@@modelointeriors104 my mouth literally dropped when the camera panned to the after. Those windows are just incredible. Really enjoyed the tour of your home and the design and style is impeccable.
Stunning renovation!! The house looks like it should have always been this way, inside and out. The choices you’ve made are really beautiful and meaningful-truly making it work for your family.
Apart from the TV on top of the fireplace I love every single thing about the house. It's as beautiful on the inside a it is on the outside. Functional and beautiful, timeless.
it's the exposed brick and horizontal beam that are not working, wall should be painted or use same calacatta marble as on the kitchen island to marry the kitchen plus tv area
Thank you. The windows are made from accoya wood, which is made from a fast growing pine tree that goes through a acetylation process using acetic acid. This creates stable and durable wood. They are very affordable, especially when compared to the large window companies. The best part in my mind is they are completely customizable
@@modelointeriors104 Wow! Very interesting! What is the name of the custom window company or individual and do they ship? If you don't mind sharing that info. There are Amish communities in my area so if your source is not an option, perhaps they might share expertise with our local Amish craftsmen. Hope you see this and thanks again!
What a gorgeous house! You can really tell they took their time and put a lot of thought in it! And I really enjoyed the designer/owner's detailed commentary! My favourite thing might be the exterior, actually! That stone, these windows, that garden! 😍
Yes, the windows are stunning! I am often bothered by stained wood interior door and window casings as well as base moldings on homes from decades past, thinking they would look so much more cohesive if they were painted out. But these handcrafted windows truly are the icing on the cake and take it to the next level. Just as the eyes are the windows to the soul, these windows are the eyes to the soul of the house and it's people. It; to me anyway, elevates it to a Frank Lloyd Wright aesthetic which actually the whole house is reminiscent of. It must be an absolute joy to live there! Thanks for sharing the beauty!
Congratulations, Karen Miller on a well thought out design of an entire home! Taking the wall down between the kitchen and living room was brilliant and created a beautiful, serene living space. Everyone will want to cook there and entertain! I appreciated that she told us it took 10 years to complete the remodel. So many of these shows make it seem like these changes happen overnight and that rarely happens! I agree that living in a space helps you make the right decisions. I love the farmhouse design -so friendly for gatherings. The home also has a slight arts and crafts aesthetic as well. The home has personnel touches. She does not mention it, but that house will be very easy to keep clean- a huge bonus! I really like the 1st floor entry way 'mudroom' area. A great place for coats/shoes to go and does not affect the clean look of the large kitchen/family room. The lower floor TV room is great- if someone wants to watch TV but others want to talk upstairs, that separation exists to allow this division. Finally, I liked that she spoke about plans to move the fireplace but found out it could not be done. I love when there is a constraint in a home design - it actually forces us to be more creative working with the existing structure. She did a great job using what was available. I am sure this will be a home with years of enjoyment for this owner and her family.
It is practically a new-built. They stripped id down to the studs and got everything new - stone exteriors, new steel beams, plumbing, electricals, floors, doors, windows, appliances - may be only the roof is original.
Might have taken a while… but nothing lovely happens overnight. I don’t usually care for stucco facades, but this is gorgeous. Those windows are a treat
This looks so beautiful. We’re in the process of remodeling our entire home and the greatest part about this is being able to take down walls and just put in huge sliding doors and windows. I’m so excited about all of the new natural light we have. Love all of the details! 🙌
I usually 'cant stand' these make overs! This one is different! So well done. Everything is something I would choose, or like. Karen has taste, and allot of skill. Really beautiful.... CCC Austin, TX
Sooo agree about waiting to see how you use the space. I’ve almost been kind jealous of people that can reno an entire home before they move in. But having been in ours 3 years now we’ve made changes slowly that function so well and we have the best plan for a bigger reno soon that’s going to suit us and this house perfectly. I would have never thought of the changes I have planned without living here. I think it helps you to better work with what the house is meant to be as well and not try to make it something it isn’t plus lose it’s uniqueness.
R/TVtooHigh I’ve never understood the appeal of mounting televisions over fireplaces. Suboptimal viewing angles and because you’re not looking at the tv straight on, it can’t fill your visual field which leads to a less immersive experience. I would have kitted out the basement as a proper tv / multi media space and let the fireplace upstairs be a centrepiece on its own.
Yes! This has been a huge bugbear of mine. First of all, the TV and fireplace are competing against each other as focal point of the room. And then TVs have to be mounted high up because of the fireplaces and the viewing is not optimal - the strain on the neck would become nightmarish if you plan to binge-watch your favorite shows. They should always be at eye level while sitting down.
Could you please include in every video the renovation cost so we can have an idea. It’s very helpful especially for first home buyer like myself. Thanks.
Hello there, I can try to answer that for you, for a renovation of this size: I peeled off the whole exterior, added stone all the way around, new windows, doors, replaced the flooring in the entire home, took down load bearing walls, added flush steel beams where needed, new kitchen, appliances, 3 renovated bathrooms, new laundry, all new plumbing and electrical, honestly, pretty much took the entire house back to the studs, for something like this you would be anywhere from $300 000 - $500 000 depending on the finishes that you chose and how much new construction there would be, what you find when you get the walls open etc. I know that seems like a big range but there are so many variables. I hope this helps a little
Thank you! I wasn't a 10 year renovation, it took me 10 years to begin the renovation. When we decided to renovate it was just going to be a kitchen renovation. We then figured we may as well do the bathrooms they were really tired, I decided to peel off the exterior, the landscaping, add exterior living/kitchen, etc.. the plan grew the longer we lived in the home. We waited until we saved what we needed and then executed the plan over an 6 month period from beginning to end.
Looks nice! Wonderful the husband cooks 🙌 I couldn't have a bench seat. Just think when someone has to get up, or comes back, every one has to move. Rude!🙃!
It probably is screwed down and I don't think the fireplace heat would get there. It is more of an aesthetic problem for me - too high up and competing focal points.
Lovely transformation really like the exterior stone and stucco. The tv games room looking onto the pool is nice but how do you watch tv and play games when the tv is facing the window

