Some outstanding ideas have been thrown around for how this home could be made to shine again. Consider removing the walls between the kitchen and dining areas to make a wonderful open space and make the territorial views open up to the rest of the home. Expand the wrap-around deck for more entertaining space or perhaps alter the access point out to it. Warm up the basement level for family and rec space by adding carpeting or a wood style floor and put a more glamorous finish on this fireplace and the one in the living room. Adding drywall and recessed lighting in the basement will lighten it up and create a more appealing environment as well. Updating carpets throughout the house will lift it’s style factor. Or, perhaps install hardwoods?
