Elevation Change!

Big news today. We went to our 14-day meeting with our SR today thinking we were done with making changes. Little did we know that the lot next to us pulled out of their contract. This was GREAT news for us because the builders in that lot had chosen the elevation that we originally wanted, Elevation D, and therefore we had to choose Elevation E for ours. We also had the option of taking over their lot, but stayed with ours. So now we will be building an Elevation D Palermo! When I get a chance to scan things in I'll show everyone the differences, but we get a larger front porch and ~80SQFT more for a lower price (due to the fact that Elevation D has less stone than E).

In addition to the elevation change, we decided to go with  the Uba Tuba and Maple Cognac in the owners bath. We asked our SR about changing the bowl color and she said that there weren't standard options for that. We'll see if it grows on us once we move in, but even if it doesn't, an undermount sink change isn't too drastic.

We also picked out the location for additional outlets. We needed one in the media closet, and got an additional outlet in the garage.  Props to RickandNadese for the suggestion to get an outlet under the master vanity! We think that will be a great addition. We also added one in the closet just-in-case.

One step closer to construction!
