We had a builder, now we need a plan! We had a general idea of what we wanted out of our home. On my list of “must have’s”. a laundry room with a window, a large pantry and a big island in the kitchen where my kids could sit and do homework. On my husband’s list was a finished basement, nice outdoor space and a large garage. Pretty typical stuff! We also wanted each boy to have his own room and a guest room in the basement. I was leaning towards a craftsman style, my husband wanted a more traditional brick home. We met often with our builder, who worked closely with an architect. The end result, a dream home that had everything we wanted and more (I somehow got 2 windows in my laundry room)!! The exterior is brick and stone, and certainly has touches of craftsman.
Ooo, can’t wait to see. We’ve never built a house but I have always loved drawing up floor plans and dreaming! Can’t wait to see your home.
I’ve always wanted to build….please keep us updated with the progress!
How exciting! Now that the negotiations are done, let the digging begin!
Major excitement Kristen! It sounds so great! Please share pictures. 🙂
May the build go well!
