[quote=Anonymous]We also have a midcentury modern. Ours was built in 1960. We just spent $300k - renovations started on Labor Day in 2024 and finished right around New Year's Day. The first estimate was $500k and we decided that was too much so we scrapped the addition (we'd hoped to add a new master bedroom/bath plus additional space in the basement) and just went with the rest of the project which was renovating all three bathrooms and our kitchen, adding a home gym in our basement (finished a previously unfinished space), all new landscaping, painting the entire interior, wrapping our exterior trim in fiber cement, new front stoop, etc. No regrets but my kids are 20 and 17 and we did not need more space. We also love our lot and did not want to move.[/quote]
