These photos aren't grouped by area or chronologically. This is an amazing journey. We are over the moon excited. Every time we go to the house there's something new. The workmanship is top-notch. We've been told that this (building a house) is a strain on a marriage. I have to say that it hasn't been a strain for me (Dysthe), but it has reinforced what a SAINT Dave is. We are hoping to move in the first half of March.
(Editor's note: Dave's official position is that this whole process has been a magical time of growth and renewal.)
The pantry and laundry room - mucho storage. The open area is where the stereo and wireless router lives. We did have two speakers installed in the ceiling as well as prepped to add speakers outside one day.
Here is a shot of the patio off of the living room and you can see a little pad outside of the master bedroom as well.
The red dirt will someday be landscaped.
Now onto the kitchen... this is the sink where we will do dishes. The empty spot is where the dishwasher will go. You can see the patios and of course Mt. Hood out the window.
This is the area that the stove / hood and fridge will be.
The wood floors in the living / dining and the same in the kitchen. It's all one room.
It's a White Oak and doesn't have the "finish" on in this shot. It will be finished in a natural (no-stain) with a matte finish.
The same floors in the hallways.
This looks like there's a water stain down the middle - not to worry it's all good - it will be perfect when it's done.
These are the pebble tiles that are on the floor of the master shower. It will be set in a white grout and they feel wonderful on your feet.
The tile in the master bath. The floor is 24" x 24" laid on a diagonal and the same tile in the shower in a 12" x 24" laid in an off-set / brick pattern with the tiles oriented length wise / landscape.
Things seem to be happening fast right now. We will try to keep up. Look for more soon!
