Left Side

Front

Right side.  The chimny looks good.

Framing for the fireplace.

The supports for the incorrectly place chimny have been removed.

Rear view

Side roof line

Patio Door

Rear elevation.  The top left windows are in the master bedroom.  The top center window is in the master bath, above the bathtub.  The top right windows are in the guest bedroom.  Lower left windows are the great room, followed by patio doors in the dinette, kitchen window and laundry room window.

We have a chimney!  We're the only ones in the neighboorhood so far with a woodburning fireplace.

Windows in the staircases.

Still no framing for the fireplace, but there is a hole that gives access to the chimney.

Half wall in the great room.

Detail framing in the dining room.

They installed the proper staircase.  The one that was in yesterday's pictures didn't have the flair at the bottom.

Looking into my office from the top of the stairs.

2nd Bedroom

Master bedroom

Master bathtub

Good advice.

Guest bedroom

Looking down the hallway to the guest bathroom.  The shower/tub combo is not positioned correctly yet.

Pitch of the vaulted ceiling in the master bedroom

Back downstairs.  Looking towards the kitchen from the dining room.

View from the kitchen to the dining room.

Front/side view.

The rooms behind the sloping roof over the garage is our guest bedroom and bathroom.  If you visit us, chances are you will stay there.  Unless there is no room at the inn.

Our patio door sitting in the middle of the garage.

Stairs leading up to the 2nd floor.

Front door

Ceiling over the dining room

The support for the chimney in it's proper location.  They haven't fixed the framing on the interior yet.

The pair of windows over the front door will be my office.  The windows above the dining room will be our nursery someday.  The half-framed room barely visible in the upper right hand corner will be the master bedroom.

This is a view looking in through what will become our front door.  The area currently occupied by the large plastic bag will be our coat closet and behind that will be the powder room.  The window in the background will be in the great room.

This area will contain stair cases to reach the basement as well as the second floor.

The back of the great room.  The framing between the windows is where they incorrectly started installing the fireplace.  This should be a flat wall.  The fireplace should be on the wall to the right of the current view.

Looking from the great room into the kitchen.  The window will be above the kitchen sink.  The window in the background will be in the laundry room.

Now we're between the kitchen and the great room.  The large opening will be our patio door.  The thing that is hard to see from this picture is that the patio door is “bumped out” two feet from the rest of the rear elevation.

A view of the powder room with the coat closet and front door beyond.

Side elevation showing the window in the basement staircase.

Okay.  I'm really muddy at this point.  It's raining and I'm trying my best to keep the camera dry.  This rear elevation shows that the work on the fireplace was more extensive than we thought from the internal view.  That support will have to be relocated somehow.  This view does show the two foot dinette bump-out more clearly than the interior view.

Close up of the incorrectly placed chimney support.

Front elevation.  The two windows are part of the dining room.  The garage is on the left and the front door is at center.

Another front view.

View from the other side.  The red object to the left holds foundation forms for the house being built next to ours.

Rob took these pictures while we were on vacation.  One of the shots alerted us to the fact that our fireplace is being installed on the wrong wall.  Fortunately, we found it early enough that it shouldn't be too much hassle to get fixed.
