Just a quick post to share some photos of a house under construction in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. Thanks to the homeowners for these shots.
Here's the approach from the road & driveway. A steel canopy over the front door will be coming soon. The portion on the left (with siding) is the mud room and side entrance:
Looking back uphill at the house from the gorge side. Looks a bit naked without the patio that will get built in spring:
It's especially nice to see this 16-foot wide by 8-foot tall Weiland Liftslide door, installed and operational. Despite the incredible size, all it takes is a soft pull or push to glide this baby open in either direction:
The vertical-board siding is a tight-knot cedar, prefinished with a whitewash. We'll add one more coat before we're done, but I don't mind the knottiness at all:
