| Our new
home is in a small community of about 106 home sites off US Highway 1 outside
of St. Augustine, Florida. The community is known as Moses Creek
Estates.
We purchased
the first home site in Phase II of the project. Our lot is .35 acres
and sits on a small lake in the middle of a Pine Forest. Many of
the pictures on here have been taken by my builder's daughter.. A very
special "Thanks
to Kasey" The pictures
are great.
The back of
our new home faces south so we will have sun on our pool all year long.
In November
of 2003 Jane and I went on a week vacation to St. Augustine Beach, Florida.
We wanted to see what was available in the area so we went for a ride and
were going south on US 1 when we saw a sign saying 1/3 acre lots available.
We pulled in and all 60 lots in Phase 2 were available. We were very
lucky and picked the one we wanted. We could only put a deposit on the
site we selected and could not close till Feb. 2004 since the site had
not received a final approval from the county till then.
Once we
purchased our lot I started to design our dream house. Maybe it was
my dream house but we both discussed it and the size of the rooms as well
as the configureation of the rooms. Well it was June of 2004 and
we turned our plan over to our builder Ricky Cooper. He had blue
prints made up and again we discussed them, made changes, and in November
we had a finished product.
Along came
February 2005 and the house was started and on Octobert 21, 2005 we moved
in.
Below is
a picture from this year.
