Behind our Coldwell Banker sign is an old Granite Hitching post where horses use to be tied to back in the 1700's. This hitching post is still standing (as a token of a by-gone era) and has a few knotches in it. These hitching posts were once a means of securing one's transportation (the horses) but now are admired by the few who are still nostalgic for past history.
We're planning on preserving this historic structure and leaving it intact on the property. After all "we must preserve history today for tomorrow".
We looked up the history of the hitching post but didn't find much. Here are some articles we found online:
ICYNENE!
Yes folks we're done insulating. Framing inspections passed on Monday and by Tuesday we were insulating. This morning the Icynene crew from InsulPro & our Insulation crew came by to finish super insulating the house.
Check it out:
Once the firestopping was completed and the framing inspections passed we hit the ground running.
The walls got blown in Cellulose insulation, the ceilings got Icynene and the bathroom walls even got insulated for noise control.
Tomorrow insulation inspections from the town and GDS Associates for our Energy Star certificate and off we go to blueboard & plaster.
In the meantime, our Plumber Bill is working hard to get all his work complete before he heads off to Hawaii for a much deserved vacation. (Yes we are jealous but we've got a mission!). He's been slaving away in the basement finishing up the PEX plumbing and installing the NAVIEN tankless water heater which by the way is super energy efficient at 98% Efficiency. Check out Bill's work below:
The back side of the house is coming along nicely as well. We've already started building the large deck off the family room and kitchen and that should be completed later this week weather permitting.
(the two mountains of brick you see here are from the 6 fireplaces that the house had. Most of this brick is being reused to build the patio in the back yard).
Next stop: Blueboard / Plaster, Painting, Floors, Kitchen Cabinets & finishing touches and of course our brick patio. We're getting closer to our open house.
Until next time!
