Mountain Cottage Bathroom Makeover -Ugly as Homemade Sin!
We have a TINY mountain cottage tucked up on top of a wooded hill, with a million dollar view. However, the value in the home was definitely in the view. Everything in the house was sub-builder grade. And damaged to boot! Rips in the vinyl floor, old renovation dirty seams. It was awful and embarassing!
I started off with "I'm going to lay a luxury vinyl floor myself and be done!" and hubby suggested removing the nasty, stained tub insert, and then my daughter said "Why not get tile?" and...well...eight months and 14 grand later, I have two completely new bathrooms.
Try not to do a remodel during a pandemic! Lordy! So many items weren't available.
Compromises were made. My vanity was hideous, golden oak builder grade. And NOT 60". The alcove was some bizarre size so I had to keep that vanity. Spray lacquered with SW alabaster white, added fantasy brown stone and polished nickel faucets. I have antiqued pewter handles but these are probably temporary. Mirrors are what I could find (pandemic problems)
BEFORE: Master bathroom
AFTER: master bathroom
The master bathroom was this loooong narrow room with a long bare, sad, lonely wall with an alcove tub insert.
BEFORE: master
We removed the tub, added an American Standard Americast tub, white subway tile, polished nickel faucets, added some grab bars cause hey, I'm not getting any younger, tore up the vinyl and laid 4" charcoal hex tile and broke out the power miter and crafted a base board, chair rail with ledge/cove and vertical boards.
AFTER: master
American Standard Americast soaker tub. Yes, I read the 15,456 bad reviews on the suggested drain for this soaker tub so we built our own using a Moen drain and overflow kit.
Before: Guest bath
It was tiny, awful, cramped, sad, beat up and the shower insert was like taking a shower in a coffin. What you can't see here is the rose wallpaper border. ROSE WALLPAPER BORDER, yall! Oh my heavens!
I designed and hand-set grey and ecru mosaics, increased the shower size, added subway tile, and put interest on the walls with trim work.
AFTER: Guest bathroom
I'm still needing 2 master vanity lights and my shower drain, but all in all, it's finished. Pandemic or not, we got this done!
