Use the closet in the living room for games & hosting storage! We use ours to store extra seating & paper goods because we host a Bible study once a week!
I love the countertops!!! I think you should turn that door to the closet in the family room into a decorative shelf hidden door. It Could be a fun hideaway future playroom or prayer room like Tori and Chad did 💕🙏
keep the storage under the stairs and use it like an attic! maybe store seasonal decor there where you only have to put the couch out very occasionally!
Might as well keep the storage closet door for under the stairs even if it’s basically blocked off You can always scoot the couch if needed to get in and still use the storage for other stuff. Or for resale purposes I feel like it may be better to keep it
I was going to comment and I saw people already did!! Making the closet/under stair area for teddy would be adorable! And possible play area for nieces and nephews!
The home looks great! You could keep the downstairs cozy and relaxing with no tv for now. The space upstairs with a big TV. The space by the stairs you could put a big table. The dining nook could be turned into a cozy reading and coffee space. I hope my next home has that much space and a fireplace. I hope you have a great holiday season!
Beautiful new home! Please don't close off the closet in the family room. You can leave it empty, but the more storage the better for possible resale or you may need more storage in the future.
i think you should leave the livingroom storage as it is.... when you have kids you will appreciate having a place to store the high chair, playpen etc
Very nice house, love all the space! I'm really happy for y'all for this journey and cannot wait to see what God does next. Jaclyn, this video was really good❤️
I love this! I think it might be cute to take the door off in the living room and turn that space into a little under the stairs built in reading nook/seat! I've also seen bookshelves built into the stairs which would be cool for book storage, board games, and things like that!
Under the stairs you could tear out the wall and put in wall drawers and cabinets for more storage even though you’re not lacking any! But you could store blankets or holiday decor or crafts of some kind you don’t want laying out! Or even board or card games!! You could also make it a dog room for teddy possibly?
Change the door under the stairs to a a sliding barn door to store things like suitcases or board games. If it is sliding then it will still be accessible with the couch in front :)
I would use the under the stairs cupboard for something that you don't need all the time like Christmas decorations for example. That way you don't have to access it much which means it won't be too inconvenient to only need to move the couch once a year. I know you have lots of storage space, but more is better than less, especially when you have kids :)
For the closet by the couch I’ve seen people take the door off and put like bottom cabinets and shelving about to make it a cute little shelf/storage space!
You could use thst closet in the living room as a cleaning closet and shoe closet. I woukd not get rid of any closet especially when you start yr family❤
It was a prepackaged home. They didn't have a say in it. They didn't build the house just bought it while it was being built. So they didn't get to change anything. It was being built in what ever way the builders were ordered to build it.
Not me watching it twice thinking I missed where she said they had an extra room for future kids.... but it wasn't mentioned maybe the movie room I suppose.
So they bought a house that was being built :) so that’s why they couldn’t make any initial changes until it was completed. It sucks but it is a common thing when buying a new build
Have you seen where people turn the under stair storage areas for cute and cozy little dog rooms? I’m sure Teddy would love it. 😉
I was coming here to say this!! This would be so cute and cozy 🫶🏻
Gorg!
No way, I wouldn’t just wall of that extra storage! Definitely use it for something! Doggie corner, prayer closet, etc! 🤍

You could also put kitchen appliances in there that you don’t use as often or kitchen backstock stuff
I would live with it for a little while before making big, structural changes. Also the wall upstairs is safer than a railing for any future children.
I agree to keep the storage under the stairs! You never know what you might need to store once kids come etc

So excited for you guys! Praying God uses this home for His glory. I can already see you hosting many fellowship gatherings in this cozy new home 🫶🏼
Keep the room under the stairs, u could use it as a little fun pkayroom for future kids
I was thinking the same
Plus a place to put the toys that inevitably are in the family living space as they want to be near you.
For the under the stairs door, do a sliding/barn door instead. Make it a little reading area or storage for seasonal items

I have a little closet like that too in our house! Either a small prayer room would be cute or storage for some other stuff like decorations
I low key miss the custom character of the old house… but I’m excited to see the major updates!

Can’t wait to see all the remodeling you do to the new house. So excited for the both of you!

Beautiful Jaclyn! Praying that this fresh season will be drenched in the favour and blessing of God ❤
I’m glad you posed this! It’s so wholesome!!
Been waiting for this!!!
Okay but I love the floors!!
Absolutely gorgeous home Jaclyn! WOW!

So sweet... i am happy for you, jaclyn❤❤❤❤

Ahh I can’t wait to see how you guys decorate it!
Your new home is beautiful guys ❤❤

That closet under the stairs would be your safe space in case of tornados!
congratulations Jacklyn the house looks beautiful
Glad you posted!!
Love the house….Closet in living room…under the stairs. I did book shelves under my stairs.
Congratulations! It's a beautiful 🏡 home!
Be careful when you do the railings upstairs. You just need to make them close enough together so a kids head cant get stuck in them.
You could make one closet a Christmas closet! Like your tree and everything goes there!
You could use thst closet in the living room as a cleaning closet and shoe closet. I woukd not get rid of any closet especially when you start yr family❤
Eeek!!! I love it all!!!
Congratulations!!! Such a beautiful home!!!
Loved this video! So excited for you guys!!!
You should put crown molding and waincotting
Turn the nook under the stairs into a built-in bookshelf?
Hi ❤, i loved the house but wanted to ask are you gonna do e baby room? Or you are going to do it later on? ❤
Either the living room storage turn into a dog nook for teddy orrr a game storage!
Her face when she showed the room was so funny hahaha
How come you didn't have these changes made when the house was being built?
It was a prepackaged home. They didn't have a say in it. They didn't build the house just bought it while it was being built. So they didn't get to change anything. It was being built in what ever way the builders were ordered to build it.
What about a sliding door like a barn door so it’s not in the way of the couch ?
What if you could somehow make the closet door in the living room a hidden door??
Why do you choose to have your master downstairs? Genuine question. I’d prefer upstairs because of more privacy
Content room… podcast room?👀👀
I was think the saaaaame thing!
The living room totally lacks lighting and the kitchen is so tiny!! Hopefully you guys can make it work
Not me watching it twice thinking I missed where she said they had an extra room for future kids.... but it wasn't mentioned maybe the movie room I suppose.
As a British person I find it strange that Americans have a toilet room, in the UK we have the toilet in the bathroom not in a separate room.
🏡🏡💕🥂
I’m so confused I thought they were building this house from scratch but seems likes it’s renovations to an existing house. Can someone confirm :)
So they bought a house that was being built :) so that’s why they couldn’t make any initial changes until it was completed. It sucks but it is a common thing when buying a new build
@@Anna08371ohhh ok thank you so much for replying :)
Ya close that area off in the living room
Oh my gosh the fact that you don’t show behind the doors is killing me.
