Closing tomorrow! Here are pics....

We are closing tomorrow and are so excited! The house is in Clayton, North Carolina, has 3,000 square feet and sits on 2.5 acres! I can't tell you how happy I am to finally be a homeowner......these pics were taken last week and as you can see, it wasn't 100% completed yet -- the little blue tape all over the walls is where the painters have to touch-up.....also, the porch railings weren't painted yet and the deck wasn't finished -- but you get the idea.....

Here is the front of the house -- the 2 trees on the right are coming down because I hate how it obstructs the house...

External Image

Here is a back view -- the deck isn't finished yet, but is getting there...

External Image


this is a view from the family room at the entryway and the dining room on the right

External Image

the dining room -- I love the colors and the trey ceiling...

External Image

our kitchen...

External Image

External Image

master bath -- love the tub!

External Image

the shower with a bench

External Image


the utility room for the washer/dryer...we loved all the cabinets and the clothes rod

External Image

the bonus room above the garage..

External Image

another view of bonus room

External Image


this is an additional 1,000 sq. ft of unfinished space on the second floor -- we'll probably add another bath and make a media room out of the rest, we're not sure...

External Image

this is a huge walk-in crawl space....we will concrete the floor and use as a big shed....i think.....

External Image

one of the backyard views...

External Image

another backyard view.....there's a creek a few acres back, but it was so hot that day that we didn't feel like walking back there -- we'll clear a trail at some point...


External Image


that's it for now......I cannot wait to move down there, we'll probably go in February......

Your house is GORGEOUS!! Love the hardwood floors and the bathroom tiles...and of course, the dining room colors! Chat Icon

Many congrats! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: I would rethink taking down the trees...right now they may be annoying, but maybe plant them further to the front because they provide great privacy and shade. And that's crucial in the summer with the heat! Chat Icon

you can't tell from the pic, but the trees are very tall and can't be replanted.....I may plant one smaller tree in place of the 2 big ugly ones......

Re: Closing tomorrow! Here are pics....

WOW what a great house - Oh man I wish My family and Danielles family would consider moving to NC...I would sell my house in a heart beat.

I would take out both trees too. How bought planting a Japanese Red Maple in the front...That would look really nice....

How big is the property? Love the colors, the floors, the open feeling....

Great Bonus room, Unfinished room, and Crawl space....

Where in NC is that?

Thanks, Scott! I love Japanese Red Maples! I have to make sure I can plant them there, I should be able to, I would think.......the property is 2.5 acres...
