Still waiting for permits.....

So we are still waiting for the septic permit to be completed.  We ended up bumping the house over about 10 feet last week so that we could put the tanks on the side of the house.  Now we are just waiting on the grading, design and permits to be completed.

In the meantime, I have a few more designs completed for the inside of the house. 

Boys Study Area

The boys have a small loft area near their bedrooms upstairs, and we decided to put a built-in desk there along with small couch, etc.  Here's the desk with shelves...it will be a black weathered finish, which I think will look great with the reclaimed wood floors!  And then a couple shelves above with a cork board (or something to put up a calendar, reminders, etc)

Family Room

We've been round and round on what to do with the family room fireplace.  I finally found a picture of a room to model everything after.

Here's the link to the picture...

And, here's the drawing for our family room.  There will be rough wood beams for the trim and across the ceiling (similar to pic) and then the wainscoting throughout the room to match the wainscoting in the foyer/hallways.

Kitchen/Family Room Desk Area

So, this space started as a built in desk, changed to a closet, and is now a desk in a closet!  Actually, I think it will be a really cute space.  Just big enough to check emails, drop "junk" but not be in clear sight.  And, it will have this great barn door to slide shut when needed!

Basement Bar

Again, another space we've gone round and round on.  The designer had this fantastic idea to do a stone wall in the basement.  So, we'll have that, with a closet and refrigerator on either side of the back bar...and then the front bar in the same rustic oak cabinetry.   Here's a 3D shot of the bar...

And here's the shot of the back bar wall...

I forgot to mention last time that the Dining Room paneling is actually going to be built-in closets, too.  So, the wall will appear as thought it's just a paneled wall, but there will actually be doors/storage behind them.  Hope it turns out!
