Here’s a handful of shots from a house I completed almost two years ago. It took my client and friend about 18 months to sell. Beautiful house and, in my opinion, well worth the original asking price, but it just hit that weird timing with interest rates and the slowdown we started to see toward the end of 2024 here in the U.S.
It’s approximately 5,200 square feet finished, with another roughly 900 square feet over the garage that could be finished.
I’ll pull together some other pictures at some point. I posted this house a while back in one of the threads, but it’s a pretty cool project. I’ve known this particular client for 21 years, and this was the fourth house I’ve built for him. We’re actually working on getting another one going on the adjacent property he owns, which is approximately six acres. This one sits on about eight acres.
Really great guy and a great client. He enjoys the process and is very creative. We’ll typically use an designer, but he and I tend to tweak things ourselves as we go. I’ve always enjoyed working on projects with him. So much so that he always gets the friends-and-family discount on my fees. At least on the last two, lol.

Thanks! I have some better pictures somewhere, but I need to get better at putting things into folders…

I’m a big fan of hex floor tiles for smaller baths. We did it in the bath that serves as the powder in our own home.
Horrible pic lol. It’s actually different-colored marble, but in this picture it looks like linoleum.
