There were a few Material changes along the way. This House was designed and permitted in 2019, but Covid came along. Supply chain disruptions and cost increases delayed the construction until 2024. It is just getting finished in 2025. The Hardie Board Panels are much less expensive then the Hardie planks. Glass railings are going to be cheaper then cable railings, but then you have the dead birds to contend with that fly into the glass railings….

Rear elevation faces West towards a water view.

The exterior side fireplace got raised to the ceiling, I think for an outdoor tv that is bigger then I thought.

The entry walls got squared off- they were suppose to be slanted. And the exterior light fixtures are more traditional/ Carriage House looking then we talked about. The front door is “Prairie Style”, which is out of sorts with the rest of the house. It was supposed to be “Modern”, or just all glass. None of the other windows have the Prairie style muntins….it is a mash up of ideas now. And the chunky lick & stick fake rocks were supposed to be smooth concrete tiles 2’x4’. with an exposed wood header a the top. Totally different looking.

The interior double height space is pretty impressive! The stairs go up to 2 bedrooms on the right. The kitchen is below on the right.

My model shot of the house from 2019. Note the slanted entry walls.

Rear of the house with indoor pool on the lower left side. It is an impressive house with all of the changes and it will be interesting to see how the interior gets finished off now! There was special engineering to figure out the wind load on that 2 story wall of glass in the Great Room. The clients are very happy with how it is coming out. Kudos to the construction team! They have the winter now to finish the interior off for the summer hopefully….they say when you are sheet rocked, you are halfway done.
