it for me. Feels very cold and boring. I felt that way about the kitchen and entry, and now I feel that way about the living and dining room. There needs to be more texture or color...and certainly more warmth. The rug is cool and the fireplace is nice...but it doesn't fix the overall feeling you get from seeing this room. I couldn't even imagine trying to take a nap in this room. I'd shiver so much that I'd have to go take a warm shower.
Jeff MB - I agree! And in a rural area of Canada where there is snow from the end of October until April at best! As a ski lodge rental, it is going to have high heating bills, as the people staying there are going to need to warm up.
If I were a young family looking for a rental NO WAY would I let my kids in there!!! DANGER DANGER DANGER all that white!! It is a very adult space...but most of Sarah's are..never have a seen a space she did any kids I know wouldn't destroy. "Light Bright Airy" to me reads stark/cold/sterile...I know it's been asked but as yet I haven't heard the answer, Who is your customer target with this rental? Seems like sitting in that living-room on a snowy winter's day would feel like you are sitting in the snow bank.
Oh my Sarah! This house was SCREEEEEAMINNNNG for this makeover. It's saying - thank you thank you thank you to you.
Hahaha thanks for watching!
The sideboard in the dining room is stunning. The crisp white counter top, waterfall edge, and the white kick truly set it off. It's shallow narrow depth also makes it look more modern and custom.
Glad you like it!
Love it! 😍
So glad! Thank you Terri!
I have watched all your shows. Love your style always enjoy your reveals. Always chic. My favorite was the living room from Sarah's House 4. HGTV USA need a show with you. OHH Really loved all the Sarah's seasons. the back split was so glam and fabulous, the farm house so warm, the city home season one was so chic and real. Totally think a family would love that space
Thanks so much for watching!
Oh Sarah... gorgeous! So your renters will walk into a FULL DECORATED HOME BY SARAH RICHARDSON! I’m not green with envy or anything !!!!!!
I’m ready to leave New York for Canada !!!!
Hehehe thanks!
I love a charcoal/black and white color scheme. When you want to change things up you can add any color. Beautiful!
I can imagine sitting in that living room, fireplace lit, watching the snowfall through the birch trees. Amazing.
Right!
Spot on I think.. I just painted part of my kitchen the same grey black.. stunning I think.
KNOCK MY SOCKS OFF!!! I am so excited to see the remaining rooms. Please don't make us wait too long. My g-daughter just purchased her first home, and I share your website and youtube so she too can make the best choices/decisions. THANK YOU for making these works of art available in the U.S. - Be safe and blessed.
Awesome, thank you!
Ok wow! Just WOW!! These spaces are perfection! I have also watched you since early the early 90’s. I was living in Alberta, Canada then. Now I’m in Florida, USA. I’ve never lost touch with you and your shows! Have to say I love having you on RUclips. I can bring you along for all I’m projects throughout the day!
Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful job Sarah. Looks amazing!! That’s it, next house. I’m buying your favourite white paint and painting everything You have converted me and I love your new rug and end tables. Beautiful ❤️
Hehehe yay!
I've been trying to find that rug. Let me know what you find out on the paint.
Totally agree with not shying away from removing a post or wall. I recently removed a post in my kitchen that was impeding my reno plans. While it cost me a bunch to remove it (ouch) and have a huge beam put in, the kitchen is no longer marred by the sight of a pole. Completely worth it! Your living room does look comfy. It will be beautiful with that fireplace going in the winter. And the firewood box - genius!
Moving the stairs was the best idea! What a difference!
Right!
Bravo!!!! You have done it again Sarah Richardson. You are a design icon!!
It's an absolutely stunning transformation. Literally night and day
The use of grey hues with that White is prefection.
Throughly enjoying your RUclips series. Excited to see more 🙌😍🌞
Thank you so much!!
Again with the gorgeousness?! This room is wonderful. You really are #stylegoals. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you so much!!
We just did some renovations on the lake house we bought last June that has a tone of tongue & grove pine. We’ve painted most of it but now seeing this I’m going to paint the rest. I thought I wouldn’t like too much white. I love this living room make over.
I love the single seat cushion of the sofas but can't find anything that isn't eye-wateringly expensive. Love the color scheme. I'm currently renovating a 1957 mid-mod and trying to get it lighten up is challenging (resistant spouse). Great ideas.!
Chic and affordable. Love it. Did anyone notice how the dining table legs and gable were sometimes charcoal and sometimes the same wood colour as the tabletop?
Love it love it love it.... The white on white is gorgeous...
Thank you so much Kim!
The side table in the dining is lovely. Like the mirroring happening there.
