Extreme home makeover

So we have finally begun the project we waited almost two years to start: the tearing down of the present structure at 74 Oak Street and construction of a new house. We are going from the 1200 square foot, 4 bedroom, 1 (tiny) bath Cape you see here...

...to the Craftsman style home you see here. Just one more bedroom, but 2-1/2 more baths, and a lot more space for a growing family.

We are very excited. We love the location. It is right across the street from the elementary school Jocelyn and Ian will attend, with a beautiful park and playing fields, and within easy walking distance to the shops at Linden Square in Wellesley. We also feel we have a great lot with ample space for play and entertaining.

We hope to be able to post regular updates on our progress. If all goes well, we should be able to move in early next summer!
