When we purchased this house, the interior was truly hideous. The tongue and groove, which can be seen on the left and right side of the photo, is in pretty good shape. But why did the previous owner have to add paneling to the flat walls? The photo shows the loft area of the house, which is the master bedroom. We currently have our bedroom here, but we must wind our way down the spiral stairs (again, hello seventies) to get to the bath, and there is little privacy as the living room is just below.Note the groovy hanging pendant, the shaggy pile carpet, and the plywood platform bed. Could there be any more brown in this space?
I grew up in an a-frame, custom-built in the year 1966, mom was expecting my sister. Shag carpeting, green, maybe. My bedroom was orange. My parents had turquoise dining room. Kristin got a baby room. Our brother would follow in 2 years. Tall windows in the living room. Loft. Cool. I miss it at times and still like the style. A deck on the left, Extra "toy room" could be an office now. Loft was a bedroom, too. My sister's had vaulted ceilings in her houses since growing up in this house. Modified plan, sweet bedrooms. Living room: Expansive, Fireplace. Lots of company.
