It is hard to accurately describe how fast this project seems to be moving along. Dorann is doing a great job making sure that our contractors have information ahead of when they need it so that we cause no delays. I went out to snap some shots tonight and hopefully you can get a picture of what things will look like.
Click on image to enlarge:
1) View of new covered porch at rear of addition:
2) Outside view of away room (room behind the garage). The window juts out from the room and will have a built-in bench. I really like the interesting roof angles.
3) Another View of the porch. Dorann is picking the columns now. The bricks look good!
4) View of kitchen and existing Dining room:
5) This will be the doorway to enter the expanded dining room. The wall behind the new door will be going bye bye.
6) The away room main window. A bench will be built in front of the window for enjoying a good read while relaxing inside.
7) Cathedral ceiling in new family room/kitchen. We are making sure to have plenty of lighting which is a huge complaint we have with existing rooms in the house.
8) The new kitchen will be placed here. There will be a 9+ foot island with a large eat-in area for barstools. We can imagine the crew having breakfast there for many years to come.
9) I am standing in the new kitchen looking toward the Away Room. The high windows should give a nice view of the Smith's colorful bushes in Spring.
What is truly amazing is that the basic outside frame was up within a week of the previous post. The guys have been working on framing the interior rooms and closets, adding windows, and getting ready for electrical and heating to be added next.
Zev, Jessa, Eliana, and Davica are still enjoying watching the guys come in a work in the mornings. Eliana especially looks forward to seeing Mr. Dave, as she is a hopeless flirt.
