You might want to think about putting more windows in. :)


Kinda like our place....when the guy got through drawing it up, we ended up with 56 windows! Hell, we live in the country and didnt worry about neighbors looking in on us, since nearest neighbor is a mile away. But I wished I would of bought stock in a blind company when it came to buying blinds for them all. And we still havent bought curtains for all of them yet!
 
icandoit, Put a galvanized metal roof on that house! Plenty of roof pitch. Save you some money on A/C bills! I did, I'll never have another shingle!
 
Nice looking house. I really like all the windows. Bedrooms upstairs? Vaulted ceilings? I built one that looks very similar to this yours. We love it. Looks like you're coming along. Get that roof dried in, plumbing toped out, and you will be ready for sheetrock. About 4 weeks away from moving in.

Be sure and post more pics as it comes along and completes.
 
Dang, you candoit! :shock: Nice home, kinda makes the place I'm putting up look like Granny's cabine behind Jed's mansion. :lol: I like it though. Looks like it's been there for 100 years and it's brand new.
Congradulations to you.

He is right about the metal roof. This might give you an idea what would look like with metal roofing. Looks like you have close to the same pitch as ours, we moved in in January.
just paid this months electric bill 104.00
You been snooping around my place.

Yea Caustic buddy, I made a fortune on those babys, if you call a fortune a hundred bucks a head or so. When I first got the plans back I thought, 'This is going to be fun'. After we got to where we are today I'm thinking,' Wow, this house didn't look this big on the plans'. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and a master downstairs. Over the garage, theres a so called, "bonus room", which is going to be nice for my wifes sewing and my big screen tv for sports when the buddies come over to watch.
No, were not in a hurricane area. As I'm typing this, the sky opened up for about 30 seconds and gave us a dust knocker downer. First water, notice I'm not saying rain, since the last part of May. Brothers coming from CA. and I hope he brings us some of that CA. weather.

What is this substance you speak of that knocks dust down?

Its drier than, Oh never mind can't use that one here.

Caustic,
I hate to break this to ya but, it has been raining here for 3 hours. Rain guage says(from the window with binoculars) nearly half an inch.
I told the ups guy that he had the wrong address but he wouldn't box it up and truck it that far to you. Sorry
 
nice looking house, and i know you will be glad to get into it.

good luck

Camp, Those trees ain't hurtin the power bill either. Wish I had a few that size! Thanks for the pic.
 
would y'all put one of those metal roofs on this house? a silver one. it will be vinyl, either white or offwhite(khakiish) will have a porch across the back too if that matters. ive seen some houses that look good and others that look like crap. i guess it depends on the pitch. opinions?

Have no pics to back me up - but have seen this style house with white siding - forest green tin roof and forest green trim and shutters.

It was actually very, very nice.

yeah there is one right down the road, actually. looks good but too close and i sort of had my heart set on silver or either that dark gray color. ive also seen white houses with red roofs (some okay, some make me want to throw up) and a blue roofed one i didnt care for at all, not even a little bit.
 
Then go silver - it is VERY traditional. Nothing wrong with it and it wil never go out of style.