Symmetry lends itself to serenity.
I have never been a fan of sunken living rooms - until NOW!! What an amazing change!!! Love the after more than I hated the before and that’s saying something 🇨🇦💙🇨🇦💙🇨🇦🥂
Im so glad I could make this work for you Katherine! I hope you stay tuned cause I've got more great reveals on the way!
We had a pass-through wood box on our farmhouse growing up, but it was loaded from outside in the yard. The box door to the outside was insulated so the cold air stayed out. I remember the sound of my dad loading it before he came in from his chores in the evening.
So beautiful would really enjoy the space with my family - light😊 & bright check 👏🏾
That living room looks fabulous. If I hadn't seen the diagonal boards I would have not recognized it. Looks much bigger, too. The power of white paint.
Love the dining room sconces.
Thanks so much!
I love the rug!
Always classic and classy. Thanks for teaching the "why" to your design.
My pleasure Beth! I hope I've left you inspired!
Stunning as per usual 😍
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you, Sarah, for providing a very welcome Quarantine break! You took me along on this journey to breathtaking beauty!
So glad you enjoyed it!
It looks wonderful! I agree with you 100%, that you can’t have too much white!! The living room is the most dramatic transformation that breathes life into the entire space! Centering the stairs and adding symmetrical column and the glass panels makes everything flow comfortably! As per usual, fantastic job!
Thank you!!
I’ve never been a fan of sunken living rooms, but I LOVE this room! I’m just like you when it comes to requiring visual balance, so glad you added the column and moved the stairs. Gorgeous!
Yes! Thank you!
I love this space and the way you explain design. I really loved the old fireplace, but the marble is a great look as well.
Glad you like it!
My house is very similar. We raised a big family here, but honestly it resembles the "before" pictures. Not stylish, but warm and practical. Interesting to see the potential with your stunning makeover.
What a great transformation! I am so happy you painted everything white 😃
Me too!!
Your talent is just amazing. The entire look is so inviting. For those less stead on their feet, railings on the stairs would certainly be welcomed!
Thank you Doane!
Stunning Sarah love every single piece it’s beautiful thank you for sharing it with us. 💐💐
Thanks for watching!
You have created a lovely vision of calm. Waiting to see more
I know Sarah and her designs from HGTV before on other shows and she is a fantastic designer I love her work. She never disappoints you :)❤😚
Thank you for your continued support Pethronia!
I love your work, and I love watching how your design process. I've loved your work since your Design Inc days and I'm still here for it. Thank you Sara!
Thank you so much!
beautiful
Thanks Linda!
Lovely
Thanks Ilona!
Beautiful! You continue to inspire me!
I'm so glad!
Stunning update! Love the smart structural changes that created the overall space: removing the front entry, centering the stairs, removing the wall, adding the second post. The neutral background does support the views and placements of colour- and it features the people in the room. My own design philosophy is to create spaces and backdrops for people to be at their best. Question: living room window treatments? Are you putting any in? Dining pendants: I prefer half-mirror bulbs so the light doesn't shine in your eyes and bounces off the walls and ceiling- very soft and flattering! (I believe there are half-mirrored bulbs in the kitchen wall sconces?) I wonder if the original owners know you're renovating their home and are experiences sellers' remorse!! I would!!! Look what you've done!!! Amazing!
More realistic Reno for many more people who can’t afford the high prices of so many items. Well done Sarah for seeing the beauty and functionality of more affordable pieces. Too much white!
Amazing result. What to do on that left kitchen upper cabinet? Ask the viewers. I say fill it because it's visual tension. When blocked by the black pendant light my BPM goes back to normal. Sincerely yours, G.
Gorgeous I love it.
Thank you! 😊
Excellent choice and so stylish well done
I love how you stayed true to the woodsy modern style of the original house.
I can't believe I somehow missed this yesterday! But what a lovely surprise to see it today - the living and dining room are gorgeous and I love all the different textures!
PS: I need those pendants over the dining room table - love them!
Thank you! You can find a complete source guide on my website so you can get those pendants! www.sarahrichardsondesign.com/get-inspired/makeovers/2020/06/11/retro-ranch-reno-dining-room
Thank you! 😊
I have the same pendant lamps over our dining room table but in chrome. Love them. Gotta get those railings!
So, where do you think the lights are from?
Just gorgeous 😍! I’m in love with the neutral palette. Can’t wait to see the rest of the home.
Can't wait for you to see it!
Beautiful! Lots of ideas and things to consider that I wouldn’t have thought of! I’ll be taking a closer look at those dining sconces & LOVE the painted dining table legs!
Thanks!
