All of the previous suggestions are great but I would do the minimum needed to the house you purchase, until you have decided this is the house your staying in and never plan to move, before you take on several projects that may cost thousands of dollars.
The average villager moves three times.
A fairly new home won't require much repair so most of the changes might be decorative. It is very easy to spend several thousand dollars and then, oops, I decided we should move!!!
Like the old saying, "measure twice and cut once".
