House Hunting: Mission Complete

Hi friends! I have some exciting news to share today...we got a house! I alluded to this over the weekend via Twitter, but I didn't want to jinx myself by writing about it until the contract was signed. We're moving into a neighborhood called Stapleton here in Denver. It's a master planned community with AWESOME amenities, and it's incredibly close to downtown. Coming from Nashville, the home prices were quite a shock, but we were able to find a home in our budget that we can grow into. There's a ginormous basement that we'll finish down the road, and we plan on being in this home for awhile to come.

Here's a picture of the same model we're building, but ours will have different colors. The colors were already decided for the build since they already have a permit for it (bonus-- it'll be finished earlier rather than later), and I think our exterior color palette will really make the house pop.

Body: coffee/cappuccino

Trim: dark olive/brown

Door & Accents: black

Here's the floor plan, I'm already excited about working with Abby from A Delightful Design to make this house a showstopper.

Some amenities in the community are below. We are bursting with excitement and cannot wait to move in come late July, early August.
