Hello everyone,
New home owner with a question about removing part of a wall that separates the kitchen from the living room. I have not spoken to any contractors yet, waiting for the bank to approve a loan. I would just like to hear some input from others with similar situations. Likewise, I completely understand and agree with consulting a professional on this matter.
The prior home owner recently upgraded the kitchen and I was fortunate enough to receive construction before/during photos. I would like to remove roughly 3-4' of a wall the extends from the kitchen and into the living room. Please view the images for further detail. In the images you can see the exposed framing in the walls as well as the ceiling.
My concern is that since my home was built in 1959 that the wall may be load bearing. Does this appear to be the case based on the images?
Thanks in advance.
