Planning our California Dream House

I can’t wait to move in to our new place. I want to wake up on a chilly but sunny California morning with a cup of coffee in hand and enjoy that beautiful view.

But first we need to renovate!

Although the house was lovingly cared for by the previous owners it hasn’t been renovated since -67. And the way people lived in the 60’s is not the way we live today. There was a hidden away kitchen with a separate dining room and the formal living room. The cook slaved away alone in the kitchen, the family ate in the dining room, and if they had a party they entertained in the living room. Today we live a more causal lifestyle and most people, including myself, prefer an open floor plan.

So this week I’m reworking the floor plans to create that irresistible southern California indoor/outdoor open floor plan living I’ve been swooning over. With the sunny 70 degree weather year around it’s a must! And I I love to enter a house seeing straight through the space to a view.READ MORE Planning our California Dream House →
