Our New Home Takes Shape

Little by little our new home is taking shape.  It looks big.  But much of that bigness is the extra deep 3 car garage on the right.  We had an extra 4' of depth added to the 2 car garage at our present house and found it super useful so we added 4' here too.  So, why a 3 car garage for 2 people?  Simple, while we'll be free of a suffocating HOA the CC&R for the property doesn't dictate much but they do say that a 3 car garage is the minimum for this property.  The new house going up just above us is more like a small multi structure compound, it will have a 5 car garage.

So, how about the views?  This will be the view from what will be large windows looking to the west from the living room (imagine no dumpster).

Here's the view from the kitchen window.  There will be a post there but not the support beams that you see here.  And again, no dumpster (it moves with each pickup).

Here's the view from the deck.  One of the City's lakes will be visible from the deck.
