It sounds like several of you have bought a lot slightly smaller than you actually needed to get all the bumpouts.
Our agent had a overlay of the model we were interested in so we could fit the house to the lot. The only thing we could do was have the driveway/garage on the left. Everything else was possible. Our agent was able to build out the model get a price, then remove a stretch so we would have a sense of the the costs involved. No disappointments at all.
