Melissa Gorga‘s 5,000-square-foot Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, mansion is “finally” complete.
After sharing several looks at different features of the home for the past several months, the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member returned to her Instagram page, where she showcased the exterior of the property, which recently got a bit of a facelift.
“Finally finished,” Melissa announced on June 24, along with a slideshow of images taken by photographer Manny Carabel. “I’m so happy I found Dan [and Plan Architecture, LLC] so that when we could FINALLY resubmit our plans after all the COVID chaos that my true vision for this house could come to life.”
Melissa then thanked her husband, Joe Gorga.
“[Joe Gorga] I know you wanted to kill me but I’m so grateful for you to make this happen so soon after moving in,” she stated.
In addition to a wall of windows around the front door, which lead to the home’s two-story foyer, Melissa’s updated exterior boasts an expanded front porch and a modern roof.
In before and after photos shared by All About the Real Housewives on Instagram, the updates were seen clearly.
“Per your request. Before and after of the Gorga’s redone home,” they wrote in the caption.
After moving into the home last November, Melissa took fans inside as she showed off her impeccably decorated office, which features built-in shelving and a large chandelier.
She also gave her fans and followers a tour of her kitchen, saying she and Joe “love to entertain” as she included glimpses at the massive space, including the white room’s two large islands and four chandeliers.
As for the outside of the home, the RHONJ star and her husband recently showcased their luxurious backyard as they hosted a party for their daughter Antonia Gorga‘s prom.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 14 will reportedly begin filming after a “pause,” during which producers will assemble a cast for the new episodes.
