My Custom Home Build. All done. 061722
Is that the dance floor or is there a kitchen island in the future?Kitchen.
Open floor plan, so this is me standing about where the dining room table goes. Kitchen to the right. Looking into the formal living room and front door.

A couple more garage pics. I like the way the steps turned out. Our freezer and pellet ice maker will go on the left of the door. I have a metal rack that I'm going to try to put on the right of the door. The electrical panel is on the right side too.

lol. Plans had a small island there. It was stupid. Like 3 ft squared so it wouldn't get in the way of opening doors and walking paths. Our previous home and the rental that we are in now have less than optimal kitchen layouts. If more than one person is/was in it a fight almost breaks out! We won't have to worry about that here.

I totally could have skipped the commode. 😆 In my drinking days it would have been an obstacle.
Congratulations!
My Aunt has kinda sorta the same type thing and she went with a NICE portable butcher block kitchen cart she could move as needed … especially near her stove. That thing has drawers, pot hooks, etc that kept stuff handy as well as giving her work space. For gatherings she uses it as a buffet table/cart. But when she doesnt need it she can push it against the wall.
It kinda looks like this … https://www.houzz.com/products/colu...kitchen-island-prvw-vr~132462330?lid=97855658

Basement.
It's a walkout with one side completely exposed. We decided to go with LVP down there. My son has his own suite there. Our den/tv room is there. A spare bedroom and an "office" (since it doesn't have a window) are down there too. We did use oak stair treads to get down there though.
This is the tv room. Back center of this pic is where the stairs come down. The door by the stairs is a room under stair closet. My son's suite and mechanical room are off to the left. A 1/2 bath is to the right directly across the stairwell. And the two other rooms are to the right. That little tv will end up in the master bedroom and our big one will go on that wall. We needed something on site for the Direct Tv installer.
1/2 bath near the stairs.
More tv room.
Spare bedroom with the window. Office without. They aren't huge. They can comfortably fit a queen furniture set. The windowed room will end up being our weight room.
Hallway to my son's room and the mechanical room. Looking down towards the rooms first. Then looking back toward the tv room.
Mechanical room. One HVAC unit, the tankless water heater, three stage water filter, and the well pressure tank are in here so far.
My son's room and bathroom. He's getting a nice amish built queen bed with under bed storage and a pretty nifty headboard with storage, lights, and power. The foot board is a padded bench with more storage. That thing would have been awesome to have in the barracks! It's getting delivered tomorrow. He's got a nice large closet and attached bathroom. And a window for him to sneak in and out of when he gets to be a teenager. 😆
And here is the cool pattern on the LVP.
Done for now.

I suggested something like that to my wife. It's always an option for later on. I love butcher block tops.

The oak really popped with the clear poly on it. That floor and the screened in porch are my favorite features.
