I purchased this abandoned home through MLS for $130,000. The home had been abandoned for years and I took possession with dead animals inside. It had been raining inside the home for years through open holes in the roof. I knew right away that with the condition of this house, my budget and the floor plan that it would give me the canvas I needed to use my creativity to its fullest.
This abandoned project was a complete gut down to the studs with all new mechanicals. I basically created a new home minus the foundation and framing. I moved some walls around, opened the floor plan, raised the ceilings, arched all the openings and added a master bath. This complete remodel included all new electrical, central air/heat, ducting, insulation, drywall, all flooring including real cherry hardwoods and custom tile.
We also added special wiring for a flat screen TV and surround sound. The first thing I did after demo was replace the entire roof including the sheeting as well as have the foundation leveled as it had sunk 6 inches in one corner.
