6/19 - Insulation in...Up close and personal neighbors

They have begun construction on our neighbor's home.  They are located on the right of our home (when facing the house).  Albeit a large community, they maximize the use of the land to build as many homes as possible.  Which for us is not a huge issue, because we did not want a lot of land.  In looking at the plan for our cul de sac, we knew the home to our right was going to be close to us.  We just didn't want anyone behind us.  But it's hard to get a good feel for the space when looking at the plan.  We are now able to get a sense of how close they are going to be.  These neighbors must despise land more than we do because their yard is going to be very small.

Family Room and I can't wait to hear that surround sound in there:-)

Fortunately their house is being built at an angle away from our house, so we won't be staring directly at their house from our bedroom, family room or deck.

  1. That sound system is going to be raucous! :-)

    I like the style of the house and how the gables cut in. It really shows nicely now.

  2. Looking good! It looks like your deck with be pretty private. I wanted surround sound, but didn't want to pay Guardian for it!

    1. Thanks! Yeah we think based on how they are angling our neighbors house away from ours, we should be fairly secluded...just the way we want it :-)

  3. Wow, you place is really going up quickly! I splurged for the surround sound, too... I can't wait to hear what it sounds like. It looks like your place is coming along nicely. I like the elevation you chose, as well. Good luck on the rest of the project!
