The front porch is almost done. Once it, the screened porch and the chimney are built, all major construction is done. And then its on to the finishing bits. We expect to have a structural inspection this week or next. Siding is being ordered as is the front door. Everything is a decision or several. Front door is black (inside and out), the sill is steel (not granite, less expensive and matches roof), it is a 3/4 panel glass door (clear glass), and the handle is satin nickel, modern style with a single plate and a basil lever on the inside. I think that wraps up all the key points in ordering a bloody door... :-)
Front porch is going to be gorgeous. I can totally picture sitting out here. The underside of the roof matches the style of our interior ceilings - white beadboard and wood rafters.
The supporting columns will eventually be clad in stone to match the chimney. We're weighing the options of real stone and cultured stone.
Here is the door handle we picked but on the wrong door and in the wrong finish.
