Additions - Drawings

I've been working on designing, drawing, and modeling our house additions. I've also been calling contractors in order to get estimates so that we can hopefully get a loan and pay contractors to do our additions for us. 

Here's what our house looks like right now.

Floorplan of the Additions
The additions include enclosing the carport for an office space and a guest bedroom, a third bedroom in the SE corner of the house, a covered porch on the north side of the house, and an exterior utility closet for a boiler that will supply hot water plumbing fixtures and for radiant floor heating.

Here's a view of the NE corner of the house. You can see the porch and the 3rd bedroom.

Here's a view of the NW corner of the house. You can see the porch and the enclosed carport.

Here's a view of the SW corner of the house. You can see the carport addition, the utility closet, and the 3rd bedroom.

I'm really excited about the covered porch. I really think it'll make the north side of the house look like the  front of a house. And it'll give us the opportunity to reside the front of the house, too. We will likely move the electric meter, the cable, and the phone runs to the east side of the house when we do the porch. That will be a nice aesthetic upgrade.
