New renovations for Summer 2012!

New renovations for Summer 2012!
I've been spending a TON of time on the internet designing and picking out materials for the major renovations we are doing to Cove View Cottage.  See that turquoise monstrosity that was once our bathtub/shower?  Yah.... outta there.  In will come a deep soaking jacuzzi jetted tub, tile floors, no more wallpaper, new lighting, brand new LG high capacity washer and dryer, granite countertop and the list goes on.   The master bedroom will get hardwood floors and fresh updates to the room's design.  Our second bathroom upstairs will also get a deep soaking tub and tile floors, new countertop and sink and fresh design.  The downstairs bedroom will also get new paint and prettier ceiling along with a few other fresh updates to the rest of the interior.  I feel like we are getting so close to magazine worthy.  The house was pretty nice before, but now it will blow your socks off!  

If you haven't booked a week in 2012 yet, don't wait long.  There is only one week of July left and spring interest has picked up.  Prices will probably go up in 2013 to reflect the upgrades on the house, so take advantage of lower 2012 prices while you can!  Click here for more information.

I will post photos to the blog as we progress.
