The owner listened to those suggestions, took the house off the market and proceeded to incorporate those ideas in its renovation. The house is now ready for its reveal. Among the many changes is a new, high efficiency, ductless heating and air conditioning system. This space saver allowed the owner to remove ceiling ducts and bulkheads in the kitchen, living room as well as the bedroom. It also created a second, much needed closet, as that space was previously occupied by a heat pump. A wall separating the kitchen from the living room has been removed and the flooring in both rooms, previously tile, has been enhanced with the addition of floating( zero-VOC) cork. New paint has been applied throughout. If you saw it before please come and see the changes your suggestions have made.
