We Bought Our First House!

Home

G and I have been holding onto a little secret for the past month– we bought a house! We wanted to keep it quiet until everything closed, but now that we are all moved in, we are finally accepting that this is real life and it is okay to share!

We wanted some space from our neighbors so we got about 3/4 of an acre. It has some woods in the back and there is even a creek that I will have to show y’all another time 😉

Here’s a walk-through of pretty much the whole house before we moved our stuff in. I wanted to show y’all the before pictures before it gets styled with all of our things 🙂 You can go to my stories on Instagram under “house” to see a full walk-through– just show me some grace when you watch it because it is MESSY!

Entryway:

(P.S. I plan on painting the door and eventually getting a new one all together!)

Dining room:

Butler’s pantry:

Kitchen:

(The area off to the right is going to likely become a breakfast nook!)

Living room:

Mudroom/drop-off zone:

There is also a small powder room downstairs which is through the door to the right!

Office (through the door to the left of the drop-off zone):

Upstairs:

Master bedroom:

There’s also a big walk-in closet that I obviously need haha

Master bathroom:

Laundry room down the hall:

Guest bedroom (x3) that all look the same:

Guest bathroom:

There’s also a cool loft area that I completely forgot to photograph which will be like a game room!

Front garden:

Here’s what I have already planted!

Salvia in the front, baby gem boxwoods in the middle, and white hydrangeas in the back.

Needless to say, we love being homeowners! 🙂

    […] We bought our new build house a few years ago, and we are finally getting around to doing more than decorating and adding furniture, but instead wanting to give it some DIY updates that make it a little bit less “builder grade” and more our style. But of course, we are doing everything on a budget and trying to see how much of an impact we can make for as little money as possible. I have been documenting our primary bathroom refresh on my Instagram stories and are attempting to keep it budget friendly. […]
