Back to the living room and down the hall~

This photo shows the living room looking in from the dining area. We plan to bump the living room space back about 3 feet into the dining area once the remodel is done. We will then re carpet that area and the hallway. We'll probably stay with the same color family of carpet as it is very neutral and has served us well through a few changes in decor. We live out in the country so we have gotten by with only using valances on our windows. The only thing out our front door once you get past our front yard is the road and a corn field.
This photo shows the front doors. I'd love to swap those out someday with a single door and side lights but John is very against that idea. He loves being able to open both doors up when moving large items in and out of the house. He has a valid point. So I'm sure my dream of a beautiful wooden door and side lights will remain a dream :( Right in front of the doors are the stairs to the upper level.

This is the hallway down to the bathroom and master bedroom.
The doorways are as follows...left to right: Bathroom, Master Bedroom and Basement
