The first pic is the old house just before we moved and the second pic is the new house. Just wanted to show what we went from and what we are working with now. While the new house looks OK from a distance, it needs a lot of work when you really start looking at the details.

We're Getting Ready...
For those of you who followed our last renovation on Pin Oak Road, you know we have been through this before. When we bought and renovated our last home we thought it was our forever home, but we were wrong. A few years later Conor bought a boat - or is that money pit - and we realized using the public access ramps is not convenient. Fast forward a year and we decided we need to live in a neighborhood with water access. We found a house in the next neighborhood over; it's only 10 houses down from the last house. The address says the house is on a different road, but the house and driveway actually face Pin Oak Road. Our new neighborhood has a community beach and marina! While the boat has been relocated to its new home at the marina, our transition will not be as easy.
We bought a fixer-upper again, although, this one is not quite as bad as the last. If you didn't see our last renovation, you should catch up. You can see the pics and read about it on 720PinOak@blogspot.com. Make sure to scroll to the bottom and click to view older posts to see the very beginning.
As for this renovation, we have done minimal work to the inside to make the basement livable for the family during the renovation and addition process. We are waiting for the county to approve our variance and are keeping our fingers crossed that it goes through. Then, the bulk of the work can begin.
