New house

Post by Gendo »

I don't remember if I ever mentioned here that we're moving soon. Bought a bunch of land in Louisburg, NC; about 35 minutes from Raleigh where we are now. Building a new house there. Broke ground a couple weeks ago; there's now a foundation and all that. Closed on the land last July; been working on getting everything set to actually break ground since then. Fully custom design, going back and forth with an architect to design the plans. Full finished basement of which half will be the new theater room. Exciting stuff!

I hope you put some secret passages that you can only enter by pulling the correct book off of a bookshelf, or perhaps by pulling a blazing torch grafted to the wall. Why even custom make a house otherwise.

I'm happy for you, Gendo. I really am. And I'm glad you're excited.

It goes quick! Most people said 6th months from ground-breaking until move in, which seems about right so far. Had about 2 weeks of delays so far; still looks like late July for completion.
