The front entry wall shown as we found it in 1981. I suppose the little door to the stairwall was intended to keep pets from going down to the unfinished basement as there were no children in this house prior to our owning it. Funny, now we LIKE the light fixtures chosen by the first owner, and strongly dislike the traditional brass jobs we chose to replace them during our first renovation. Tastes change...
During the first renovation in 1981, we sheetrocked the wall and put blue grasscloth on selected walls that weren't left paneled. The piano gained new life when donated to some of the g-kids.
For now, a small chess table and chairs serve as a temporary dining area when weather doesn't permit being out on the deck. The hemp rug helps keep sawdust from being tracked into the white carpeted master bedroom. Lots of wall space for paintings now in storage.
