Construction on new house

We got to the construction site today about 1 pm and the workers were busy. Yesterday we came out but didn't have the camera but there were no workers present. This view is from the end street that "t's". Each way goes to a cul-d-sac. Our lot goes to the middle of the cul-d-sac on our end. The house on the left was just started in early January. They move in tomorrow!! I can't believe how fast this process will take. We may be in the house in early Sept!! Wow. I hope I have furniture. It's still in storage. Oh well, we can stay in the mh until we get it.





Below is the view from the car when we arrived today. No sheeting was up at this time.



The picture below is from the motorhome pad in the back of the lot looking to the back of the house. The master br is on the right and the garage is on the left.

The motorhome pad is 45 ft by 19 ft and about 3 ft off the ground in the front. We were assured that the driveway would be gradual up to the pad. The foreman is meeting with the architect this week to make some changes to the rv space design. That will probably be the last thing they do.

It does have water, sewer, and electric.

This is a view from the front left corner of the lot. The house is set back from the street 125 ft.

Terry is in the great room and you can see the arches in the foyer behind him.

Another view from the street looking at the front of the house. I think we will have a driveway that goes from the front street across the yard to the side street between the far tree on the left and the tree to the right of that.

As you can see below the sheet is going up pretty fast. They have left out a window on the far right wall on the front which is in the sewing room. This window faces the front street. We saw the contract foreman and he said that would be taken care of later. No problem!!

The view below is from the neighbors driveway down the side street to the front of our house. This house is owned by a single lady that we haven't met. She hasn't moved in yet since it is in the final stages of construction.

The picture below is of her house since it has the same stone work that we will have but part of our house will be stucco. Also she has the same roof shingle that we picked.

The "corbels" in the foreground go under the eves along the front and side of some of the house. In the background is the closet for the sewing room and farther back is the sewing room with the wall that "doesn't" have the window yet.

I'm standing in the garage to take this picture. You can see the workman cutting some sheeting.

That's it for now and I'm sure this will look a lot different in a week.

More later.
