Wondering if the house was completed in the before pictures?? It just didnt seem done, where were the cabinets in the kitchen?? Absolutely in love with the kitchen in the after photos.

Wow! I seriously love the kitchen also. It’s a kitchen I can only dream about. A warm and cozy gathering spot at parties. ?

My parents moved to Mesa in 1983, it is refreshing to see renovation since that area seems to have suffered so from the economic decline. The interior is very well done. Thank you so much or sharing, I love it all!

I must align myself with those who prefer the before front elevation. Changing out the railing and adding wide French doors to replace the small door and window would have added to the charm. The dormers and portico added dimension and much needed visual interest. Sadly, I would probably drive by without noticing the house now.

Then I’d say Magda that’s it’s a good thing you don’t live there.

I guess I am going to be the damp rag here. They lost a lot of space and light. Two dormer windows are gone, which makes the rooms in that space darker and relying on light from one vantage point instead of two (I am assuming windows in the gables).

I think I know exactly where this house is…in the Evergreen Historic District. It as the first district in the Phoenix area that I encountered and I loved the tree lined streets. I almost bought a home on Grand Ave in that neighborhood and I always wish I had. Great little tudors in that neighborhood as well as Craftsmen.

I know EXACTLY where that home is and used to drive by it daily when I lived in Arizona. The home is beautiful and I wish they could transform the entire neighborhood in a similar manner.
