If you aren't over it yet ... here's another construction update

As we begin to zero in on closing date ... I seem to be making more trips to the construction site.

Outside, our deck is taking shape.  I'm very excited to have a deck large enough to use as an outdoor space.  It's too late for this year, but I'm asking the Easter Bunny to bring me patio furniture next year  :)





On my next trip, I noted the columns are in place in the entry.



As well as the air conditioner ... since cooler weather is here, I won't need it till Spring, but Jeff is happy to know it's there.


Here's a picture of the deck now that the stairs are in place.


and another angle taken whilst standing on the deck.


The sprinklers have been installed.  These have to go in before the ground gets too cold.  Another item, that we will be happy to have come Spring.


Moving inside, this is the cascading wall that you'll see as you enter through the front door.  It's truly one of my favorite design elements.  It reminds me so much of the cascading walls in Mom's galleria.  On one side is the main floor and the stairs on the left, head down to the basement.



The durarock is in place in preparation for the tile floors in the kitchen and baths.


This picture captures the outlet for the radiant heat floors we are having installed in the bathrooms .. this is going to make the tile floors nice and cozy in the winter months!


The cabinetry is being un-crated (although not yet installed) ... I just love the color (the pictures doesn't do the rouge color justice) and Shaker styling!!


This niche in the office for a flat screen TV.  It's difficult to see in the photo, but the short walls on either side of niche are angled to add a bit of interest.


These pictures are in the family room in the basement.  Or as Jeff likes to call it .. the future home of his big ol' TV.  This picture angles West.


And this picture angles East.  The niche is where the TV components will be located and the doors are resting against the wall where the TV will be projected.
