Transformational Remodel of 70's ranch

8 years ago

My In-Laws built this home in 1972 on 3 acres of beautifully wooded land. After my FIL's passing in 1995, the home saw little maintenance. My husband and I purchased the home and moved in to care for MIL and the property, with the plan to do an extensive remodel on the home so that it would continue to bless others over the next 40 years. We also wanted to take advantage of the gorgeous views of the woods from the interior of the home.

Here are the Before and After shots of the exterior of the home:

It has been a true transformation of the exterior. We struggled with the decision to paint the brick, knowing we were creating a maintenance item where we had a maintenance-free brick before, however, after seeing the stone wrap on the house, we knew we had to paint the brick and are happy with the decision.


Thanks for looking!

    @Designer Drains - thank you - my husband designed and built the retaining walls, and landscaped it himself. We’ve since painted the retaining walls to match the railing.

    Looks gorgeous. I agree with everyone here. The updated space looks very modern, practical, and inviting!

    Love the new colors and that backyard is just stunning. Painting the brick is such a good decision.
