New Renovation Project!

Our little family is on to our next adventure, we sold our house in San Luis Obispo and bought a duplex in Atascadero! Each side of the duplex is a two bedroom one bath unit, however, we are working with a contractor friend to expand one of the sides to a 4 bedroom 2.5 bath. Once finished we will live in the expanded side, and rent out the other. It's all very exciting, but as we know from previous experience, this is going to be a very long process to reach the finish line.  

The rental side is currently being worked on and should be finished by 4th of July. Yippee! Here are some pictures of the progress.


This is the front of the house, it's on a half acre. We will live on the left side, the rental is on the right. The front door for the rental will be moved to the side of the house so it less like a duplex.


This is the main room. The foundation for the entire house was completely shot, so the insides were gutted, fixed, and now everything is being put back together.


Soon this will be a super cute little kitchen for our renters 😊 You have to focus on the big picture with these things when your project starts off like this...


The hallway to the left of the kitchen is where the new front entrance will be. The closet there will house the laundry. In the back of the house are two small bedrooms flanking a bathroom. The whole unit is small, but it would work well for a young couple.

Our contractor hasn't even touched our side yet, the plans are being reviewed by the city. Hopefully they will be approved soon!
