Grading & Site Clearing

We got a call from our builder that site grading would happen in a week or so... It started the next morning!!  After a few days, we have a driveway cut in!! John and his chain saw - (8/19/17) The boys walking down the new driveway Major changes!! (8/23/17)

The Next Chapter!

When John and I moved to Asheville, we looked for and bought a house that was familiar to us. 11 years later, we have decided to venture into the unfamiliar.  Here is a rundown what's happened so far in 2017: -In January, we started the search for land. -On February 17th, we were under contract on 4.33 acres of vacant land. -On April 17th, we closed on the property. -On May 10th, our house was listed FSBO. -On June 4th, we had an offer presented, and we were under contract the next day. -On July 22nd, we moved into a 2-bedroom apartment. -On July 31st, our house sale was completed. It sounds concise, but it's been a whirlwind, to say the least.  In the midst of all that chaos, was finding a builder and deciding on a house plan.  After countless website clicks and searches, we found the one:  Modern Farmhouse !  Now, the real fun begins!
