The lot has been seeded and covered with hay, a city requirement. In the meantime, we are still working with Lemongrass and had a very productive meeting two weeks ago. The biggest change we made, and a huge cost saver, was attaching the garage. Here’s all the changes and the latest site plan.
· Move earth from the back of the lot forward, (take down Cedar) to lower the foundation slope
· Reverse the floor plan so Garage is on North side of lot.
· 6/12 roof pitch
· Add window in Dining area
· Garage moving forward so it’s even with kitchen window wall
· All brick, lapboard Hardi only on the front
· Reduce depth of back porch to 9 feet, and move house onto rear setback
· Remove wall between office and laundry creating one doorway.
· Put Door and Window in rear of garage, opening onto back yard with the door closer to the house.
· Let’s take one window out of the middle bedroom, keeping the one that aligns with the entry door.
·
We did not have to compromise our floor plan and we love the changes. We are cautiously optimistic that these changes will get us closer to our price range.
