Front of House - No Yard

The front of the house is almost complete. They still have to put in the front walkway and replace our front door (it was stolen a few weeks ago). I'm not sure when we'll get a front yard, but I look forward to having a yard, and not a mud pit (it's rained a lot recently)

Kitchen - early stages

Most of the cabinetry is installed in the kitchen. You can see the island off on the left, but it hasn't been put in place yet.

Stucco & Stone

The Stucco is almost complete. Depending on the light, it's an off white with some yellow tint. In this photo, you can also see the stone installed at the front of the house. We decided to use the back mortar installation which means that no mortar is placed between the stone...they are placed directly together.

Inside Photos










A couple of photos from inside the house. One of the Pex plumbing hub - I'm sure the plumbers love running this tubing rather than copper. Next picture is from the garage door looking toward the door into the house. You can see that some of the dry wall is up and the foam insulation in the ceiling. Final photo is the looking at the insulation in the dining room. You can see the part of the window as well.

The dry wall is almost completely done, and they're working on the stucco as well. Next step is the wall textures and cabinetry.

Top photo is a view of the back of the house. The guest bedroom is the window on the left and the rest is the back porch. The bottom photo shows the back porch.
