New Visit & Model Pics...

Hi there!

Now that we know what our new [town]home will look like, we took a visit to the community to ask a few questions on standards before our flooring and wiring meetings in the upcoming weeks.  In this model you have the option of things like a Roman shower or soaking tub with regular shower.  There are other options that we need to decide because either they can't be easily done afterwards or the cost is about the same (5-burner stove, back splash, lights, etc.).  We were able to get all questions answered and we are ready to go pick out some 'stuff'!  LOL

Our next decision will be whether we want a deck now or pay for it to be done later.  We will get some quotes in the next week or so and decide.

There are two models available to view...one is more contemporary and the other more traditional.  Based on our current selections, it seems like we are mixing the two.  We have selected the 10ft bump out which opens up the space even more.  Some of the other options we have already selected are noted below in the pictures.  Overall, very nice use of space and I can't wait to get in and start decorating!

What I learned today:


  • This month, they are offering $10K on options
  • The garage doors are now updated with a glass decoration at the top (sorry I am not sure of the technical term)
  • Our of seven homes in our row, 2 are sold and 1 more soon to be sold (NV will not build until 95% of the row is sold)...we knew about their rule before today but I wanted to see if anymore had been sold
  • The neighbors have been really nice and helpful!!!  
  • I did not see any individual mailboxes...only the community mailboxes

I have pictures of the model if you have never seen an Andrew Carnegie.  I will also update with our options once we have them in black ink.
If you have any questions about the initial phase, just let me know.  I have been learning a lot since this is our first build so I could go on for days...but I will spare you!

xoxo


They no longer offer the fireplace as pictured here in the rec room.  Instead, it is located in the great room as a floating fireplace
