Deck Planning

Nothing happening at the site this weekend, so I spent some time staking and figuring out how our tree house (the 3 story deck) will sit on the property in relation to the trees.  We decided against a concrete patio for the basement walk out because there would be a 4 foot drop at the back of the patio.  So instead, it will be a framed deck, with a 1st floor framed deck covering it, and a partial 2nd floor deck for our master bedroom walk out.

I wanted the deck close to the trees to get that tree house feel, and looks like I will get it :)  Hopefully I won't have to take any more down.


And as a reminder, this is how the back of the house plans look.  Although given the changes to not have a concrete patio, we will just use hardi plank siding (no brick in the back) and the columns will just be PT lumber (not brick).
