1rst Floor Plans

The first floor is the heart of the entertaining zone....The front windows are ten feet tall. They open into a living room that is open to the second floor loft....There is a low concrete bench on the south side of the house..(We are getting one of those super efficient Danish stoves from Scan or Rais to sit on the bench.) The Dining Room will be flanked by french doors on the north and south side..The kitchen will also have windows on both the north and south side......Down the hallway you will find a half bath, the laundry area, a coat closet, and the garage....

We joke that the primary reason we are building this house is so that Jeff has a place to finally put together the 1960 Alfa Romeo Convertible that has been dis-assembled for the past 20 years....

He better, or Mike is going to start selling Alfa parts on E-Bay...

Out of the gutter and into the cold..

Although the stucco guys completed their job a couple of weeks ago, some minor cracks developed in 3 areas and they have come back to patch them up..... Having the scaffold up for the stucco guys allowed our gutter guy to hang the final piece.... On Wednesday of this week the guys from Airsmiths installed the air conditioning condenser...If you're wondering if that is the American Standard Allegiance 14 Super Efficiency Condenser, you would be right! It is made in Texas in the same factory that Trane air conditioners are made at. http://www.americanstandardair.com/Products.asp?Section=homeOwners&ProductID=7&CategoryID=16&SuperCategoryID=1

Disaster averted....One step closer

Yesterday the City Utilities Dept. sent out the guy that is Mr. Sewer for all of East Sac....He had an old map of our part of town that showed the water and sewer lines running diagonally across our lot!!! After one quick look at the manhole in the front of the lot and the manhole in the alley, it was easy to see that the sewer line ran parallel and well within the 20 foot easement....excellent, but what about water? Today the Utilities Department sent out the guy that is Mr. Water for all of East Sac...he had one of those retro 1970's-esq Fu Man Chu mustaches, not that I noticed.... Anyway, he brought all sorts of fancy pipe detection equipment and in no time at all he found the water pipe....It was also well within the easement and does not run under house site....phew... Pat at the City Utilities Department just called, she had that perky and cheerful voice that most people get when they can tell you that a problem has been averted, she used that voice when she told me ...
