It has been a total of 110 weeks since we started this job. Except for some cleaning and some painters touch ups the job is done and the certificate of occupancy has been issued. I will put a video of the start to finish up later when I get the time to put it together.
For those of you that haven't followed along- This house was done using a new method of construction using a product called AMVIC. (Google now) Lol. The exterior walls are all solid concrete from the footings to the roof.
Its beautiful...can I move in?
ReplyDeleteWOW it is beautiful Mac.....too much house for me though....there are a LOT of houses here in Ky using AMVIC, suppose to be quicker and easier ......I'll leave that up to the pros....
ReplyDeleteI don't know about quicker Sue. We started this project almost 2 years ago to the month.I have never worked on a residential home that took that long in the 30 years that I have been working construction. I have worked on Assisted living complexes with over 300 apartment type units in them and start to finish usually took under a year. Of course I had really good sized crews of 40 plus men on those types of jobs.
ReplyDeleteThese are just fantastic, Mac. I have never seen a house even close to this in my life. Did you say the owner designed it? I would love to know what all those nooks and crannies are to be used for. (Maybe you can pose as a termite inspector and get some good shots of it furnished after they move in) LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a house, Mac. I love that it's right on the water with lots of trees.
ReplyDeleteNice and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteWow! Impressive!
ReplyDeleteJudy, the home owner had asked the guys clearing the lot for building to take down a few trees that he wanted down. In the lake was a kayaker with a camera. Turned out that he worked for the EPA. He shut down the job for 2 months until a deal was worked out to replace the trees. A couple of shrubs were planted to replace the tall white pines that had been taken down.
ReplyDeleteHow much acreage does it have Mac? I am guessing the easier the style the quicker the house?
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely home
ReplyDeletelove that floor
ReplyDeleteOne might think, with a house that grand, there would be indoor plumbing. ;-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome Photos Mac and a Great Looking House Is it your New home or you just built it Looks Great !!!..I Love the House !!
ReplyDeleteBoy that took some money to build that place. I would like to see what type of furnishing's are going to go into it. Personally if I had money I would not ever want a house like this one. Give me simple and old. lol
ReplyDeleteRoflmao Suzi......I was thinking that too when I was looking at the pics.......
ReplyDeleteBeautiful house, but any more I don't think I want a big house...all I keep thinking is all of that dusting,lol,lol.....(okay I will take the house but include a maid!)
