The floor tiles are very large - 12"x24". The pebbles are just the shower floor (not sure how obvious that was. The rest of the floor is still covered, but will post a final pic when we get the vanities and lights in.
Me, too!!! Can't wait...

What do you mean bothered by it? Aesthetically or functionally? Yes, it's double-sided into the living room so we can enjoy the dying fire when we go to sleep.

After thinking about, it could just be the view your picture gives off.

I haven't checked this thread in a while and I'm really digging the stone you chose for the kitchen and the recycled glass in the bathroom. Deck looks awesome too! I can imagine you reading a book there... I'm sure you can't wait for the house to be finished!
Nice touch on the rock gift!

We are on the home stretch, finally. We have electricity and water. The well was just shocked, and we're having it tested this week. Hopefully we pass the first round.
The countertops and vanity tops went in yesterday. The floors are in, and they're sanding and finishing the rest of this week. Starting the kitchen backsplash Monday.
They'll probably power wash this week, and get the interior cleaned up and touched up next week. Assuming the well passes and the inspections pass, we are on target to make deadline...barely.
Holy cow, this has been hard. But so worth it - I can't wait!
The final grading is finished and the disrupted land has been strawed and seeded. Hoping to have grass grow this season so we don't have to put the silt fence back up.

Sample of finished product with oil-based poly to warm them up and bring out the grain. They'll complement the maple cabinets nicely.

Looks fantastic!
One question though...
Why the spaces around the vanities? I feel like that's just asking for shit to fall and get stuck all the way in there. Are the spaces going to be filled in with something? I can't tell if it's enough space to reach an arm back there but it would still be annoying IMO.

It is enough space to easily reach in and to vacuum, etc. Any minor annoyance caused by the space will be offset in spades by having our own separate spaces.
