Mountain Cottage Bathroom Update

Thought I'd give everyone an update of the progress of the mountain cottage en suite bathroom.
If you recall, I put together an inspiration board way back in the planning stage. Most of the fixtures have been purchased. The only thing different are the lights and the Shaker door has a horizontal rail.

As of Sept 30th, we're  happy to say that Mr. DIY has finished all the framing, rough electrical, rough plumbing and insulation and has passed all of those inspections.

The bathroom currently looks like this:

The red door used to be the front entry door on the porch.

Just so you understand the layout, I've included a top view

Here are a couple of perspective renderings.

Now that all the inspections have been passed, Mr. DIY can start on finishing work: the flooring, drywall, install 3 doors, the vanity, toilet, lighting, heater, tile on the bath surround. Of course, that will be after Christmas and New Years....There's lots of Fall cleanup and chores to do. 

And, of course, I'm looking ahead to having the whole front third of the mountain cottage plan. The old bathroom will now become the laundry room and a new closet will be built in the foyer. This house will finally have the storage it needs. I'm not sure how the previous owners could live here full time with no linen closets and very little storage.

We're also planning on having some concrete work done...

The new siding has been Zinssered and painted to match the house. One of these days, we'll choose a new color and repaint the whole cottage...and plant some new landscaping.

Now you're up to date on the Mountain Cottage bathroom project.
Thanks for stopping by,
