The driveway work has begun. It's going to be about 600' long, and will wind up a hill to the site of the house. Wes, our architect, made some alterations after Jason (who is building our driveway) discovered ledge that either needed to be blasted or filled over. We decided to fill and save the blasting for the house site. We also decided to curve the driveway a little more near the top of the hill. We're hoping the driveway will be done in a week and then we start the design work on the house with Wes.
When we bought the land, we didn't think much about the the driveway or pulling the lines (underground) up to the site. In fact, we didn't think about much other than how much we liked the lot. We're learning now.
We purchased some acres in South Kent, CT in June of 2006 and then decided about three years later to start the process to build our home on the land. We're still not sure where this is all going, but we'll push forward and see what happens.
Architect
One of our first decisions was to ask Wes Wyrick to design our home. We're just beginning the process, but we know we've made a great choice. He's patient, creative, has a great sense of humor and we love our neighbors home, which he designed.
