Are you in a Christmas coma?!
The cure for too much holiday celebrating is to
relax and view some Before & After projects.
(Okay, I made that up but it is fun.)
The biggest changes to this adorable Cape Cod
are the paint job and a renovated entrance:
The curb appeal just went off the charts.
Honestly, you would need a microscope to
see the potential in this pitiful little house:

This beauty was drowning in shrubs gone wild,
previous inept renovations, and plain neglect:

Such a happy home now!

Enchanting!
This commercial building was successfully
converted into a private home:

The adobe approach to a painfully bland building was sheer genius.
The architectural integrity of this historic home
wasn't compromised during its renovation:
Charming!
This is crazy - the hidden basement was excavated and the original
ground floor became the second floor. I'm impressed!
Link
Wow. Simply, wow.
Look how new garage doors changed
these next two houses:

This detached garage looks so different with new bay doors:

A new front door transformed the 'face' of this house:
The next two projects basically involved new
paint treatments and landscaping:
Before

Replacing the front porch lattice is a small
improvement but it makes a huge impact.
After
Lovely face lift!

When the front stoop is finished this
little Cape Cod will be precious.
This historic beauty had a Bates Motel look about it:
Before

I'm not thrilled by the color choices but
they're definitely an improvement.
What a daunting task this restoration must have been:
Before
I think that I featured this shingled Cape Cod
a few years ago but it deserves a re-post:
Before
After
Painting brick is such a big decision but
these homeowners chose well:
Before

Imagine the vision it took to accomplish this renovation:
Before

The character was restored to this little Craftsman cottage:

The homeowners bravely removed the front porch
and, boy, did it make a difference:

The new front door is spectacular.
This house had so much hidden potential:

An accurate and time-consuming restoration.
I adore this cottage renovation:

So much of it's charm was stunted by out-of-control shrubs.
They left the crooked tree in the front yard of this renovated home:

Utterly beautiful.
When you look at the before and after photos of today's last
project you're going to say, "That's not the same house!"

I know! Incredible!
It's hard to top this project so I'll close with -

The owners practically built a new house over the old one.
Adding another story, changing the roof line, and covering
it all with siding makes this house look so different:
