This is the results of all the research, time, and money. We found land we love and had an easy-to-maintain home built.<\/p>\n

This is the front. It was a cow field when we bought it. The dirt is really good and everything grows.<\/p>\n

The entire area is 28.5-feet by 22-feet. The living room side takes up about half of it.<\/p>\n

This end of the living room has a growing collection of guitars and other instruments.<\/p>\n

There are about twice as many as I thought.<\/p>\n

Living Room

I just keep pushing the living room furniture closer together so there is room for guitars.<\/p>\n

The table can extend to over 6-feet long and there is plenty of room for it.<\/p>\n

This is the dining room from the kitchen.<\/p>\n

The dog door goes to the back porch. There is a fenced in area of the yard for them.<\/p>\n

\"The
The Island of Australia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Kitchen<\/h2>\n

The only thing I would change in the kitchen is the size of the island. They framed it wrong twice and I had them tear it out and frame it again and again. The third time I decided I didn’t care. I should have cared. The island really is impractically big. It’s hard to keep the center dusted. It sticks out an additional 2-feet into the living room and made the walk space between where the sofa was going to go too narrow so I had to change the furniture arrangement. Annoying.<\/p>\n

\"The
Kitchen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I love the blue counter tops. There is plenty of counter space to keep my appliances out and still have enough counter to work on.<\/p>\n
