East side of house... the large square window is the kitchen, the protruding part to the left will be the chimney, with two casement windows flanking it.
Back of the house... the large doorway leads out from the dining room. I really wanted French doors here, but this wasn't practical because of the large size of our dining table (the doors would not clear the table when opened). So we compromised and will have sliding French doors. I'd never heard of them before and they aren't exactly old-fashioned, but I know they'll work out great. The small door opens from the back of the garage. Mitch added this himself as a convenience. The space created by the "L" shape of this end of the house will be our patio. By the way, this photo was taken from atop the actual "hill" with the "persimmons" on it!
The west side of the house... of course the two big openings are for the garage. The small window is to mine and Mitch's bathroom and the large doorway leads from our bedroom to what will I hope someday will be an enclosed courtyard to relax in. This doorway will house a set of 48" French doors.
Front of house!! The middle opening is of course our front door which will be topped by a transom to bring it to the height of the four windows. The porch is a generous 8 feet deep... lotsa room for our porch swing.
