The house is really beginning to look like a home. We’ve installed windows to look out on that fabulous view of the lake. The siding has gone up on the exterior and the roof is finished being shingled. The fireplace is all trimmed out and has HVAC installed for it in preparation for the stone work to begin.

The home is really taking shape from blue print to foundation and now the framing of the basement. You can see the shapes of the rooms, doorways and windows. The main level will be next after the floor system is finished. We’ve also added rolls of grass seeds to ensure that the grading is maintained.
