My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Stone in water

14 years ago
Does the stone in the water lead somewhere, or is it just for display?

    Yes the wine cellar does actually have a door. There is a motion sensor, that turns off the waterfall when you step on the stones as well as a button, so you definitely won't get soaked going into the wine cellar!
    Thanks.

      The stones are just for display, except for right under the bridge, the stones are used to create a walkway from the house to a hidden wine cellar on the other side of the moat.

      Does the wine cellar have a door? Is there a button to turn off the waterfall so you don't get soaked going to the secret wine cave?

      Absolutely incredible idea! Any alligators in the moat to guard the wine cellar?

      I want this at my house.

      But where is the draw bridge? And are there sharks with laser beams or just crocodiles? Seriously, I love it.
