Christmas 2010 house pics

This year has been so exciting for us because of the house. Here's the latest as we click over to 2011 and imagine ourselves enjoying the breeze off Lake Pend Oreille come summer. For now, we have to be content to look upon these photos and dream.

Rear elevation (the first floor backs into the hill)

We like the cedar siding and shingles that were applied after the framing was completed.

South elevation (entry way)

North side elevations (stairwell/kitchen)

Stairwell

Living room windows and second floor balcony

The windows facing the lake will mean views from the living room and the master bedroom on the second floor. The master bedroom also has a small balcony which will no doubt be the sight of some fine lake gazing and wine drinking.

Can you see where we'll be sitting? It's just in front of those sliding doors. Or it could be you...
