Charlene - Sounds perfect and exciting! I know what you mean about the extra sq. footage. It worked out for extending the kitchen because I got a sewing room above, but by widening the room it was going to:
1. Mess with my planned layout along that exterior wall. We had limited room to go out. It would have pushed the garage past the property line.
2. I did not need anymore unfinished square footage.
I also turned the bathroom in the "front room" (my study) into a private bath. But it is also the guest bath. More private being closed off from the foyer.
I so wanted to add a half bath in the mud room, but we wanted one side for a bar area. I figured that I can just as easily walk down the hall to the bedroom, or as I spend a lot of time in my study, I will use that bathroom a bunch during the day.
R Jones - Thank you! I picked up the SW Accessible Beige at Lowe's this evening. Must have had ESP.
amandayerby - The brick is called Spanish Moss by Meridian Brick. White mortar (not the pre-mix) and quartz white sand.
I posted some new interior photos today on the Building forum. HERE
