    I love the concrete wall you’ve built.
    Imagine how it will look like, when it’s covered with plants.
    The rest of the house is lovely!!
    Thanks for sharing @Clint_D

                  Absolutely! We need to make it happen once people can travel freely again.

                    Working from home has made my partner and I consider upsizing and viewings have started. Not sure if it is a good time to move but it would be fun to have outside space.

                        Nicely done @Appfaff Sorting out a proper wash room that is functional was one of the jobs I have done that really raised the SoL in our current home.

                            Thanks gents - I'm glad it turned out well, but man, small spaces are always the worst to work in!

                              Looks great, and a lot more functional. I miss having a laundry area sink. Those are so useful.

                                Yeah, a laundry sink is a must for me, and the swap from a clunky utility sink to the deep bar sink really gave us a ton more counter space which will inevitably just be used sweaty hats and dirty kids clothes haha [emoji23]

                                  We are selling this, my first purchased home. We did a lot to it and have ridden the real estate wave hopefully well; a difficult market that would have been even moreso as a first time buyer. We love, but outgrew, this home. Bittersweet to move on from it and its location.

                                  We found a home that gives us nearly twice the space in an area we prefer. Better set up for the family across the board. I’m grateful that we were able to find a place that will support our larger family without making sacrifices we’re uncomfortable with. Excited to have two garages (we’re not even using the current minute garage for car, and it hails here a lot), fenced front and back, open floor plan, breakfast nook, and a finished basement that will include a bar, A/V, fitness, and bedrooms.

                                  Think it, be it.

                                        Thanks @Appfaff and @zhivago ! We are stoked. None of it would have happened without my wife’s vision and commitment. Really hope this weekend’s showings go well and result in some nice offers. Based on that I may accelerate the plan to do a kitchen remodel in the new spot.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          Congrats @mclaincausey!  I know the CO market is pretty insane right now, I imagine you won't have any issues.  My brother sold his house in Edgewater last month.  He received multiple offers within 24 hours of listing and had it closed within a few weeks.
