The vision

We have our stamped, modified plans, so we can apply for our building permit! Now to figure out the cubic feet of the house for box 10a....

Here is the final isometric view.




The revised basement plan now has space for mechanical systems and has been rearranged to make dealing with the foundation for the masonry heater easier.



Slight changes on the main floor, and no change to the loft



And a new treat - elevation drawings!

West - this is the side facing the street, and has the main entrance to the house. The driveway will lead up to it. Ignore the egress window on the lower northwest corner - that was removed from the plans in the revisions, but didn't get removed from this view.



South - this faces into the deepest portion of our land, and will provide some passive solar heating (look at all the windows!).



East - this faces toward the back of the lot. The left window is in the study/guestroom, the right window is across from the toilet.



North - the non-solar side of the house. The windows present are for daylighting. The tall first floor window is between the bathroom and the stairs, to provide some extra light to a dark area. The door will eventually open onto a screened porch back there. For now, it will have a landing and stairs.



Now back to that building permit application...
