Floor plan

A couple of you have asked about the floor plan and square footage of the new house. It is two stories with a three car garage. The total square footage of the two floors is 3,785, plus we will have a full (unfinished) basement. The foyer is two-story and the loft has a railing that looks down to the foyer. The whole house has nine foot ceilings which I am super excited about.

Here is the layout of the first floor. We have all of the optional windows, the corner fireplace and a gourmet kitchen. Nate thinks that somehow the gourmet kitchen is going to transform me into Paula Deen and he will be eating like a king.



This is the second floor. We will have a garden bath and tray ceilings in the master bedroom and the sitting room. Please take note of the size of the closet in the master bedroom. I have been a very lucky girl, as far as closets go, but this is the mother of all walk-in closets.



I am very happy with all of the selections we made at the design center this week. On Tuesday we went to the preview hours for the second time and ended up changing our minds on cabinets, counter tops, carpet and flooring. We were much more prepared the second time around and I feel really good about the changes that we made.
