More remodel pictures

Here are some more pictures of things we've accomplished on our remodel project. Sarah's brother helped frame up the basement and top floor rooms, we have a plumber who has plumbed in 3 new bathrooms, and we've put in lots of new windows...

Looking into the new bathroom in the top floor...Looking from the upstairs bathroom into the upstairs bedroom. There will be two closets on either side of the window with a bench seat in the middle. The new basement master bedroom with new fire escape window and looking into the master bath
