Our Floor Plan

Here is our floor plan. We have all of the optional stuff.

On the main floor we will have a living room and an office. Then the 1/2 bath, kitchen, great room, nook, laundry room and garage. Off the family room is the library (that will be our play room). Upstairs is a bedroom for Brenner and Joren to share and one for the baby. I asked Brenner is he wanted to share with Joren and he did. They each have their own closet. They have a bathroom. Then there is the master bedroom with master bath. In the basement we will have what Ryan is calling an X-box room. I think it is Wii room. Mom (and any other guests) have their guest bedroom. The room under the playroom is officially my scrapbook/craft/sewing room. It also has a full bath downstairs. The back side of everything is a huge storage room (one that that this house was really lacking). I think that having the basement finished- especially with a guest room and a scrapbook room, was the kicker for us picking this house. Oh, and the play room off the great room. There are a few things we would like to be a little bigger or different, but for the most part, this house is perfect!

Brenner has already picked out a new toy for the playroom. And hopefully our back yard is big enough for a play set and sand box as well.

We are in a new construction area, so there is still a lot left to do. There aren't any houses behind us yet so we're going to have to deal with the construction for a while. There will be a park just kiddie corner from us. There is also a park about a block away. The swimming pool (under construction) will be 2 blocks away. The elementary school is about 2 1/2 blocks away. It's about 2 1/2 blocks to the lake and about 1 1/2 block to a proposed church site. We will be able to walk everywhere in this neighborhood.

To get to our new house... coming west on 104th south, you will go straight through the light at the Holiday (instead of turning left). You will turn left on Topview Road and left on Iron Mountain Drive. Our house is 4399 W. Iron Mountain Drive.

Now, after all is said and done... we have put money down, but we are signing the final papers and going over the contract tomorrow, so keep your fingers crossed for us.

Love the floor plan. The best part about it is the location of teh garage to the kitchen...I don't know how you ever made it work in your last house - that was such a trek to your kitchen from the garage. Love it!
