Derelict to Dashing - Houston Turnkey Transformation

By Chris Clothier on Tue, Aug 17, 2021

This week’s Transformation Tuesday is from Houston, Texas.

Inside, a non-functional stone fireplace stood in the would-be kitchen, and the beams and fireplace in the grand living room assaulted the eye with muddy earth tones. It took adding a little bit of practical renovating to add the "chic" to this rustic Tulsa residence.
