5620 8th St NW- Almost Done

So it's been a while since my last post, and I apologize. We've just been so busy rehabbing houses that I haven't had much time to sit down and update the blog. This particular house is really coming along, and we are trying hard to finish by May 1st (less than two weeks). I think it's definitely possible but it's going to be close. The entire house is painted, the majority of the tile is done and the floors were going in this afternoon. The kitchen cabinets are on order and should be in the house by the end of the week.

After using the same paint colors in several of our previous projects, we decided to try something different and use an entirely different paint scheme.  The result looks awesome. Instead of our typical off-white, we went with a more silver color for the main floor.

The hardwood floors are Brazilian Rosewood and are extremely thick- more than 4 inches wide.  They really show off how high the ceilings are in this house.

Here's a close-up.  The floors came in several different lengths.

The tile in the master bathroom is pretty much finished.  Here's a better shot of the master shower:

The bedrooms each got their own color.  This blue in the front bedroom looks great, especially with the light from the four huge windows.

The master bedroom got a light green color that is almost like a mint shade.  It really makes the bedroom look modern.

Check back in a week to see the finished product.
