So we got our home taken care of over the weekend, now we just have to wait while they construct it! I was surprised at how much we are getting for such a low price! As long as we are financed at less than 5.25% we'll be paying LESS (with property taxes, HOA & home insurance) than we pay RENT for right now!!! Yowzers. We were able to get a lot of things I wanted: full glass front door, 5pc master bath, double oven, shadowbox fence. Ryan got a lot of what he wanted: covered extended rear patio w/pre-wire for ceiling fan... which believe me wasn't a cheap little thing! LoL... we're really pleased, it was hard work designing our home but I know it'll turn out beautiful. We went with cherry cabinets in the kitchen with light counters and floors, paired with black appliances. All our lighting fixtures (well 99%) are the same style, our master bath & 2nd bath upstairs have 35" high counters in a birch-light brown color (they called it Fawn), 20" oval sinks, 4ft shower in the master with a garden tub... the 2nd bath has a smaller tub/shower (this will be great for kids)...
Overall I think it was a great experience and I can't wait til we can furnish those other rooms with baby furniture (and a "Mother In Law" suite) and get people to come over... I'm so glad we're on an end unit [ for now, it could change ] so we should get a lot of great sunlight & especially into our master bath...
I'm really excited for construction to be done so we can decorate the nursery... neutral "love birds" is the theme I chose. I thought it was a good theme for boy or girl, we can throw in more jungle animals for a boy too... I just really don't like pastel or primary colors... so I want to stick to bright, joyful fun colors.
