Option Changes and Exterior Colors

We went to the community today and talked to our SR and made several changes to our option list.  We also looked at the exterior samples that would be available to us and made a few more decisions about colors.  The stone we originally wanted will not be available to us :( so we have to change that.  I am happy with the changes that we have made though.

Option Changes

Removed Options:
  • Closet Under Basement Steps (we will add it ourselves later)
  • Gas Stove Hookup
  • Removed 1 Extra Outlet from the Garage
  • Removed Dedicated Circuit Outlet in Storage Area of Basement
Changed Options:
  • Changed the Master Bathroom Vanity to Maple Cognac Cabinets (-$75)
  • Changed Interior Door Handles to Antique Bronze ($150)
  • Changed Fireplace to Floor to Ceiling Stone ($2,200)
  • Changed Light Fixtures Throughout to Antique Bronze ($0 Yay!)
Added Options:
  • Garage Door Opener Pre-Wiring ($75)
  • 10' x 12' Deck ($2,395)
  • Switched Receptacle in Tray Ceiling in Master Bedroom (for future rope lighting above crown) ($110)
  • Blower and Remote for Fireplace ($350)
  • 2 Recessed Lights over Fireplace ($300)
  • Ceiling Fan Rough-In ($225)
Updated Visuals of our Upcoming Home:
Stone Fireplace and Recessed Lights
Steves & Sons Decorative Glass Pantry Unfinished Pine Interior Door Slab
We are going to make this our pantry door and paint it white
($170 at Home Depot)
This is the what our Master Bathroom Vanity will look like except the counter top will be different 
Our Colors: The stone will be on the front, the brick on the left will be on the bottom of the sides and back of the home, the shutters will be the small blurry sample up there (grey), the door is the muted black sample at the bottom, the upper level will all be the light green 2nd from the top in the back, the shake above the garage door and in the eaves will be the tan 3rd from the bottom in the front; the trim, windows, and garage door will be in white.
This is the colors of our Kitchen.  We however will not have the morning room to the left or the gourmet island.  We will have a center island with bar stool seating.  We will have the recessed lights, 42" cabinets, crown mold and stainless appliances shown here.  We have not chosen our flooring yet.

One of the ponds in the community, this is the largest and is next to club house (we would pass it on our walk to the club house)
Side Note:  Our sales rep gave me the HOA contact information so that we can call to get our club house access fobs.  This will allow us to start using the club house and pool now instead of waiting for construction to be completed in the winter when the pool is closed.  :)

    1. Thank you Lauren! We are super excited as this is our first build. I believe we actually saw you guys at the model home a couple of weeks ago. We came in with our two kids to sign off our flooring selections and I believe you were meeting with Sherri. She commented after you left that the couple that just left were also building an elevation L.
      Congrats and good luck to you and your husband as well!
