Walking photo tour, house near completion

The house is in the final stages of completion, so I thought I would take the time to give you a photo walking tour of the house.  We'll start outside:

Here is the house from the street (notice we have grass already!!).  The yellow rectangles in the yard are seed blankets to placed to keep the grass from washing away.  There are gutter drains at the top of each yellow blanket.


Here is the front door, the door has a 60/40 split.  Shelly and I thought this was a unique feature that added a nice extra touch.  Let's step inside and have a look around:


After you walk inside, you come to the living room.  The fireplace is gas, you can see 2 dark circles in the ceiling these are the recessed speakers for the surround sound system. 


From the living room, the kitchen is too the right.  The decorative posts frame the kitchen nicely.  From this position there is a deck to the left.  We'll have a look at that next...


The decking is a composite material that should last longer and be less maintenance than real wood.  The deck is screened in with a ceiling fan that rotates at an angle (or precesses for all the mri folks).  You can see a little bit of the lake in the right side of the image.  We'll step back inside for a look at the kitchen and dining room


Standing in the kitchen, you can see the door that leads to the deck.  Then obviously you can see the empty space where a table will be one day.

Looking to your left you can see the living room.  The refridgerator cabinet eagerly awaits our fridge.  Next to the fridge we have our microwave built into the cabinets.  In the foreground you can see the handle for the dishwasher.

To the right you can see where the stove will go one day.


Near the kitchen is the guest bath, here's a peak inside:

We'll go up stairs next,  here is the stairwell:


The hall:

That's most of the house, I'm tired of writing for now... Maybe I'll add a little more later.
