It looks like you need help with the bedroom. So, take better pics that are not fuzzy and the pics should show all 4 walls.

Also - what do you really need advice on? Paint color? Bedding? Curtains? Furniture layout? Etc...

A floor plan with dimensions indicating all windows and doors would also help to give you valuable suggestions.

I wanted to do an update. We were wondering if we should do some updates on our home even if we planned to move in a couple of years. We decided to go ahead and make our home more comfortable and pleasant for use to live in. I realize we might not get the money back, but in the mean time we are enjoying our house a lot more. We got a new heatpump and AC a year ago, it cost $4,100. I noticed our electric bills have been lower and the system works very well. We also got the kitchen cabinets refaced, and all new full extention drawers and knobs. That cost about $4,500. We updated our old range and OTR microwave for about $1,000. We had done the countertops, backsplash, sink, faucet, and floor about 5 years ago. In the bathrooms we got granite countertops, undermount sinks, and new faucets, and put frames around both mirrors. That cost $2,000. My husband raised the height of the countertop in the masterbath and built a large drawer with an electric stip in it for my hair dryer and flat iron. I stained the cabinets a deeper color to finish updating the look. We had replaced the floors with heated floor tiles in a travertine looking tile earlier. Lastly, we replaced all the windows (I decovered several of them were mildly fogged). That cost $4,800. We also replaced a couple of ceiling fans. We paid cash for everything and I think we got good value for what we did. I am much happier with my home now.

IMO pillars don't go with your house. There is a few ways you can dress this up, I would consider doing something like this just to give you an idea. You can also dress up the corners using white trim board, etc Good luck

You have a lot going on with all the different roof lines and windows and columns. I think what's throwing me off is the two-tone white and brown. I think if all the white and brown was just one colour it might simplify your house visually and bring out the beautiful architecture. At first I thought to paint it all white but then I thought maybe a darker tone of your roof colour. Not sure. As for the ivy, yes, remove it. It covers your red brick and makes the bottom part of your house look squat. Remove it and the bottom red brick will visually be in more proportion. You have a lovely house, the roof line is really cool! Good luck!

Congratulations on your new beach place. You must be very excited. Is this going to be a secondary residence for just family or do you plan to rent it out as well? What area of the country is it in? I think I understand that you want to replace all the flooring with one choice. This will eliminate carpet in bedrooms and the two laminates in the great room and kitchen. I think there are a lot of options that will work with your cabinetry. I don’t think you should worry about the stained door, a quart of paint and that will match the trim. Are you only considering laminate? What about Lvp or tile?

I like the blue curtains. Get bedding in that color. The bed could use a headboard for more presence.

Dressers should not be next to each other. Maybe get one bigger one.

I don't see any artwork. Put up a picture you like.

You could use an area rug next to the bed. White would be nice.

It's difficult to see much of the room to get a good idea but here are some suggestions taking into consideration the colour of your walls.

- Give your dressers a fresh coat of white paint and unify them by using the same pulls on both, I show 2 options, 1) White finger pulls if your drawers can take them or 2) silver finish pulls. Or, option 3) no pulls at all depending on how the drawers are made.

- If you don't have one, get a headboard, I show an inexpensive rattan one

- A blue & green bedspread or duvet cover with propped-up pillows against the headboard

- Artwork you like picking colour from the bedspread

- White curtains, they could be with grommets, they'll look good on the rod (they should be hung higher up on the wall than what you presently have

- A natural fiber mat, I show a blue on with natural edge but could also be all natural.
