And they have installed most of those windows. Kitchen is still missing due to the opening being too low so some adjustments have to be made and one of the windows in the lower level (hidden in this photo) does not fit the opening. I haven’t found out if the opening was framed wrong or it the window shipped was incorrect. Either way a quick adjustment to the frame opening will allow the window to fit.

After careful consideration we opted for the framers suggestion to eliminate the full wall surrounding the staircase and make it a half-wall.  Not only will the new wall allow more light into the stairway it also make the kitchen seem that much larger.

A couple of views from the lower level.  The first is one of the bedrooms followed by a storage room with access to the exterior.  Second photo is the entrance to the workout area that is prepped for a bathroom in the corner.
