our ranch style home










I thought I would share a few pictures of my home.


It was built in 1956, we purchased it about two years ago. Luckily the previous owners updated it, and kept the charm of the era. I really haven't had to do a thing to it except decorate it, which I must say is taking awhile. I would like to change the appliances in the kitchen to stainless though.
My previous home was done in french country, and I really didn't think that style would work here, plus I was ready for a change. So, starting from scratch.... it's taking some time, but half the fun is watching it evolve, right???

    Thanks for stopping by Liz and Tanya! That is too funny that all of us have ranch style homes, I knew there was something I liked about the two of you :) I'm glad that you like mine. We really enjoy this floor plan! I have enjoyed viewing your homes as well.

    Found you via Mabel's House. I love your home. And it looks SO tidy - I'm really envious! We're in the process of choosing a new kitchen but are drawn to glossy black units with granite worktops.

    Hi Nina, Thanks for stopping by and leaving such a nice comment. We put our sofa in front of the window... it wouldn't work anywhere else. I know your dilema though. What did you decide to do?
