It has been while since the last update - lots of inside fnishing work going on so I will try to recap with a few recent pictures. Biggest news is perhaps that we have working toilets and running water (good by port-a-potty!!) This is the kitchen (island in the foreground) -most of the cabinets are now in and the countertops are on. This island is a quartz stone - with flecks of black and green. The other counters are a recycled paper product called Rich-lite in "Chocolate Glacier"- love the name of the color. Sounds perfect for a kitchen, don't you think?! The next picture shows the island countertop being delivered.
The mantel and wood trim are done. We are really pleased with the finished product and love that there's a big knot right in the center of the recyled beam we used for the mantel!
The front entrance is the same stone used throughout the entry and hallways. Can't wait for the flower beds to come to life! Still have a temporary door, but the "real" one should be in soon. Big surprise - it will be a RED DOOR!
This is taken from the kitchen and shows the antique pendant lights we found (well actually Alan and Robin found them, Heidi approved, we checked them out and loved them - so here they are!)
We have one more cabinet section to come this week (upstairs library); still some more finishing work; painting; carpets; final plumbing and electrical -- it's looking like mid-May-ish! My big decisions this coming week are to get all the towel bars and toilet paper holders selected!
Stay tuned!
