Updated pics of the outside....

We have lots of landscaping to do so the outside will be significantly different by end of the year... But I could not resist a couple of snaps with some snow on the ground....














The front will have a circular driveway. The water feature under the stairs and to the left is almost there. We will have some plantings on both sides.
















Another look at the front. The motif of landscape will definitely be Japanese...














Still not sure what to do to the "high" side of the house. The balcony wont go in for a couple of years but we have talked about planting a row of weeping willows.













Another look at the hight side.














And here is the biggest challenge... The rear area which will be a combination of patio area, future pool and a creation of an outdoor room.