Thank you. The vent is there, I used a downdraft. It's installed right in front of the cooktop. It pops up from the countertop when the cooktop is in use. It is difficult to see if you aren't looking for it, which is why i chose to do it that way. The view of the back yard is so pretty I did not want an obstructed view when sitting at the island.
The exterior looks stunning! From being a boring average suburban look, it is now an elegant timeless stylish home. Congratulations!
Thank you, the old white turned grey brick bothered me from the day we bought it :)

Honestly 10 years well spent!! Absolutely gorgeous home!
I didn't know you could get wood windows made that wasn't a man-made material made to look like wood or cladded in wood. They are spectacular!

You can get anything custom built of wood it's just $$$$$.

All I can say is WOW, WOW, WOW! Absolutely insane! Such a comfortable , inviting and cozy home. Congrats!
A home takes time to develop. We are busy renovating, in stages and diy to safe cost, but still have quality. It is going to take time
Good luck with your project! it takes love and patience.

I love what she’s done with her home! It seems like she’s very practical and yet stylish.
I love this home! So beautiful!
you would have never thought the before and after was the same house..i would have thought this was a new build but still it felt timeless and classic

Stunning and everything is beautiful....
Stunning balanced combination of aesthetic and practice considerations-really lovely.
I love this style. All the warm wood details and stone and tile give it so much personality. Great kitchen design.
Beautiful both inside and out. Great interior design.
Every aspect is gorgeous! Love the choices & of course the workmanship on the windows 👏🏻😃
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE NATURAL SUNLIGHT IN A HOME APARTMENT WHATEVER YOU HAVE ESPECIALLY IN THE SPRING SUMMER MONTHS THIS IS BEAUTIFUL ❤️
The husband sounds amazing ! doesnt he !?

An absolute stunner ... WOW! really well executed and the color palette and choice of fabrics and furniture are well-appointed. Well-done Karen Miller
Beautifully renovated. I love the windows and the little corbels on them
Fabulous! The windows are incredible. The detailing is stunning. Trading the stone exterior and the wooden cased windows is genius.

Beautiful!!!! Exactly there is no point buying a new house if you can renovate it properly. Off-course it’s all about what is worth your money.
ABSOLUTELY Beautiful
love the look of wood windows outside!
Beautiful! Stylish and perfectly functional! Must be a dream living there!
amazing improvement! taking out that wall was a great move!
I'm amazed and what you've done with this home. I get thrilled when i see older homes revamped...

Loved the entire renovation. A lucky husband. The tile floor is my favorite. Where did you got it?
Beautiful 😍
I would love to know where the pink rug in the girls' room came from - beautiful update!
Love!
Great job!!
A oversized island is golden.
Then there's me who should never have a flat surface that can not serve as a bed for a bonfire also.
perfect home!
Absolutely gorgeous! Could you tell us what paint color you used for the lower cabs, island and upper cab! Thank you!
First viewer! Awesome video
Wow congratulations 😍
@@thawtianajawnson30 lol you too
Gorgeous inside out! But i always keep wondering how safe is TV over the fireplace 😯
It probably is screwed down and I don't think the fireplace heat would get there. It is more of an aesthetic problem for me - too high up and competing focal points.
If you reno the backyard pool area, would love to see what you do in that space.
Love it ❤️
Lovely transformation really like the exterior stone and stucco. The tv games room looking onto the pool is nice but how do you watch tv and play games when the tv is facing the window
Beautiful changes, but big mistake taking angel stone off fireplace. That was the character, plus can’t replace it, as it’s not obtainable now.
Lovely and Inspiring!! Can you post the contact for the windows please.
Beautifully done! But 10 years of (piecemeal) renovation? I couldn’t.

Beautiful house. Is there going to be a vent installed over the cooktop on the island? ❤️
Thank you. The vent is there, I used a downdraft. It's installed right in front of the cooktop. It pops up from the countertop when the cooktop is in use. It is difficult to see if you aren't looking for it, which is why i chose to do it that way. The view of the back yard is so pretty I did not want an obstructed view when sitting at the island.
Nice but the ceiling looks very low.
