Our Property

---

There was a lot of cleaning up around the house area of the property. A lot of work went into getting the home and property upgraded for safety. We removed old cars, boats, and other odds and ends you might find. So far we have removed at least 6-40-yard containers of boat waste and other junk. We removed several junk cars and vehicles to Aberdeen's local wrecker and junk site. and still, there is much more to be done with the shop and the back property.

The two major repairs were to have the house repainted and to place old gutters. We picked a Sage Gray color from Sherwin Williams and had the home painted by a professional who did a fantastic job. We had to totally change the front porch and back deck. Neither were up to code and were starting to decline. We had to remove the previous owner's small mudroom off the sliding door area and build new decking, handrails, and steps. We had a chain link privacy fence installed around 3 sides of the house to separate the shop from the home and, of course, privacy. Our hope in the future is to have the front side done as well. The old garage is included inside the fence and is currently blocked off from access. We plan to have that removed and put an event station built (an outdoor covered area for barbecuing, family gatherings etc.). 

We chose a shade of white for all walls for a seamless look. The previous flooring was mostly a beige carpet and some linoleum in the laundry room and bathrooms. The Kitchen had some laminate flooring but had been damaged by a water leak. We chose a new laminate flooring for the entire home, this is easier to clean and again, a seamless look to the entire home. More upgrades with LED lighting, USB outlets, towel hangers, knobs for cabinetry etc. Because this was to be a vacation rental I wanted it to have a minimal look and show more space. 

Future plans for the rest of the property is still being planned. Like most people, we have busy lives and the success of The Grayland House will help determine it's future.
