Holman House

These are exciting times for the cute little house on Holman Ave that we purchased!  Originally we purchased it because we thought we could "move right in!"  And enjoy it as is...well, nothing is ever so simple...after decided the lead paint, lead in the pipes, asbestos siding AND asbestos in the drywall...we decided to take the house down to the bones!  And, add a monster addition...(the kitchen was too small for even a dishwasher and that just won't work for the most popular room in the house).

First the builders removed the asbestos siding...that little bump on the side of the house is (was) the kitchen.

Then they removed all the drywall.  Yes, that is outside light you see...when we removed the siding we discovered there wasn't ANY insulation around the outside of the house!

Next the bulldozer came to take away the tiny kitchen to prepare for the addition.

Bye, bye kitchen...Now to get ready for the addition!  We are adding an addition with enough space for us as the boys grow and it will sit on top of a basement.  Very exciting and lots of space.
