Fixer Upper: The Carriage House at The Magnolia B&B
Chip and Joanna may be miracle workers but, between their home renovations, The Magnolia Market, The Silos and their new B&B, they can't do everything. So they recruited semi-retirees Rob and Marianne Ward as potential managers to run the bed and breakfast. First, though, they'd have to convince the Wards to move into the adjacent carriage house. And before that could happen, they'd have to undertake a major renovation on the carriage house itself.
BEFORE
The carriage house was built in 1988 and came with three bedrooms, two baths and 1800 square feet. Clearly the roof and porch were in rough shape, but that only told a fraction of the story. Home inspection and demolition uncovered a number of problems including termite damage, rotted floor joists and the need for asbestos removal.
Afterword
If you enjoyed the carriage house renovation project, we feel pretty certain you'd also like the restoration of the 1880 Victorian that became Magnolia House B&B itself. If you haven't already, check it out here.
