The Cottage Renovation.....a labour of love.
So even though we knew we wanted to live on the water we didn't think we would be able to afford to buy a house big enough (at least for several more years anyway) so we bought this little cottage. We only used it as a cottage for a couple of months and then a great opportunity came up just down the street. So now we rent this cottage out and spend all our energy renovating our house.
I know what you are thinking.......It doesn't look like much. Well let me show you the before and after photos and you will get an idea of why we are so darn proud of this little place. We got a great deal on this cottage but everybody still thought we were crazy (cue the before pics)! Some people were silent through their entire tour.....lol........I think we had the last laugh! Here we go....................

Big thanks to my dad and Uncle Frank for their renovation help and to my awesome siblings and cousins for helping to lay all the flagstone and paint, paint, paint!
