Why Build?

Why did we build?  We couldn't find everything that we wanted in the current inventory on the market. We were driving through Charleston Oaks one day and there was a house open that had just been built that they were finishing painting.  We walked in and it was over from there.  It wasn't our floorplan but a similar floorplan.  It took about 2 weeks before we really seriously considered building our own home but we finally did it.  We could not stop thinking about that house that we walked through! 

July 31st was the day!  The day we signed our contract with Ryland Homes to build the Barrett II on lot 155 in Charleston Oaks.  OMG - How exciting! First I fell in love with the floor plan and then I fell in love with the kitchen when I walked into the model home.  Chris loved the open floor plan and one story concept but knew we needed to add a bonus room. 

Here is the what the outside will look like.  We selected Sage as our color with a black door and black shutters.  We can't wait to add a few black rocking chairs to the front porch. 

Here is the floor plan.  We love the open concept and the lay out of the bedrooms.  The bonus room is the only room upstairs.  We chose to add the bathroom to make it an extra bedroom.

Here is our lot. Corner lot that backs up to woods. 

Here is a picture from the model home's kitchen.  I can't wait to cook and entertain in this kitchen.
