Hallways

There are two separate hall areas in this home, both updated to add a brighter feel and one hall area a closet added for much needed organization.

HALL #1 (opening to Bedrooms #1, 2, &3 and bathroom #2)  This hall has two closets; one as a storage/linen closet, and the other is a mechanical closet housing the air conditioner unit. The air conditioner unit closet has the old original door that has been repainted white and the only original antique door knob in the whole house.

BEFORE

All dark wood panel.  This "before photo" does not show the two white doors original state of solid brown matching the panel.  Our original thought was to simply paint the brown panel white...
...we decided after we got started painting the primer coat that it wasn't going to look very good as painted panel, so we bought bead board that replaced the brown panel.  This hall was originally carpeted with a very worn contractor grade beige.
  AFTER
Bright white and fresh.  The hall ceiling light is the original.


The only original door knob from this house- on the A/C closet door
 HALL #2 (opening to Bedroom #4, bathroom #1, and walk in closet)

BEFORE

This brown door was an awkward entrance to Bedroom #3.  We chose to eliminate this door and add a closet to this hall area space.
 AFTER

New closet.
