Welcome to our new home. It is a split level home built in the 70’s. It has an open floor plan with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It is small, but we are empty nesters, so it is perfect for us.
Tuesday, the day we moved in, it started out cloudy and cold and at the end of the day it was warm and sunny. I took all these pictures in the morning before the moving truck arrived and there wasn’t much light, so everything looks a little dark.
Let’s start the tour at the front door (above). You enter into a small hallway and you can either go up a few steps to the main living area, or go down a few steps to the family room, a bathroom, laundry room and garage.
Hello! There is a mirror on the wall at the end of the hallway, and I didn’t realize I was in the photo until I went to download the pictures.
The kitchen has birch cabinets.
The dining area opens out onto a deck.
Our dog photo bombed several of the pictures
Living Room
The master bedroom also opens out onto the same deck.

Guest Bedroom
This room will be the office/craft room.
Back down stairs, this is the family room.
That’s it. It is small, but I really like it. I am still up to my eyeballs in unopened boxes, but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am looking forward to starting some décor projects.
Next week I have a beautiful home tour to show you. A sweet friend I met here in Cleveland invited me into her beautiful home and I will be sharing it next week.
Thank you for all your well wishes and sweet comments. Your support has kept me going.
Enjoy your weekend.
For a 70’s home it looks very well kept…good for you that you are loven it! Can’t wait to see all that you will do!
It looks like a well kept and clean home and I’m sure you will make it your ‘own’ with your great decor style. Have fun unpacking and decorating!

Great house, It will be amazing when you’re done. You always have great ideas and execute them beautifully.
So excited for you Mary ! How fun to start decorating a new home ! Can’t wait to see all the beautiful rooms you create.

Agreeing with the others that for a 70’s home, it has some great features and looks well taken care of. AND, like the others, I look forward to seeing you put your style in each room – happy settling in!
Thanks for showing your home bare bones before you start to unpack…it’s so full of neat potential in decorating. A blank slate. You are going to have so much fun…okay, it’s hard work but it’s going to be fantastic~
XO,

Mary – Good luck in your new home…. a new adventure in decorating. Can’t wait to see the results. My in-laws lived in the same house.

Congratulations on moving into your new home, Mary! I can’t wait to see how you transform it with your unique style!
I think it’s cute that you photo bombed your own picture. Can’t wait to see the after pictures. 🙂
I know you’ll work wonders on this home!
