Can anyone provide a approximate cost for individual upgrades I’m trying to make an educated guess on the final cost and which upgrades I’ll get Thank you.

We signed on 12/11 and close on 4/26. We must have been at the design center at the same time.

Our lot has footings in. I suspect the pool will be dug this week. :coolsmiley:

Prices are just short of being a state secret. If you ask your designer for prices as you go they will give them to you.. Sort of.

Here are some examples. We are building a Laurel Oak.

Extended lanai across the entire back of house. That added 18 feet. ~$12,500.

Wall to build the summer kitchen against ~$2,900.

Stretch laundry room by 3' ~$2,000.

Add golf cart garage (Laurel Oak comes with 2 car standard) ~$14,000

Summer kitchen $25,000 - -$30,000

Upgraded air conditioner ~$3,500

Hard to get prices on actual design choices. Flooring, counters, cabinets, plumbing and light fixtures can all vary greatly in price.

I so over estimated what everything was going to cost that we actually came in under budget. lol

Did

Yes. We went with LVP throughout the entire house.

Did they allow for the vinyl plank flooring in wet areas like the in the kitchen area and baths?

Thank you fellow veteran!!!

Woodside versus Mossy Oak....
 

Wonder which one you settled on? WE were trying to figure that out as well. We rented a MossyOak for a week and didn't like the living area or master suite at all, the rest was perfect. Curious what you decided to do?
:faint:

Would you share the modifications you made? We were sold on a woodside, but now thinking Bridgeport. We like the woodside "privacy" for the master...

Figure 7000 for a 6 foot side stretch on a block garage
6000 to add a jacuzzi and surround
We converted our lanai to climate controlled space on our begonia for 4500 then put a 12x18 lanai on the side for 13000
Took tub shower out of guest and added shower for 2000
Inside we made bedrooms 2, 3 and guest bath large utilizing some of the added square footage from the enclosed lanai piece less than 1000

Added a full walk in pantry.
Made kitchen a cooktop and separate range for 3300.

All ballpark numbers.

Today was another day that I thought I'd like to call the lead builder on this house.

It is a dream to live in. It is comfortable and nicely built and perfect for the three of us. You can tell that he and his teams did their best work and we so appreciate it. We are not a stranger to having homes built. We had built our first home when we were 22 years old. Conventional mortgage and we wondered why the president of the bank did the walk through. Now I know not too many our age had dated for four years and saved every penny we could for a down payment on the little three bedroom, one bath, house with a basement and one car garage. We lived in it for less than two years and my husband got an opportunity in another state. I was heart broken.........

We have since seen many homes built over decades. This one where we now live is the most carefully done of all. Not the biggest but just right for us now. I hope God will grant us a few more years to live here.

We had our final design appointment today. Left the check and they break ground the first week in February.
Closing scheduled for May 23. House will be in St Catherine.
Shanna and Traci are the best! They went above and beyond to get this done.

I have found you never find yourself "goudged" here when building. It is always a pleasant surprise. Our experience and others as well shared with us.

Awesome neighbor

I should have taken a picture. The cul de sac is home to extra portapotties and 5 dumpsters.
The lot to the left of us is starting to build soon. No word on the house between us. Our color and house were approved lol.
