Or adding a modern automatic fireplace.

Interior is 2600 sq ft and yard is smallish but will have exterior fireplace and bbq pit as well with or without the pool.Thank you in advance for the help!

There were numerous issues noticed by the inspector that the seller clearly should have known about (broken appliances, large holes in the drywall, turned off toilet that is located over a pre-existing leak, approximately 10 windows that clearly have broken seals/condensation that will need to be replaced, issues with doors and fireplace not working).

It's tough to give suggestions based on only 2 photos, PLUS what works well in Sedona, may not work well in your area.That being said- if it was here, I'd recommend: 1) Hard wood flooring, nice tile, or nice LVP2) Remove the desk3) Change the fireplace to a 2-sided glass fire place, or remove it4) Where the best views are, put in large glass panels5) Remove unnecessary walls and partial walls, to open up the floor plan6) Remove built in storage along walls and go with a generally more modern style What a cool property...

Living Room downstairs with indoor/outdoor rock fireplace and floor to ceiling windows.

All four units have fake fireplaces features, built in bay windows in living room and master bed rooms.

(pressure treated wood contains pesticides)Non-VOC (volatile organic chemicals) paint, caulks and sealantsA corn burning fireplace in the south where furnaces are not necessarily standard wouldn't be a bad idea, to take the chill off cold mornings and damp afternoons and evenings.

The only part I didn't do to my satisfaction on my own home was around the fire place, after seeing a pro do it, I just had to smack my forhead saying, "AH HA!
