OUR NEW HOME


Our new home. The day finally arrived. We sold the town house and closed on our new home all in the same day. The builder told us it took him 100 days from the time he marked the lot for the foundation until the final inspection passed. He's never built one that fast and certainly never in the middle of the winter. The final inspection passed the first time.

The next thing for us is getting the front and side yards landscaped before June 1st-city ordinance. :-)

The new house is almost finished. The plastering on the foundation, a little landscaping in the front and the final coat of paint on the exterior doors to match the green garage doors and the outside is complete. 

 

This is a good picture of the stucco. When the snow finally leaves, the 12 x 16 patio will be poured

 

The Beagle was having a good time checking out the new surroundings for the first time. She had a lot of fun running through the new house and exploring the basement.


This is the Knotty Alder cabinets with black glaze and the Santa Cecilia counter tops.








This is the garden tub and vanity in the master bath.


Fireplace with the mantle installed and the carpet.


The inside needs a few touchups to the paint and the finish hardware. The house will be completed as promised by the builder on March 18th. He told us that he as never built a home this fast before even during the summer months.
