OMGosh girl!! Looking good! Great selections!! LOOOOOOOOOOOVE THEM!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd look at you on that lot!! You go girl!! Is this just down from the model or on the road behind it?
I do love your selections! Great taste! Can't wait to see them IN your house!! =)
BTW... we started out with Penn. stone and then changed to the Kentucky. Go down to my street. Look at my stone (ken.) and then 2 houses down there is house, my house, with the same elevation but front garage. It has Penn. Stone. The Stone on the Dorsey next to the model is also Kentucky I think. May help to see them on other houses.
ReplyDeleteGL!! Both are great colors! Won't be an easy choice!! Ask to if they can go through some of the color schemes with you for both stones. May help to narrow it down. Let us know what you decide.
Also...you said Elev. B...does that mean you changed lots? I thought you had to go Cottage to get the porch?
Thx!! I am indecisive so this was a process...and still is. I still have to figure out the study, floors and materials and colors for the outside but I love the decisions I've made so far. My lot is down the street from the model. In fact they are building a Verona to my left and a Ravena is across the street from it. I think there is a Dorsey Hall being built to the left of the Ravena.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the info on Kentucky vs Penn. I am leaning towards Kentucky now even though they are both great. But now its between partial stone and full brick. Full brick is a little less expensive than partial stone and I think it would look good on the Verona. I have a week to decide on that one :s
I didn't change lots I decided to go without the porch. I really liked BD's suggestion that I could add it later if i wanted to. When I started thinking abt the type of furniture I have and will be buying it didn't really go with the cottage theme. Id done the same thing in the kitchen originally...not taking into consideration the type of furniture is be putting around it. Once I did that some of the decisions became easier.
Hope you are having a happy 4th of July
I know where you're building!! That is Dorsey next to the Rav.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see it all going up! I'm sure you'll make all the right decisions for you!
If you know you don't want white trim or do, that will help too. I KNEW I wanted a white garage door. So we asked to the color schemes for the stones that included that. It narrowed our choices down. If you know you want something a certain color, ask to see the color schemes for both stones with that. It may help. Just a thought.
Have a great 4th!
Great lot and great selections! I can't wait to see your lot transform into Verona!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chelly :) You and me both !!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say hi, congratulations and thanks for your blog. We are waiting to hear back on an offer we made and hope to sign contract today on a Verona model. It's great to read others experience and get advice as this is completely overwhelming ( but exciting) at times. Best of luck and look forward to following your adventure. :)

I'm jealous that you are able to get a deck through Ryan! They aren't available in our area.
