Default Lilac

We built a Lilac which is the frame version of the Iris.

We stretched the Lani back 4 feet and then had a extra 10 ft pad poured for a Bird Cage Total of 29 wide and 22.8 deep with 12.8 under roof.

The garage was stretched 4 feet forward and the front bedroom two feet to balance out the home.

You can print out your home from the Villages and picture what stretches would do.

Your lot determines the size of your expansions. I was able to stretch forward and aft but not side to side. So get your dreams and house size then you have to find the lot that works best for you.

We wanted a pasture view and no home across from the front view so we had to limit our home to make that work.

One thing my salesman and others told me was you can't have a big enough garage or Lani. The initial expense hurt but now we are now happy we listened and did it.

My neighbor called last night and said we can have dance parties now at the Forwards? Lucky Glen and Pat get to see our home go up and we get to watch the flakes fly here in Syracuse. They send us pics!

Merry Christmas Trish
