So, my house is the old model version, I would also love to remodel the roofing style to make it look model. The house is not a build in, so i would like to have it having in-built furniture. The house is not tiled, would like it to be tiled on the floor. There is no sewage and kitchen facilities, would like to have them installed as well with the building of additional bathroom in one of the rooms. The house has 5 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 kitchen, 1 dining room, citing room, balcony, and double garages. The needed additions would be 1 bathroom and a study area.
