COUNTRY LIVING IN STYLE {BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOGRAPHS} So far we have converted an old single car garage into a Music Room/GuestHouse. They wanted a space to play music outside of the main house and entertain friends and family. since they are a bit out in the country they wanted to be able to offer a guest house too. Look at the transformation ! We also have been updating the main house. We still have some design goals to reach so stay tuned! CLICK PHOTO FOR LARGER VIEW!
Door Before
This door was the entry to the soon to be guest house.
Door After
For budget reasons we kept the door but carefully removed the plastic framing on the window, repainted the door, added new hardware and window film for privacy.
Hidden Feature Before
After removing dirt and weeds we found a nice platform.
Hidden Feature After
They use it as their firewood storage platform now.
Porch Before
This porch was in need of power washing and a fresh coat of paint.
Porch After
After power washing, two coats of primer, and three coats of paint that has sand mixed in for anti slipping this porch looks much better.

They want to keep this A/C for emergency backup that can run off a generator since their whole house is electric and in Texas so we are going to dress it up.
