OMG the house looks amazing!!! I just spent the last 20 minutes or so reading through your blog and watching the video!
Love what you are planning to do with it. I wish we had thought of $35 type upgrades which look as amazing as yours does! Our only 'claim' to valuable an upgrade was outdoor taps. We've definitely gone function over form for now as we figure we can do the form later. I'm jealous you have done so much re landscaping too. those fruit trees look great. I plan to get a fruit orchard going with some chickens nearby (to pick up all the fallen fruit and subsequent flies!) sometime after our build... we don't need a landscape plan for DA but will need one for our overall house plan...
