What you see from the outside

So I thought I would post about what our place is going to look like, from the outside. Here are a few pictures of other Ryan homes (from The Farm) for reference.

So far there isn't one like ours either in The Farm or Villages of Denver, which I love!!!

So this is a FLORENCE, Elevation K, Cottage Lite.

This is what ours will look like!! but with different colors, and ours will have brick at the bottom (only a touch. This is also the reversed floor plan (driveway on the left) which is what we will have.)

We were going to extend the porch to a full porch but it was expensive to do, a few thousand dollars, and it wouldn't be very wide so not very use-able for us. So instead, we have thought about adding a pergola extension later for a bit of shade since we wont have trees near the house.

So what colors are we getting you may ask??

The reverse of these!  Ok so this isn't a Florence model, but, imagine the lighter color (Sandy Tan) only on the vertical shake siding and by the front door, and the darker (Irish Thistle) on the rest, keep the white trim, add a little brick on the bottom, and now put that on the Florence picture above.

And this is what all of the colors look like together. I wish they offered a darker color selection (and they do in other communities) but I do like these, and they aren't all tan tan tan like I see on lots of other homes.
Kind of funny, when I do see the few homes with this color it does catch my eye :)

So here it is put together! Color option UEL, Irish Thistle main color with Sandy Tan accent and white trim. (you could choose almond too, but I like the crispness of white). Oh! and the  front door color is "fiery brown".

The brick color is Congaree, which is no longer available.
Actually there was a mix-up, and we had to fight hard to keep this brick because we really didn't like any of the other options.
(We chose our colors right on the verge of selections change and were told we wouldn't have an issue. But were later told they couldn't get this brick any more and had to choose another. Our SR, Amber, fought hard for us and they found more brick!! Otherwise we were pushing for stone instead, or no brick and drop the house price. Thankfully, we get the brick we wanted.
Don't be afraid to be the squeaky wheel!!)

And what does this all get built on you may ask?? This piece of land, our future home.

YIPPIE!!!!!

(Oh, and those trees to the right cant be touched! So that will be one of the views from the deck.)
