Day 1

In a stark comparison from our last house, the site cut was completed today by lunch time.

Standing roughly where the garage will be looking towards the pad for the lower level

Standing in the pool looking towards the front of the house

Standing in the back corner of the house looking towards the front of the house

Looking where the study will be and the lower floor behind it

At the bottom of the block.  A retaining wall will be built roughly where the fill ends leaving the bottom section of our block the same as what it is now.

Standing on the lower section of the block

The higher level will be the garage... obviously a lot flatter than that though

Nearly There...

It has been a long process, but hopefully in the next month or so, the build will begin.  Even though it has been a long process getting from an initial meeting on site with our architect and builder to our full set of working drawings, it has been fun.  Caroline may not agree though...  If anyone wants to know anything about plumbing approvals I'm sure she would love to help you out.

I am hoping to post more regularly now that things are happening, so I thought I would start with what we hope the finished product will look like...
