We looked at lots of models (Gardinia, Lantana, Bridgeport, etc.) and decided on the Bridgeport because of the 1/2 bath and large kitchen. We're in the process of enlarging the island and revamping the desk area to a bar area with reconfigured storage.

One thing we liked about the Bridgeport, that has not been mentioned is the high ceilings. Our ceilings are 9', which really opens up the rooms and makes the whole house feel larger. Additionally, most rooms have vaulted ceilings, which takes the total height to about 10'.

Good luck in your search...
MEM - I agree on the ceilings - LOVE this house!
