Amanda Lane is complete!

The home being constructed at 4965 Amanda Lane in Lumberton is complete!  This was a large, custom home for a local family of four.  They have a 10-acre property and some great neighbors.
 
The homeowners knew exactly what they wanted and they made great selections all along the way.  This is a picture of the sliding barn door that leads to the study.  There will be glass at the top that is not yet installed in this photo.
 
 
The kitchen is spacious and inviting with custom painted cabinets and lots of counter space.



 
The living room has a cathedral ceiling and amazing rock fireplace. 
The fireplace is double-sided and the other side faces the rear porch.


 
The split floor plan has a "kids'" bath with double vanities.

 
The laundry room has lots of extra storage for this busy family on the go.

The guest bath features a clear glass vessel sink and a gorgeous tile shower. 
 The shower doors have not yet been installed in this photo.

They selected a hardwood flooring with lots of character.  It has a very visible grain and lot of beautiful color variation.  Here it is installed in the master bedroom.
 (That's our 4-year-old, Evan, sneaking into the picture)

 
I didn't get a lot of great shots of the master bath, but I did get this one of the tub. 
Its a huge, 24-inch deep soaker tub.  Nice!

 
This project was challenging and exciting to work on. 
I hope the family will make great memories in this house and enjoy it for years to come!

Bear Creek

A new client of mine is building in the Bear Creek subdivision.  Their house will be one of the first.  Its a very unique place in that it has beautiful, large wooded lots.  They are all 3-5 acres in size and there are 85 in phase 1.   


The subdivision is located on 421 between Sour Lake and Lumberton and is in Hardin-Jefferson school district.  The entrance has two beautiful stone signs.
 
We did the dirt work this week and got the form boards set and under reams drilled.  If the weather allows, I hope to pour the foundation very soon.
