    10/15 mins from Monaco within a natural park...

    P.S. Those are old pictures...a lot a works have been done since and many are still currently in progress (eg. many stone walls were built in the garden's terracing, swimming pool is being redone, drive-in will be redone, garage as well etc.). More recent pics can be found in this other thread- http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=196900. Once the remaining works are done the house should go on the market :(

    Well I know it's not much compared to most of them here, but this is our new house. We were living in a townhouse before this. We (she) built it last fall (while I was in Army basic training, haha) and moved in Dec 20th, the day I got home for Christmas exodus. Its about the 12th house in the neighborhood, which is planned for over 100. All lots are between 0.5-0.75 acre. One of our own fchatters SweetSpotAV installed my home theater ( thanks John!) As you can see the backyard is a mess right now. The work trailer for the pool people is on the left in that first pic. That pic is a couple of weeks old, they just poured the concrete decking. Just waiting on the vinyl liner to come in.

    We'll have been married for 3 years in Dec and we're just taking things one step at a time. Didn't want a huge house, but with 4bd it's big enough for the 2 rugrats we want eventually.

    1928 Sears catalog bungalow I got in 92 as a total disaster - cat pee, 60 years of cigarettes and not a stitch of insulation. Designed the addition to the left about 8 years ago when we started having kids.

    About 1.5 miles south of the Lincoln Memorial - great old neighborhood in Arlington, VA.

    Hey thanks for all the positives. I kinda felt strange posting our little place, what with all of the huge places already in this thread. Pool is being filled this weekend and Monday will be complete. Just in time for the cold front!

    #1 The view with the boat in it, is from the front yard at our family lake house in Michigan.

    The rest are basically the view from the neighbors place. They have been family freinds for 60 years.

    The fancy one, is a super-lo-resolution artsy shot that my (professional pho-tog...) relative took at sunset, from the same place.

    The last is the view back towards our house from the lake, that I took from a kayak (obviously)...

    Our old house has been in the family for 90 years or so. The house is OK, but the lake is amazing. 20 miles long and 3 miles wide.

    On post 160 of this thread, I posted a couple of pics of my 1928 bungalow and the addition (on the left of the pics).

    Here are a few interior shots of the great room in the downstairs portion of the addition. It is obviously still in progress, but we cleaned it up a little for Christmas and I took these shots. The old part of the house has the dining room in it, which looks down into the new great room. the arts-and-crafts columns are design cues obviously taken from the original front porch columns of the bungalow. The north 1/3 of the room is tented off; we're still making sawdust in there. We just started making the shelves that will fit against the far wall, in between each of the columns. Floor goes last. Part of the reason that the room is so large is that my 9' concert grand piano (living at my parents' house) needs the space to sound right.

    the columns are cherry and maple, the wainscoating maple with a big cherry shelf/cap, the mantle is curved aluminum billet w/ a rusted steel brace on the one side. The vaults on eiher side of the big glulam beams are maple veneer ply w/ cherry ribs at the panel joints - cove lighting at the bottom of the vaults. The floor will be 4" brazilian cherry.

    The newell posts are from 1880, from the house that my dad grew up in northern New Mexico. It was a big Richardsonian Romanesque house that my grandparents lost to eminent domain in 1955. About 10 years ago, my late grandmother found out that a local electrician had removed them from the house right before it was torn down and I bought them from his widow in 1999 - the newell posts had been in his barn since 1955!!! They were in amazingly good condition as you can see - we had to refrabricate one of the tops but otherwise only needed to sand and re-coat.

    I'm particularly proud of this space since my dad and I have built every speck of it. High-end millwork has been his hobby for about 60 years. None of the work is rocket scinece, but knowing the millwork tricks, having the right tools and being an absolute perfectionist is what makes a room like this come together. Oh, and lots of time. I pulled the permit for this addition a week after my oldest son was born; and he just turned 7!! I'll post more shots when we are completely done.

    Absolutely beautiful, I love that style. I have a Stickley leather chair that would look perfect next to your fireplace.
    enjoy

    Bryan -
    I'm liking the way you're combining A&C with contemporary (the steel railings).
    Also noted the b&w rug under the table; I just specced one very similar for a project in Vancouver, BC. Is it a Liza Phillips?
