This is our living room looking up at the ceiling. We wanted to share pictures so you could see the colors we chose for the house. On the walls is a light green and the ceiling is a dark green. The french doors lead out onto the back porch for a view of the lake.
Here is Jeff ready to greet our guests! Well, not really since he is decked out in his work clothes! This is a view of the foyer area from the front door. You can see through the fireplace.


This is the master bedroom wall color. It was an Olympic historic preservation color called 'Cincinnatian Hotel Carl Tan.'

The bathroom is a slightly darker shade of brown.


As you can see we chose to use a lot of color in the house. The red room is the dining room. The green is the hallway and the living room color. The yellow is Jeff's office.

This picture was taken from the back proch looking in at the living room. The chimney goes all the way up to the ceiling. The mason will be starting the rock work soon. The front door is located on the other side of the fireplace. The fireplace will be see through from both sides.


Here is a picture of the living room taken from the loft area. The floors were stained and had the first coat of poly this week. You can see we chose a light sage green color for the walls. On the ceiling we used a darker thyme green. We are so pleased with the end result of the colors. The darker green really brings the ceiling down to make the room feel cozy.

Here is a close-up of the siding on one of the dormers upstairs. This particular dormer is part of the honeymoon suite which will feature a mahogany four post bed, whirlpool tub, fireplace and an oversized private balcony.
All of our suites will be based on a different type of wood. We will start out with The Pine Suite and The Walnut Suite. The Walnut Suite will have a view of the lake and an antique cast iron soaking tub.
In the future when the final three rooms are complete, they will be The Mahogany Honeymoon Suite, The Oak Suite and The Bamboo Suite. Each will have access to the porch or private balconies.
