Why we chose the Avalon Model...

By -
These are a few of the reasons we we chose the Avalon with Elevation B:

*The Avalon is the largest model in terms of square feet that RH offers in our area. It is estimated we will be close to 6,000 sq ft of finished space once we finish the  basement! 
*Elevation B is unique and we love the majestic style with it's columns!
*9 ft ceilings come standard on each level - even in the basement! 
*Two story Family Room & Foyer give the term "open concept" a new meaning!
*That balcony though! We haven't seen another RH like it! And yes, we have all intent of climbing out the window to hang out on there with our teenagers! 
*The dream kitchen is massive! Gourmet island, morning room and a hutch are absolutely perfect for our family of 7!
This was the best selfie we could get! Haha!

That HUGE pile of dirt is ours!

Way Too Involved Husband

I have a three step process I like to use when looking at houses.... 1) Find a cool house on zillow and stare at pictures, imagining how cool it would be to live there. 2) Go see the house, take tons of pictures, make a bunch of design simulations with our furniture in it and talk my wife's ear off about it. 3) Find a house I like better and never speak of it again After realizing that there was no such thing as too much space, we decided to look into Ryan Homes since the price per square foot was similar to "used" houses. We had our hearts set on living in Victor, since the taxes are low and Karla's friends are all out that way. We tried to find lots of our own but realized we had to pick between 50 foot hills or houses in the boonies where there are more cows than people. We found the Tuscany Hills development and realized it was a nice compromise. We fell in love with the Avalon floor plan and started imagining the possibilities. As per step 2, I design

The Contract

Hi Everyone! I'm Karla, or as my husband, Darryl, calls me the "Real housewife of Tuscany Hills" As of 8:15pm tonight it was official, we signed the contract with Ryan Homes and we are building our Avalon in Victor, NY! The Contract... Ugh! Today was a complete emotional roller coster! We were told by our SR (Sales Rep) at 9pm last night that we had to read through the contract, sign and return it to her within 24 hours. If we didn't accomplish this we would lose our lot to the next buyer in line. Why the pressure? Well, I'm not sure if it was true or a carefully planned sales ploy, but we were told earlier this week that there were two other buyers who were interested in our lot. We knew we really wanted this specific lot.  As you can imagine by its name, Tuscany Hills is full of hills! The lot we chose was one of the few flat lots. According to our SR if we didn't put a $1000 five day hold on the lot we would lose it to the other two potential buyers.

Stalking the Avalons & Photos!

The model we chose to build, the Avalon, is not a commonly built home here in the Rochester area or anywhere from what we can tell. In our initial excitement of a new home we shamelessly scoured the internet for photos, floor plans, blogs, videos...basically anything to give us more information or visuals of our future Avalon.  To say the least, we were pretty thorough in our search. I would like to think we resemble private investigators or detectives, but if I'm being completely honest we are nothing more than skilled stalkers (my husband is more talented in this department than I) Our hunt lead to a few finds... We discovered two blogs written by couples who had previously built Avalons. We reall enjoyed reading those (links to blogs below)! My husband also found a video tour of an Avalon located in VA. We have watched the video so many times I've lost count! Darryl has it memorized. The link is below if you want to check it out! Despite our enthusiasm for the few things
