construction of our centreville townhouse

Adam and I were so excited to be able to pick all of the options in our new townhouse. While it was fun picking each fixture, finish, style, brand, it was also very difficult. There was a lot of temptation to pick high-end stuff but we had to balance our needs with our wants.

In the picture above you're looking from the master bedroom into the master bathroom. I was so excited to have a master bathroom with windows and view of nothing but woods. I've always like to have fresh air in the bathroom while taking a shower.


Adam filmed a lot of the inspections just to be on the safe side. We've heard some horror stories about builders not caring about the quality of their work and hiding defects or mistakes with drywall.

The builder was Winchester Homes. I have to admit, they did a very good job of staying on schedule. The promised us a the first week of October and that was when they actually delivered it. The market is very hot right now so it helps them to stay on schedule so that they could move on to building other houses.

We went by the sales office last week and I could not believe the line of people waiting to by these townhouses! People are actually spending the night on the side walk outside just to be the first one there when the sales office opens in the morning.

This is the master bedroom. The little room on the right is the walk-in closet....it's a very small walk in closet so I'm not looking forward to sharing it with Adam.


We bought our first house four years ago and I can't believe we're already buying our second house. What's more, I never thought I'd have a brand new house. Just imagine, everything is brand new, nothing is broken, everything is under warranty, and everything is just our style...oh the excitement.

This is the garage looking out into the driveway. It's a two car garage with decent space with a very large drive way. Adam and I counted and if you include the garage spaces, you can actually fit 6 or 7 cars in our driveway.


Here's the front of the house with no bricks yet.


Here is the house all bricked up. The builder selected the type and style of the bricks. I guess they wanted to stay with a specific pattern of bricks across the neighborhood. We did get to select the color of the door and the shutters.


Getting very close to move in!
