Pictured
here is an example similar to how our house will look when it is complete.
The floor plan we have chosen is
a "Camden" plan, elevation 6, 3BR/2BA
1430 sq. ft. & 2 car garage home. It will
be built by Windsor-Aughtry Company,
a local builder to the Greenville, SC area. Our house will be built
in the Pheasant Ridge subdivision. See the neighborhood
from our house by clicking here.
The picture above resembles a basic similarity to our house. The double windows on the right will be three instead, and that portion of the house will have a brick front. Our house will have a crawlspace (instead of built on slab). The outside colors will be "Cameo" for the siding (a sort of off-white) and green shutters and front door.
When it is finished, our house will comfortably shelter both of us, our two cats, and all the junk we have to squeeze into our current apartment!

The lot has been staked off
and soon the foundation will be started. We're trying to be patient,
but that apartment sure is getting small!
October 28th 1999
It's started!
They brought a backhoe in to dig the foundation, and the footings have
been poured. Bricks have been brought in to build the crawlspace
which should be started soon. Click here
to see pictures!
November 4th 1999
The crawlspace looks about
complete - most of the bricks have been laid and we're starting to see
the outline of the house. See the pictures!
November 15th 1999
We've got a floor now!
The crawlspace is now covered and they've started on the walls. Check
it out here.
November 16th 1999
It's amazing how fast things
can move. Most of our walls are up now! Take a look at the
pictures!
November 22nd 1999
We've almost got a roof!
Just before the weekend the trusses arrived, and now most of them have
been framed with the rest of the house. Take a look!
November 23rd 1999
Now it looks like a house.
Well almost... the roof is about done and the tar paper is on too.
