  • @ariane2544
    @ariane2544 3 года назад +221

    Make a gym room instead of a guest bedroom if you're not going to have guests over often. They can sleep on a sofa bed or something. Don't waste your potential living space on hypothetical visitors, you could run on your treadmill with sunlight instead of in that dark laundry room.

      Agreed. Especially during a pandemic!
      You could always do a high end sofa bed in one room or some sort of storable wall bed (murphy bed) or day bed. Alternatively, you could get one of those newer collapsible/storable treadmills. Good luck! The light is beautiful in your new home, congratulations!

    My friend owned a townhouse like this that I lived with her in for a years. It’s crazy how similar it is. Just a hint so you don’t make the same mistake she did. Don’t store anything in cardboard boxes in the crawl space. Use a thick plastic bin. Getting out a box winter clothes led to a discovery of rats that chewed thru the boxes and made the clothes their nest.

      YES! This is kinda related to my comment. I feel like there’s so much dead space there because of the utility stuff and the L-shape layout. She should be patient with the basement because it’s a totally separate area of the house and can be closed off to keep renovating even when the rest is done. I know she didn’t love living in the LA house through the renovation but that’s cuz it was all up in her space. If she could do something cool down there, even if it took more time or more saving up first to do it right, I think she should! That way she can make an aesthetic treadmill area she will love instead of it being next to her laundry machines. I definitely work out more often in a cuter place.

    what about your exercise equipment upstairs either in one of the empty rooms or the big open room you're making your office? I think you'd be more willing to use it up there then in a corner of a laundry room! just a thought :)

    Am I missing any other Canadian RUclipsrs buying homes? We have Tara Michelle, DIY Danie, rachspeed, Letitia Kiu. Who else? Exciting times for me. I have so much to watch from all these ladies.. BIG Congrats to Tara. Have been watching you since FIDM days and you've done such remarkable things for your life (which in return you provide us with your content. We can all live vicariously live through your life). You've taken big steps, small steps but you've kept at it. And it shows. Can't wait to see this next chapter.

    Pleaseeeeee don't get rid of the little bench in your bedroom. It's like the perfect reading/ chilling area to have. I'm so jealous of it.
    Try and picture it with a bookshelf and record player next to it!

    OMG!! It looks amazing and has so much potential. I can see why you fell in love. It’s layout is perfect for you. The huge windows and all that light!!! I can’t wait to follow along and see it’s progress! That crawl space is creepy but maybe if you did some Sheetrock and paint it could be less creepy and a good place for storage. I can totally see a nice big freezer down in that room for all your Buffalo Trader Joe’s trips. :)

      I'm from San Francisco and think the homes you're referring to are Victorian homes. They're gorgeous and many have a ton of unique period details! I'd say they tend to have less stairs than Tara's new space though lol

    Congrats! I love the house! I would suggest making the guest bedroom yours. If you make it your bedroom, guests won't have to walk through your office space especially when you're working to get downstairs. Plus, as a whole it will act as your own entire space. Excited to see the renos!
