1990 Patriot
Posted: Wed Nov 11, 2015 8:22 am
Greetings and Salutations to everyone.
I have purchased a 1990 patriot mobile home that was remodeled by the previous owner I have been following some of the threads on this site and found much useful information however other than personal touches and routine maintenance I forsee no major issues.
The previous owner has clad the kitchen, living room and hallway with wood car siding which adds a rustic touch to the home as well as hand made trim work that was made from 1x4 lumber that was handworked to look old.
The floors in the living room, hallway and main bedroom are laminate wood flooring the bath 2nd bedroom and kitchen has vinyl flooring.
The kitchen cabinets have handmade doors on them which adds to the rustic feel also the washer dryer closet is located in the kitchen alongside a pantry that is very spacious.
The best part is the deck on the front that is 15x20 and is very appealing as it has been handworked to look rustic as well.
The underpinning will need some work but as we are headed into winter it will suffice for now then I will begin the process of repairing the surface patches that the previous owner has made I am planning on replacing the top rail as well as some panels and placing stakes behind the bottom tracks this spring as it has been pushed in in places and looking into prices on metal siding for the underpinning as it will be more durable.
Well that is all that I have for now.
