7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project – Making Progress Get a behind the scenes look and be a part of the transformation during the 7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project! This renovation may be part of a new show on HGTV with New York designer Cindy Montgomery! I’m hoping to take this from a vacant house to a valued home in the community of Covenant Hills located in Ladera Ranch! Using white river rocks in the laundry room for the flooring with white Quartz counters and white shaker cabinet doors. The grout in between the rocks will be bright white and almost level with top of the rocks. Lastly there will be 2 1/2 in thick white shelves that will be mounted on the walls so they look like they are floating. Loving the way this space is going to look. Marble tile in the master shower turned out really nice. Marble slabs going in next! Family room wall all framed out and ready to install the folding doors. It will have a great indoor outdoor feel leading to the pool, outdoor living area and views. Stay tuned for more behind the scenes photos to come! Thank you for reading.

This renovation may be part of a new show on HGTV with New York designer Cindy Montgomery! I’m hoping to take this from a vacant house to a valued home in the community of Covenant Hills located in Ladera Ranch! Master bathroom looking better already. All the soffits, fake beams and posts were removed. New pony wall framed out for the shower. Starting the framing around new tub. The bathroom is much more open with cleaner lines now. I used Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter for the dining room. The ceiling came out great with White Dove semi-gloss on the beams and flat in between the beams. Love this gray because it has no green, beige or blue undertones. Stay tuned for more behind the scenes photos to come! Thank you for reading.

7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project – The Foundation Get a behind the scenes look and be a part of the transformation during the 7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project! This renovation may be part of a new show on HGTV with New York designer Cindy Montgomery! I’m hoping to take this from a vacant house to a valued home in the community of Covenant Hills located in Ladera Ranch! Waited 2 weeks for this amazing whitewashed with gray under tones and distressed flooring. They delivered 4500sf of it to the property. Unfortunately, what was delivered looked liked the board on the left. It’s pink! The sample boards on the right is what it is supposed look like. Not for the faint hearted! This is how you fix a house that has a cracked foundation, jack it up against the bedrock. Seems scary, but it’s pretty simple. New floors came in on Saturday! Thanks to Belmont Flooring for switching it out so quickly. Decided to go with a gray over white washed flooring. Now we need to change some of the wall colors in a few rooms and even changed the trim color. Back on track! Stay tuned for more behind the scenes photos to come! Thank you for reading.

7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project – The Demo Get a behind the scenes look and be a part of the transformation during the 7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project! This renovation may be part of a new show on HGTV with New York designer Cindy Montgomery! I’m hoping to take this from a vacant house to a valued home in the community of Covenant Hills located in Ladera Ranch! As usual things don’t go as planned…the old wood floors were glued to the subfloor. The subfloor was supposed to be plywood but instead it was particleboard. As we pulled up the old floor it pulled up most of the particleboard. Now we have to take out the old particleboard and put down new plywood. Decided to get rid of the entire hard scape around the pool and outdoor living area. The rust color slate didn’t go with the Colonial architecture. Looks better already! Get a behind the scenes look at this transformation! Stop by 7 Stellar Isle in Ladera Ranch on Saturday, July 25th from 10am-12pm & Wednesday, July 29th from 2 – 4pm! Thank you for reading.

7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project – The Beginning Get a behind the scenes look and be a part of the transformation during the 7 Stellar Isle Renovation Project! I have renovated over 100 homes – this time I’m renovating for my family. This renovation may be part of a new show on HGTV with New York designer Cindy Montgomery! I’m hoping to take this from a vacant house to a valued home in the community of Covenant Hills located in Ladera Ranch! This is how rehab projects start out…kind of hard to tell how it’s going to come out, right? Now that the master bath is demo’d I can start to see what to do. Post has to go, all the soffits and fake beams need to be removed. The cave like shower will be opened up and seamless glass installed. Take out the Whirlpool tub and install Jason therapy tub. Found this beautiful carpet for the staircase. Looks great with the distressed whitewashed flooring I’m going to use. I got rid of that ugly hood and back splash! Making room for a Viking stain steel hood, Calcutta Marble back splash and counter tops. Get a behind the scenes look at this transformation! Stop by 7 Stellar Isle in Ladera Ranch on Saturday, July 25th from 10am – 12pm! Thank you for reading. Jeff Pittman, Realtor in Ladera Ranch – Orange County,...
