Consistent Wall Texture Throughout Home Or Not

[John Newland]

I have a rehab property in process that is past the demolition process and at the point of starting to get put back together. It is a three bedroom ranch. The bathroom has been gutted to the studs, and the kitchen has had all cabinetry removed. The living room, hallway, and bedrooms all have a sandy texture on the wall unlike I have seen before. The kitchen walls are perfectly smooth, almost like a venetian plaster. There is a wall with a doorway that separates the kitchen and living room.

I like a consistent finish throughout, but I think if the sandy texture was to be replicated it in the kitchen and bath would not look right. I would just assume keep the walls smooth in the kitchen and bathroom and go with a different color in there as well. Looking for input or ideas. This is a rehab for resale. It will be an entry level home for the area but will include a new kitchen with granite and a new bathroom. Any input is appreciated.

Thank you
