What kind of landscaping you guys looking to do in the yards?
A riding motor would be a must have for a sloped side yard with that much footage.

Looks like they wrapped up the siding yesterday. Everything looks good with our electrical, so sheet rock will go up next week!

Sheetrock is going in. Looks like it will be roughly a 12 day project!

Beautiful home! Congratulations on the new build, and I'm sure I speak for the forum when I say that we're all looking forward to seeing images of the M4 in your new garage.

Nice house. Congrats. I would have personally opted for brick because siding cheapens the look somewhat.

About 1/4 of the front will be bricked up. We actually paid extra to completely wrap in brick the post in front of our main door entrance. Also, siding and trim still need to be painted. Give the builder some time man

We are using Alderwood Stacked Stone on the exterior. Looks very natural. It's about $25/SF so we had to be strategic with cost. Us M4 owners are living check to check j/k

That looks great. My favorite type of brick.

Thumbs up

Love your house build, M4 and Portland. I visited Portland earlier this year and absolutely loved all the parks, food and metro system set up in downtown. People were friendly and great too.

Keep the photos coming.

I can't take all the credit for the 4 car garage. It just so happened during the design process that we stretched the width of the home about 3 feet so it would fit the lot which eventually led to double door garage doors. I didn't even know this until our final drafts were done months later. Was a great surprise.

I know we are all worried about how low the M3/M4 is so I decided to post how the driveway will come in and the angle I'll be taking.

brick can be VERY expensive in certain parts of the country.

In the Midwest you got siding on a new home and a " brick allotment" which usually amounts to an equivalent of one side of the house. you can do all of one side or half height front and rear, or 1/4 height all the way around. Additional brick at $8 per square foot.


Homes in the south like TX come with brick and a full sprinkler system and wood fence included.

looks like a wonderful home....

The driveway is not * horrible.* but not great. I had a flat driveway in my first home.. didn't realize how awesome it was and when it came to buying my second home I compromised and it had a driveway similar to your slope.. on more than one occasion while changing wheels.. a wheel ended up heading out of the drive and down the slope to the street....

I dealt with it for 18 years..... and happily now have a home with a flat driveway again!
