(BPT) - Like a first kiss, first car or first day
of school, entrepreneurs and home renovation
experts Ashley and Andy Williams
will never forget completing their
first home renovation project.
“That day began as all our days
do - with organized chaos,” Ashley
said. “We got our two kids ready
for school amid a mad dash of
ensuring book bags were packed,
homework was done and items for
after-school activities were all in
their proper places. We also made
sure that our own go-bag for the
day was filled with almonds, water
and fruit in case a hot property
hit the market. As busy parents
and entrepreneurs, we need the
energy that almonds provide so
we can stay on our A-game from
school drop-offs, house hunting
and everything in between.”
They took the scenic route around
town looking for a project to take
on. That’s when they saw it: a home
that had been sitting on the market
for 236 days, looked like a time
capsule from 1976 (complete with
wallpaper and original kitchen appliances) -
but had incredible potential to be transformed
into a place that any family would want to
call home. Just like the feeling of falling in
love, they said they knew it was the right
project for them. They immediately called
the listing agent to arrange a meeting with
the sellers and sketched out their proposed
vision. The sellers felt their passion for the
property, and the deal was sealed.
Then, the work began. It turned out that
the 1970s charm they loved about the house

was the same thing that threw them curveballs
at every turn. From the outdated plumbing
and HVAC systems to the decades-old wiring
to the foundation and flooring - the house
needed a huge overhaul to conform with
modern building codes. Those first few weeks
of the renovation were long and tiring, but
productive.
Once the bones of the house were up to
code, they turned to the
interior. From choosing
family-friendly, durable
kitchen appliances to
finding the perfect color
laminate that would run
from room to room, they
poured their hearts into
this renovation - just as
they had with their own
home years prior.
Then finally, after five
months of hard work, it
was time to put what
had become their second
home on the market.
“We brought our
kiddos over to put the
finishing touches on the
staging and by the end
of the week, we sold
the home to a young
family who appreciated
the charm and design of
the home as much as we
did,” Ashley said.
Passion. Hard work. Positivity. Family.
That’s what “owning their everyday” means
to the Williams family. How will you turn
your everydays into memorable moments?
