An empty field beckons. Only Joe Paul Designs knows what awaits. |
|

|
|
The owner approaches with plans in hand. Where shall we dig? Joe Paul Designs helped with that crucial decision. |
|

|
|
We can start by whacking away at this mass of roots. |
|

|
|
Aha! A proverbial "stake in the ground." |
|

|
|
Looking back along the very long drive (they'd better buy a snowplow) gives a rustic and idyllic feeling. |
|

|
A glance at the pond. Grading is underway for the foundation dig. Placement of the house is designed to take advantage of the pond view. |
|

|
|
Here, the foundataion is going in. Note the unique patterned concrete assembly. |
|

|
Here's another view of the foundation wall. |

|
Another look at the pond indicates some dirt had to be moved over that way for temporary storage. |
|

|
| Okay, the house is well underway. Joe Paul Designs suggested an English country manor style to create height and drama. |
|

|
| The three story house will include two first floor master suites. One could accomodate an aging parent if need be. |
|

|
| This comprehensive design plan takes into account how the house will be used and how the property will be enjoyed. |
|

|
| Wait till you see the Romeo and Juliet balcony that will grace the front of the house. |
|

|
| The home owners used the builder of their choice. Joe Paul Designs checks on the work often. |
|

|
| Believe it or not, we're already out buying furniture! That's because the total design is done at the start making it easy to take advantage of sales throughout the process. |

We'll keep you updated as this amazing dream home progresses. |
