This week, we visited the house on Saturday and were really happy with the progress. Believe it or not, it was hailing little tiny "dippin' dots" when we got to the house although it had been 85 in Denver on Friday. Two weeks in a row, we've had bad luck with weather on our site visits.
This first picture, through the hail, shows the finished stain on the garage. We have a natural stain on the cedar shingles and cedar siding and a darker stain to accent on the garage door cross members and facia boards.
Around back, you can see that same dark stain on the trim around the doors and windows. We also chose to keep the timbers natural colored to better show the wood grain. Here you can see the roofers finishing up their work on the shingles. They expect to have the roof complete in about another week or so.
The deck railing came out great - below is a detail picture of what the railing looks like up close. The grid is called 'cattle fencing' and the railing is similar to what we used inside the house on the railing for the stairs & catwalk.
Inside the house, we were happy to see how great the hardwood floor is looking. Roughly 1/2 of the main level is now covered in the hardwood flooring and we expect that to be completed this week before we visit again. We used a 7" wide, hand scraped product which gives the floor a very rich feel and will hopefully be very durable.
The lighting is also mostly complete. Here in this picture you can see all the cans in the kitchen plus the fixture over the breakfast area and the pendants over the eating bar.
Up the staircase, these sconces look really great - a nice mixture of modern & mountain feel.
Looking up at the roof peak in the great room you can also see the finished catwalk railing and some of the lighting way high up in the ceiling. The ceiling fan also made it into this picture as well as the chandelier in the entry way.
Finally, the finish plumbing is complete. This picture below is the second shower head (handheld) in our master shower.
