First Final Walkthrough

Yesterday we had our "First Final Walk-through".  The house turned out great and we are very satisfied with the builder.  No complaints at all.  When we were finished, we had a punch list but all the items were minor paint and stain details - nothing significant.  Today we signed papers which went surprisingly well.  It was one of the easiest signing we've experienced.  Isn't that sad we can compare this signing with others...plural!

Next week comes the "Last Final Walk-through" where we get the keys and then the move begins.  Sometime in between, there's this holiday we'll celebrate and we have to pack.  Busy times. 

Thanks to Mr. Bob, our Realtor, for helping us successfully navigate the California real estate market.  He was patient, observant, keen to our likes and dislikes, all wrapped together with a great sense of humor.  If anyone is in the market to purchase in the Roseville/Lincoln/Rocklin/Granite Bay area let us know and we'll be glad to give the referral.

Here are some photos from yesterday.

Have we mentioned that we love the carpet?

 

Looking over the balcony to the downstairs.  The stained spindles were perfect.  Going with white would have been a mistake.

These floors are just asking for a game of broom hockey!

View of the kitchen with lots of cabinets.  On the right are the two "morning cabinets" which will house the wedding china and heirloom pieces.  The shelves at the end of the island will be great for storing cookbooks.  I can just see all the great bowls of cereal that will be poured in this gourmet kitchen!
