I am very grateful that we were able to get this within our family's budget.

The first thing my husband said was that he was going to have all that marble removed, and it does look over-the-top in pictures, but it isn't as bad in reality. I think it is a little excessive for the space. Would you believe that all the grandsons love that tub? They can even accept the color. They just keep saying get rid of the window and leave the tub the way it is, and they all have jetted tubs so it is not that. It's growing on me.

I remember all the wallpaper in this house. I was papering a bathroom about the time it came out because that was the rage. I wanted the other bathroom wallpaper for my house, but both were way out of my budget. I also wanted the kitchen/dining room paper at that time, but couldn't afford to paper an area that big, just one bathroom with a cheaper paper. Everything in this house is very nostalgic to me, but we got it for the water, the space inside and ou,t and the proximity to amenities.
