It's what's on the inside that counts, right?

So this neighborhood is a pre- planned community with rules about how many elevations of type A they can have , and what can be next door to each other , etc.

I would guesstimate that there are about 150-200 homes in the subdivision. Most are 1 1/2-2 story homes. There are only a few single story ( which is what I am planning on). There are 3 different elevation options.

1st Option (included in cost)- some stone work, brick and high pitched roof. (Santa would not have a chance!)


2nd Option- (which isnt really an option for me based on location, but I find adorable) How cute is that?








And 3rd Option (A few dollars more!!)
I have a love/hate relationship with this one.
On one hand I LOVE the porch, as it is deeper and more grand than the other homes, I adore the windows on the right of the pic as they wrap around the side. But, I am not a fan of 1/2 circle windows!! (as seen on window on left of pic and above door)Click on pic... much easier in zoom mode.




As you can tell I didn't take any pics of the 1st elevation, as I find it kinda blah, but can deal with it if that is what it comes down to. I still get to pick stone and brick colors and a door that will look fantastic with a wreath!

So, is it really whats on the inside that counts? Is it important for the outside to be unique (ish)? Come on home owners- speak up!!

If it is the inside that counts, I should be good there too as I already got some fantastic chairs!! ( thanks TJ maxx!!)

I'm baaaack!

Ok folks, so I am attempting to blog again.

Not that I have anything all that exciting in my life to blog about, but here goes nothing.

The only sorta fun thing I have is the purchase of my 1st home! I have been looking for a place for literally years, and now am in a place where I am comfortable doing so financially and found what I think to be perfect!

What is it- a patio home!
What is that- perfect!

Ok, fine , you want more words. It just means 0 lot line, and the HOA takes care of the yard!! I will have a small and adorable front yard, and a tiny patio just big enough for a bbq grill and a few chairs.

I have a few pics and will attempt to post..bear with me :)
