Renovating an Old House in Upstate New York - Part 3

Dining Room: Before

The best advice they got: "Our contractor talked us into replacing the old windows. We lost some character, but wound up saving thousands in heating bills."



Dining Room: After

Though they had to replace the beyond-repair tin ceiling with a plaster version, Mark and Lisa added interest to the room by installing beadboard along its lower walls. The antique table, chairs, and rug are family heirlooms, and the wrought-iron chandelier is custom-made. "She started buying stuff for the house a year before we moved in," says Mark, with a laugh. "Plates, silverware, and chairs all piled up in storage."

Bathroom: Before

Since the home had been divided into multiple residences, it didn't come with a true master suite. After the renovation, it not only had a master bath, but three and a half others and six bedrooms.



Bathroom: After

The couple converted a former studio apartment into a luxurious retreat, including this bathroom. The claw-foot tub, by Kallista, shares the space with a glass-walled shower.
