And here it is now – fresh, bright and beautiful. I have to keep going back and forth to really appreciate every detail! It looks like the cut out wall was modified to incorporate a railing – much more stylish and modern. The whole space is welcoming and ready for entertaining a large group of friends and family. And here’s a view through to the back of the house. From the looks of it, I’m guessing there were a lot of walls opened up in this place.
I have 2 1/2 acres, some grass, but mostly willow that just keeps muliplying every year, evergreens and birch. I am a grama, but my grandkids are far away. I want something appealing, but easy to take care of, I have no idea what to do, I am getting up in age and its hard to run the lawnmower.
s updated ranch style home tour
Our kitchen is truly the hub of activity in our house, as I’m sure it is in most homes. Admittedly, when we moved in, I wasn’t in love with these cabinets. Our last house had white cabinets with nickel handles, and these hickory ones took some getting used to.
We still have usable space in all three drawers. Like most of the house, this space gets changed up seasonally. If you want to see some photos of the room before we painted it, and learn how to paint paneling, you can gohere.

A full bathroom is convenient to all downstairs rooms. Lower level includes a daylight laundry room, a complete bathroom with shower, and plenty of area for recreation, extra bedrooms or a full workshop. This home has two medium-sized bedrooms and a master bedroom with separate lavatory facilities. A well-planned U-shaped kitchen is just a few steps from the separate rear service area. Minimum bedroom hall opens directly to a full-sized bathroom . And includes separate linen and towel closets.
Exposed beams leading into a pitched ceiling set the character of this modern ranch style home. The overhanging roofline extends to form a complementing carport, and provides protection for the front approach. Separate dining room is adjacent to the corridor-type kitchen .
Ranch homes 60s style
Notice how this spacious home centers around the well-planned kitchen . Within a few steps of the front door, yet close to the rear service entrance and laundry area. Fold-down combination breakfast-snack bar extends into the family room, with a convenient “pass-through” from the kitchen side. This wood-paneled family room may be used in combination with the living room, or may be closed off with folding doors.
I still don’t love them, but they’ve grown on me and I don’t dislike them enough to paint them. And honestly, they’re so much easier to keep clean than our white ones were. I’m all about low maintenance whenever possible, and they are definitely low maintenance. The island might get painted at some point in the near future, but probably not the cabinets.

That said, I’m so sorry that we haven’t been putting out posts as often as we used to. This has been a crazy season for us on a number of fronts…including my getting a kidney stones and shingles within the past couple of months. It sounds like I’m 100 years old…but I promise, I’m not. Again, thanks for reaching out and take care, D. Hey Kris…thanks for chiming in and for your oh-so-kind words! Yes, I think the interior spaces went through an equally significant transformation.
And you are right…it is MORE than okay to take your time during the transformation process. Yes, some of it is practical…time & money…but some of it is just living in your space and seeing what changes would help you live in your space more fully! From a design perspective, the path also creates a strong visual line pointing to our front door from the street.
7106 Is the closest to what my parents’ ranch looks like. The simplicity and good taste wood paneling offers an agreeable background for modern or traditional furnishings. There’s a warmth and charm to the softly gleaming luster of the paneled walls and ceiling in this room. Here’s the Cinderella-style home, so popular on the West Coast as well as in other sections.
Living room and master bedroom open to a spacious sheltered terrace which, together with breezeway, offers welcome space for summer relaxation. This raised-hearth family room fireplace includes an indoor wood storage compartment. Outdoor extension provides a practical and inviting barbecue for the terrace area.
