New Homesite

We've found a nice wooded lot to build our new house. We are working with John Witt of Witt Construction. They are a design/build firm with national design awards and John is personally drawing our new home.

The house will be built to take advantage of some views of Vermont to the southeast. Our thoughts are that we'll use local materials throughout the house: slate, birch flooring, cedar shakes, local stone, slate and danby marble countertops. There is also a granite called "fireblossom", that is quarried near Gore Mtn. The red bursts are garnet and the surrounding dark areas are hornblende.

Let's wait for the pricelists for all of this shall we?
