We built a Sunflower with the 2bd/den even though we did a 2 ft stretch down the entire side it was not enough to accommodate a closet in that front room.

We actually feel fine about it. Simplifying and all that.

BUT, we are seriously considering closing in the "nook" and making it a large pantry. We would put in a "coat closet" in the foyer and the pantry across the nook area. A place for a/c storage for dry goods and probably the modem, wireless printer, file cabinet etc.

We have considered a nice desk area there too. But I just know it would end up cluttered and I don't want that. With everything wireless we an sit on the lanai and be online, so the desk idea is less appealing.

We haven't made our final move...so lots of time to consider options. But we were sold on the GC garage, privacy in master, guest area with closing slider across the house. Even added an extra 9 ft slider to the lanai.

It all worked well for us except that nook which will never be used as a nook! Haha!!
