Full speed ahead?

 With 20 days to go, went to the house yesterday to find out that it has been possessed by a crazy shock wave  of progress. The pictures show what was done sometime between Monday and Tuesday. (Posting from phone for first time, results maybe unpredictable)

  1. 20 days will fly by. We are a few days behind you. I am so happy your house is almost done. I really love your staircase, that was the one sacrifice we made with the Rome.

    1. It is all about trades.. We would have given up the stairs for your walk out basement, but that was not possible in this case. We should be on about the same time schedule at this point. We had our predrywall meeting two weeks before you, but then suffered a 2 week set back! So, 20 days will fly..

    2. You are right Ella May! It is all about the trades and what is important to the lifestyle of each family. I love the cascading steps and wished the Rome offered it but it doesn't. My trade off was the loft. Your home is looking pretty good. We have a model close by that I was happy to see and it's decorated so nicely. You are going to love living in your new home.

    1. Thank you, they both turned out great. I hope the staining color will work out all right on the stairs.. Your house is a much bigger home and you were already a couple of weeks ahead of us when you last posted, you are probably all moved in by now :)

    1. Funny, I had to go see what view from window you were talking about.. It is great as long as you look at an angle..If you look straight back it looks into the only existing house in the whole development, and it is directly behind us! I see a big privacy fence in our future..

  5. Lo-va-Ly! Your house is really coming along! Are the double doors in the master bathroom standard or was it an option? I don't even remember us even having that as an option.

    1. Thank you, it is coming along. The double doors are standard for master bedroom and bath. The double doors shown in the drawing for the bonus bedroom are NOT double doors.. That is best explained as an architectural drawing screw up, or Ryan Homes too cheap to provide proper double door to fit that door frame, so they use single door instead.

    2. Good to know the master Bath comes with double doors. That clarifies things for the bonus room, I would have sworn I saw double doors on the floor plan drawing. How about the media room door in the basement is it double doors too? I had checked with my SR and she just checked on the drawing and said it was, who knows if it could be another screw up too? Please post as many pictures of the bonus room and study if you can. Would love to see those.

    3. I am pretty sure the media room has double doors. But we don't have a finished basement, so that shall remain a mystery for us!

      Next batch of photos hopefully will have some more of what you are looking for.. Just not able to go out there these last 3 days..

    1. Thank you, but your house looks so much ahead of ours in progress! Of course we don't have any fancy tiles and what not, so we may really make it :)
