More Sketchup 2/21/2007 10:36:00 PM

This one (SKP file) took about 1/10th as long as the other one. I guess I'm getting better. However, I couldn't (didn't take the time to) replicate the horrible carpet that is currently in the basement (which one may glimpse in all its glory here). Also note: I am missing the bathroom on this floor (didn't measure), the steps to the top floor, and obviously the garage/workshop/boiler room, which I also didn't measure. I may guesstimate them based on the top floor... We'll see.

I think I'm going to get rid of the furniture that was added to the first one so I'm starting with more of a clean slate, then see what I want to do with the house. We plan to close on May 1, so we'll have almost two full months of overlap between our current place and the new house - plenty of time to fix whatever we want before moving time. Also plenty of time to bring things over piece-by-piece so we don't have to do it all in one day. Because, as we all know, moving sucks.

Anyway, that's it for now. I might play around with the first (bottom) floor now, since that's definitely going to change - we're going to split it into two rooms - my office, and a family/TV room.

 Top floor - complete (as it's gonna get) 2/17/2007 11:11:00 AM

Well, here you go - the complete top floor of the house we're buying (more or less). Some measurements are a little off - probably due to my guesstimating how wide the interior walls are - but otherwise this is a pretty fair estimate of what we've got going for us.

I've also uploaded the SketchUp SKP file in case any of you are looking to check it out in 3-D. I fudged a little on the kitchen cabinets as well, but got most of the appliances and bathroom stuff in as well.

Next effort: the first (bottom) floor, sans garage.

Notes:
- Yes, the kitchen and dining room have different color wood floors - that's likely thanks to the recent kitchen remodel, and the current owners being lazy. Note that the rest of the top floor is carpeted... for now. We're exploring our possibilites in that regard. Some (much) of the carpet is in questionable shape and we're considering our options.
- Yes, the two bathrooms have different colored wood floors. I believe the master bath has the same wood floors as the kitchen. The other bath (with two sinks) has laminate flooring that will have to go pretty soon - it wasn't installed very well.
- Yes, the two bathrooms have blue paint and different-colored blue countertops. I'm doing my best to be KIND of accurate here. Note there are no mirrors, though. Didn't want to get too complicated.
- The big gap at the bottom (East) side of the model is the staircase. I downloaded a model of one that was close, but not close enough to what we have, so I decided to skip that.
