House Updates

Here is the latest house update a bunch of you have been asking for. The entrance is almost done, well there is still a bunch of work...the stone and slab will be added soon but the cedar and fir is done.
As you enter the white oak hardwood flooring is being installed. It will be sanded, receive a coat of Swedish finish and then be ready to walk on. the second coat will be applied after the kitchen is done. This first view is looking into the kitchen. The second is just a closeup of the wood.
Here is the slate that will be in the entry, around the fireplace and at the entry of the east facing double doors. The dead light of the camera flash really lit up the orange/rust hues. It really has a much darker blue/grey overall look. The grout will be a charcoal black.
Downstairs bathroom with travertine tile work.
The current view from the master bedroom, please feel free to mentally remove the lower house in the way.
Master bath with a darker travertine and ceramic floor tiles.
I did a little landscape work outside in the back and reduced the slope to a more mow-able area.
We thought this would be more of a shady garden area but it receives a lot of light now and with the sun being higher in the summer it will make a great backyard. Plus I can practice with my archery target from the back kitchen door.
That is it for now, Tony
