So much has changed with the house since I last posted. This is the start of the new shower upstairs. The triangular burned spot is where the old shower was originally. There's a small window just above this burned area that is severly smoke damaged - you can see it in the next picture.
This is what the same area looks like today - a new shower pan that is nice and roomy for my husband. That's why he never used the old bathroom - the shower stall was too small. There will be a short wall around the rigth hand side of the shower and the side facing the camera will be a 5' door. The floor itself is going to be tile. We'll extend that to replace all the burned wood floor as well as going to the other side of the bathroom where the claw foot tub will be. We're going to put a heating pad under the tile to keep it warm - yay!
We wanted to have the entire upstairs floor heated from underneath - since the downstairs ceiling was off it seemed like the perfect opportunity. Alas it was not to be; we were at the Seattle Remodel Expo today and the one contractor that did this type of work said that it wasn't possible under a wood floor. Oh well, on to other things for us!
As of today this is what that same area looks like. The frame with the red level on it is the partial wall where the sink and stove will be. The stove will be in the corner which will allow us to have a retractible exhaust vent. The sink and dishwasher will be in the middle of the wall facing out to the rest of the house. Where the PDU is will be the location for the new frig and the frame to the left of the picture is the wall that will support the stacked oven/microwave oven.
Finally - my new work room! The frame in front of you is for the pocket door. The room itself extends a few feet to the right from this picture. I should have plenty of room for all my processing equipment, fiber etc. As well as running water for my felting.
