The House Design - January 2014


We started the house design process after we purchased the land.  We were inspired by mountain home designs, with an open floor plan, one level living, cathedral ceilings and a BIG window in the living room.  We designed a home with main level living, including a master bedroom and bath, and open living room, kitchen and dining room with cathedral ceilings.  The lower level is a finished walk-out basement, which has two bedrooms, a full bath, office, family room, and utility space.  We drafted a floor plan using sketch up to get us started, and then we consulted with a professional to help us to improve the plans, and complete the construction drawings.  Our professional designer happens to be my cousin Kim, and she did a fantastic job!  We spent a lot of time planning and making decisions during this process, but it was worth it, and we are really excited about the house plans!
