The exterior siding and trim boards will be installed next week. The deck and wood trellis will be built the first week of January.
After seeing some of the wall framing going up we were able to make some field modifications to pick up more storage space. Without a basement this is key to provide areas for additional storage. The first floor now has a walk-in storage room underneath the existing stair. The master bedroom has some additional built-in storage closet that frame into the attic space. The attic will have an 8' wide x 20' long storage room complete with a pull-down stair, insulated walls and fluorescent lighting -- great for Christmas decorations, out-of- season items, etc. etc. Due to some re-framing needed to add headroom at the stair, the second floor den / nursery will also have a small closet.

The bamboo flooring was picked up on Friday along with some bathroom vanities. We're assembling all of the items for the final month of construction. It's time to select the remaining finishes like tile, lighting fixtures and the family room gas fireplace.
The project is moving along on schedule and on budget. The final month will be fun.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
