Photos of my shitty house.

So, our move in date got moved up because they've been working hard on our house!  Yay!  The walls are even somewhat primed.  The colour of the walls now is pretty close to the swatch we chose for the whole house.  Any feature walls and what not will be painted at a later date. 

The stairs from the living room.  You can see the kitchen behind Mike.

Me measuring for window coverings:



Here's the guest bathroom



The ensuite from our bedroom



The landing from the upstairs.  You can kind of see the door to our master and then at the bottom is the living room.

    Don't cry Nebb!  You didn't miss anything major.  I am building a shitty house in the middle of nowhere, i look like a pig.  LisaTyler also wants Salt to choke on her vomit.  Oh and we're pretty sure she books people who come onto the maury show.

  • Lucky - we built off of a showhome that they had in the neighbourhood.  So, you go in and personalize all your colours (inside and out), cabinets, granite, flooring, etc.  We changed a few things... like moved our walk in closet door out of the bedroom and into the ensuite.  The builder we went with does not do custom.  Next house will probably be custom.  Assuming we decide to build again.

    Everyone says how stressful building is, but I have had very minimal stress throughout this all.  Things have gone well and I am good at handling things like this (I am learning anyway, haha).

  • The first time I saw your house in your sig I thought it was the house from UP, not sure why. I think maybe its because of the skewed angle of the picture and it takes a second to realize its surrounded by construction instead of just a lot of openess

    I love the pics you have posted its coming along great and its going to look fabulous when you get everything in :)

    Nah. I used to not change it that much but then I got busy and had new photos I wanted to show off.
  • Mandy,

    DH and I are looking around at new builds and considering buying a lot in the near-ish future. Did you find that a lot of the things you liked were considered "upgrades" or were the standard things okay? The builders don't really give out prices for upgrades, so we're not sure if upgrading through the builder will be worthwhile or if some of the things, like nicer flooring, could be put in later at a better cost.

    What was your experience with that kind of stuff, if you don't mind my asking?
