This is what the new is shaping up like. The siding will be white cedar impressions. We did this in two weekends , the first weekend we tore out the 3 exterior 1st floor walls, reframing and sheathing, then installing the windows and door. The 2nd weekend we did the same on the second floor, but I also reframed the floor and laid a new deck inside.

You work wicked fast!! Looking nice.
