New House Progress Report #7

Sorry for the delay, been busy with work and getting our current house ready for selling. Today our house was listed on the market, so maybe by the next blog entry it will be under contract... That might be a little hopeful, but we shall see. A lot has happened with the new house as you will soon see. They installed siding, built the porch, painted the exterior, and drywalled the inside since last update. The stone and shutters won't go up for a few weeks, but once that happens the exterior will be complete! 


April 13, 2013 - Siding went up pretty quick. I was in Jacksonville during the week they did siding, so I didn't miss much. I'll be in Germany in a few weeks, so hopefully they will be working on some boring stuff then as well. 


April 13, 2013 - Linz on the partially completed porch. We weren't sure how we felt about the diagonal layout on the porch, but we like it now that it's all done. 


April 21, 2013 - Visitors! and insulation¡


April 21, 2013 - Another visitor, and they finally built the front steps.


April 22, 2013 - Just some exterior painting.


April 25, 2013 - Drywall in the kitchen/breakfast/family room.


April 25, 2013 - A shot of our double front doors. You'd think with the glass to mahogany ratio on the doors, they would have been a little cheaper...


April 25, 2013 - A picture of the stained bead board ceiling on the porch and window trim details.


April 25, 2103 - Not the standard angle, but I think I might change it up from here on out to get a better look at the porch and chimney. (I'll keep taking one from the original angle as well so I can do a nice time lapse when it's all done.)

  1. With the way everything is going, I can see a beautiful house standing there near soon. :) Anyway, the color of the shingles goes well with the shade of the siding. Have you found potential buyers for your current already? In any case, good luck!

  2. I'm amaze on how fast the progress of the construction of your house is. With this kind of work, there's no doubt that you can move in earlier than you expected. I've seen in your progress #9 post that you already installed cabinets in your kitchen; white is a nice touch by the way. It's very classy, that even years to come, it will still look beautiful.
