two bistro chairs.
174
00:06:32,556 --> 00:06:34,224
Yeah, but there isn't room.
175
00:06:34,226 --> 00:06:36,624

Okay, so if this
isn't gonna work,
179
00:06:42,968 --> 00:06:45,470
what we could do --
'cause the kitchen
we'll keep back here.
180
00:06:45,472 --> 00:06:47,770
Okay.
Where our dining room is
181
00:06:47,772 --> 00:06:49,203
we can have french doors
that open in
182
00:06:49,205 --> 00:06:51,107
and do, like,
a little juliet balcony.
183
00:06:51,109 --> 00:06:55,678
Not that you have, like,
a great view,
184
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,049
but it will at least
give you, like...
185
00:06:58,051 --> 00:07:00,382
Karen: But that takes up
your whole sidewalk.
186
00:07:00,384 --> 00:07:02,486
Even a juliet balcony's
gonna get in the way.
187
00:07:02,488 --> 00:07:04,420
-We don't have a sidewalk.
Yeah, you do.
188
00:07:04,422 --> 00:07:05,890
-Nuh-uh.
-Yeah, right there.
189
00:07:05,892 --> 00:07:07,257
There's a sidewalk.
I can see it.
190
00:07:07,259 --> 00:07:09,357
But there's an alley.
You don't need a sidewalk.
191
00:07:09,359 --> 00:07:10,528
All right.
192
00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:12,895
So my thought is with
the whole juliet balcony,
193
00:07:12,897 --> 00:07:15,499
we could do that off the side
in the dining room
194
00:07:15,501 --> 00:07:18,469
to get more, like, the vibe
of indoor/outdoor space,
195
00:07:18,471 --> 00:07:21,269
even though you don't really
have the outdoor space.
196
00:07:21,271 --> 00:07:23,640
And my concern was, really,
197
00:07:23,642 --> 00:07:26,544
do we want the vibe of an alley
in the dining room?
198
00:07:26,546 --> 00:07:29,178
I mean,
it's very urban.

3 bedrooms and 1 bath.

201

So up here is identical layout
to the other side.

203
00:07:42,325 --> 00:07:43,761
Reconfigure the bathroom
a little bit,
204
00:07:43,763 --> 00:07:46,094
but this would stay
the same.
Keep this the same.
205
00:07:46,096 --> 00:07:47,565
And then these two spaces
206
00:07:47,567 --> 00:07:51,402
we'll turn into
the master and the en suite.
En suite.
207
00:07:52,737 --> 00:07:55,040
Mina: Mom, grab one of the poles
out of that closet
208
00:07:55,042 --> 00:07:57,906
and pop a piece
of ceiling up.
209
00:07:57,908 --> 00:08:00,510
Oh, wow.
They dropped it like 6 inches
210
00:08:00,512 --> 00:08:03,214
unless it's a drop
on top of a drop.

go somewhere.

213
00:08:08,354 --> 00:08:11,889
That's such a small distance
to drop the ceiling.
214
00:08:11,891 --> 00:08:13,689
I really thought we were gonna
get more height than that.
215
00:08:13,691 --> 00:08:15,327
You know,
on the front of the house,
216
00:08:15,329 --> 00:08:17,827
there's the gable
that faces the street.
Mm-hmm.
217
00:08:17,829 --> 00:08:20,264
Can we take advantage
of that vault from the gable
218
00:08:20,266 --> 00:08:21,731
and maybe go up
a little more?

Outside, we need
new siding and paint
224

that will be different
than the other side
225
00:08:34,012 --> 00:08:35,847
but still complementary.
226
00:08:35,849 --> 00:08:37,614
Upstairs, we want to combine
two of the bedrooms

230

Outside, we're installing the

Yeah. They don't teach you that

as the front-porch railing

throughout the property.
728
00:27:48,498 --> 00:27:50,700
We also decided to add
an artistic panel insert
729
00:27:50,702 --> 00:27:53,166
for the balcony to really
give it some visual interest
730
00:27:53,168 --> 00:27:56,537

Inside, the team's installing
732

the white geometric tile
in the bathrooms,

installing our light-gray
kitchen cabinets,
736
00:28:07,285 --> 00:28:08,949
which, combined with
our patterned backsplash,
737
00:28:08,951 --> 00:28:11,054
will give this space that
funky greenwich village vibe

finishing up

the judges paneling
under the staircase,

how it turns out.
742
00:28:20,764 --> 00:28:22,128
Boys!
-Good morning.
743

It looks pretty!

