It's beginning to feel like home.


     There's been a big jump forward with our home project. The 'home' now has walls. The big pour was a couple of weeks ago, and now they have removed most of the wooden forms to reveal what appears to be a house! Here you can see the two outdoor pavilions. The closest will be a dining area, and the furthest away will be a seating area overlooking the pool and water view. Got chairs?


      This view is looking up the main entrance staircase towards the dining pavilion and front door. To the left is the pool and main lounging deck. The walls of the house will be white stucco on this floor. Down below we have chosen a darker brown color, Similar to some of the natural stone surrounding this staircase.



      This photo is of the back patio area. You can look through the den out to the water. Just to the bottom left will be the bar-b-q grill. The roofing materials are stored under those tarps at the right. Roofing should begin in a week or so. First they have to finish prepping all the rafters.



      Here's the view from the master bedroom deck looking over at the den and the front part of the house. The windows are 'on-island' and should go in right along with the roofing. Our contractor has moved into hyper-mode.


     


      Check out the house from afar. It's really all falling into place! We are so excited. Pack those bags!

  1. It truly looks like it is coming along quite well. There's a lot to be done, but I'm sure you guys are excited to move in already! Building a house from scratch is one of the biggest projects a family could do, but it seems you are handling it nicely. Good luck with the construction!
