FINAL MONTH.....

front elevation with cedar fence

Progress has been moving at a slower pace for a number of reasons but we are now approaching the final month of construction.  A gray color palette has been chosen for the exterior.  The siding, fascia and soffits are installed and the shingle roof is complete.  The front bay will be clad in a cement-board type siding and painted a contrasting dark gray.

rear yard with new sod, stone pavers, and trellised patio with bench and fire pit.

The rear yard has been landscaped with new sod, small bushes, a raised stone planter and paving stones.   The rear house deck and the patio will allow for multiple uses in the yard with great options for both kids and adults.   The front yard has another raised stone planter with additional landscaping.

front concrete walkway

The concrete sidewalks have been poured for the front of the house and extend all the way back to the alley.  The front walkway will have river rock added to frame each of the concrete blocks.


insulated walls ready for drywall

We have received all of the city of chicago building inspections and the walls are now insulated.  Next week the windows will be installed, drywall will be hung and then taped. Final material selections such as tile will be finalized next week.  Interior finishes will begin soon.   


     Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous 2015
