Alright, I know this is a totally open ended question but I figured somebody on here could at least let me know a general idea what I am in for. I bought my grandfathers place last year with the intention of redoing the house and living in it. It is a pier and beam ranch-style house just a shade over 2000sf and was built in 1968. It has a brick surround with a beams running around for the brick to rest on. It's the original kitchen, linoleum floors, paneling, original bathroom fixtures. The only things really "wrong" with the house is the brick beams have settled and they are going to need to be redone so the house can be re-bricked or we'll have to come up with something else for the exterior. Wiring is also 2 wire.
Would like to pretty much go to the studs and bring it back to life as a more modern house. Would also like to get rid of the flat pitch roof and increase the pitch so that some dormers can be added to give it a little nicer look.
Again, I know that what we do will determine the cost but I'm just wondering what we may be in for.....$60k, $150k, $200k???
Thanks