00:28:24,268 --> 00:28:26,503
-I'm obsessed with it.
-You like?
745
00:28:26,505 --> 00:28:29,003
M.J.: So my plan is
to keep this mat
746
00:28:29,005 --> 00:28:33,307
and do all of the actual
woodwork in high gloss.
747
00:28:33,309 --> 00:28:34,341
-Okay.
-What do you think?
748
00:28:34,343 --> 00:28:35,411
I think that would
look sharp.
749
00:28:35,413 --> 00:28:37,478
My favorite thing is
that now it, like,
750
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,549
feels like a dining room.
751
00:28:39,551 --> 00:28:42,182
Mina: Like, establishes
the area right there
752
00:28:42,184 --> 00:28:43,353
with the doors
and all that.
753
00:28:43,355 --> 00:28:45,820
-It does.
-Lovely.
754
00:28:45,822 --> 00:28:47,990
Having an open-concept
floor plan --
755
00:28:47,992 --> 00:28:49,690
I mean, it's exactly that.
756
00:28:49,692 --> 00:28:52,894
So something like this,
like the paneling on the wall
757
00:28:52,896 --> 00:28:55,432
that defines the space
is helpful.
758
00:28:55,434 --> 00:28:57,299
So it doesn't, like,
visually break the space
759
00:28:57,301 --> 00:28:58,932
in half like a wall,
760
00:28:58,934 --> 00:29:01,136
but it says,
"this is the dining area."
761
00:29:01,138 --> 00:29:02,969
mina: Did you guys
stay under budget?
762
00:29:02,971 --> 00:29:05,840
I think we spent
around $70.
763
00:29:05,842 --> 00:29:07,140
-That's under budget.
-Yeah.
764
00:29:07,142 --> 00:29:11,044
This little angle right here
took a lot of wood.
765
00:29:11,046 --> 00:29:12,615

this angle or this angle?

-All of them, actually.

All the wood.
768
00:29:15,417 --> 00:29:17,019
So m.J. And I got the boxes
squared away.
769
00:29:17,021 --> 00:29:19,652
And then the trim carpenter
770
00:29:19,654 --> 00:29:21,290
was around the corner
finishing up his day,
771
00:29:21,292 --> 00:29:24,161
so it was kind of just like a
slide in there and help us out.
772
00:29:24,163 --> 00:29:25,227
We were literally
running out of wood.
773

other than 45s...

Terry's got a nice hefty
change order for us,

6,000 bucks.

jute twine

funky bohemian feel.

dreamweaver.

I know it was terrible.
1026
00:39:10,578 --> 00:39:12,547
Karen: It was back here,
and it was awful.
1027
00:39:12,549 --> 00:39:16,051
Very, very rundown kitchen,
so obviously fresh and new.
1028
00:39:16,053 --> 00:39:17,318
We did
the soft-gray cabinets
1029
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,051
and then mixed up
the countertops
1030
00:39:19,053 --> 00:39:20,589
for that kind of, like,
eclectic,
1031
00:39:20,591 --> 00:39:21,722
layered, textured look.
1032
00:39:21,724 --> 00:39:23,626
So we've got white quartz
on the island
1033
00:39:23,628 --> 00:39:25,726
and then butcher block
around the outside,
1034
00:39:25,728 --> 00:39:27,563
backslash accent.
1035
00:39:27,565 --> 00:39:29,697
Oh, my gosh.
There's so much room.
1036
00:39:29,699 --> 00:39:32,368
I'm just surprised at how much
counter space there is.
1037
00:39:32,370 --> 00:39:34,134
-Ton of prep space for you.
-I love it.
1038
00:39:34,136 --> 00:39:35,872
Do you want to take a peek
into the half-bath?

Follow mina.
1051
00:40:00,998 --> 00:40:03,063
A lot of times
the staircases are too steep
1052
00:40:03,065 --> 00:40:04,434
for us to be able to keep.
1053
00:40:04,436 --> 00:40:08,804
But this one actually was
a really good rise and run.

This is huge, actually.

This is a king bed.

Yeah, this is
a big room, then.
1066
00:40:35,764 --> 00:40:38,866
Mom actually made this

out of the original
front-porch railing.

Karen: Gave the top
a little bit of a sand
1071
00:40:45,677 --> 00:40:46,741
so you wouldn't get
splinters.
1072
00:40:46,743 --> 00:40:49,075
But cory helped me
weave the twine.
1073
00:40:49,077 --> 00:40:51,412
Had to make a lamp
to go with it.

-The lamp is killer.
-Yeah.

So to make a master suite,
1079
00:41:00,889 --> 00:41:02,991
we took the bedroom
that was adjacent to this
1080
00:41:02,993 --> 00:41:05,662
and turned it into
your master en suite.

-Ooh!
-Okay, all right.
1105

I love when we have buyers
from the coasts.

They're very reasonable prices
in indiana, yes.
