You can see the progress of new construction below. We are doing this because there are many
people that have never gotten to watch a new home going up, and thought they might find it interesting.

Note: at the bottom is a section for "interior" pictures that show "before
& after" shots
We dug the hole and are getting the footings
in.
|
|
|
After the snow storm ended we started blocking it up
|
|
|
Blockwork is all finished
|
|
|
Missed a couple days of pictures, but we waterproofed, backfilled
and started framing.
|
|
|
|
All the main level decking is on and we're standing walls
|
|
|
Main floor Interior walls are up, and most of the sheathing
is on. The 2nd floor joists etc will be starting next.
|
|
|
|
2nd story floor is on, and the walls are going up
|
|
|
|
Finishing up the second floor, and putting up the garage.
We'll be ready for trusses in a day or two. It's starting to look like a house now.
|
|
|
Got started setting trusses
|
|
|
Picture taker missed a couple days, but the framer didn't.
Trusses up, roof's on. Now we'll add the covered entry.
|
|
|
Picture taker missed a few days again. The entry roof is
on, the interior is all finished and cleaned up, and the ice/water shield & roofing paper is on. We'll have shingles in
the next few days. Then the mechanical rough-ins start. Heating, Electrical & Plumbing. Not much to see for awhile.
|
|
|
|
Windows & doors are in, now most of the work is going
on inside. Electrical, heating, plumbing, then insulation, sheetrock, paint, hardwood & ceramic flooring, trimming etc. so
there won't be much to take pictures of for awhile.
|
|
DONE! and we're ready for you to make this house a home!
Trees, sod & sprinkler system are all in
|
INTERIOR BEFORE AND AFTER

Here is a shot from the entry looking up to the "sitting
area" that will overlook the open foyer. You'll also see the skylight from here. How's your imagination?..... Can you "see"
it? At the right you can see it after it's finished. How was your imagination?

Here you are looking at the huge foyer window from the front edge of the loft
sitting area.

Here you are looking at the huge foyer window from
the back of the the sitting area.

|
Here you are looking from the kitchen through the dinette area into the family room.
You'll be amazed at how much larger the rooms look once they get sheetrocked. There will be a 1/2 wall w/column separating
the dinette & family room. Far right is the finished pictures.

Here you are looking from the family room through the dinette area into the kitchen. The
door to the right goes to the laundry/mudroom.

This house has a GREAT kitchen.See the pics at right!

So often the "main" bath gets neglected. Here we stuck in
a skylight, and it now makes the bath a bit unique, plus its bright!
|
A glimpse of the master bath. There of course is a separate
shower also.

From the dinette looking into the Formal Dining room

From the foyer to the Formal dining room, note the extra
detail on the archway

View from Master BR, and the view from the 2nd front bedroom is similar.
