Default A-4's Beautiful Lot

Hey Buddy! I just thought I'd let you know that Janice was in WV when you posted the news about getting your lot in Gillyland. She said that she was sitting on her sisters porch that night and suddenly heard a heavenly host singing the "Hallelujah Chorus" and knew that something significant had happened but didn't know what. When I told her about you getting the lot it all made sense.

It looks great--thanks for the pictures and I can't believe how much progress they made in two days time as my cousin just sent us a couple of pictures the other day as they're leaving town for a wedding in Chicago and the driveway wasn't poured/tile wasn't laid/ourside wasn't painted. I need to find that job ASAP and move into my new home Jim is drooling thinking about that beer making kit He may just have to have one with dinner

We were able to get one from a cancellation. So in late Oct. we secured 12/10. Right now I hear they are out 3-4 months. But your rep can keep checking cancellations! Good luck?

We are trying to get a design meeting for April. Our agent just told us that they are only booking out to Feb. right now. I am hearing different things from different people so I hope we get a spot in April! Good luck.
Trish, do you know what sections you want to look in for lots?

Default Some of Our House

After taking pictures of all the other homes and the gorgeous, grass filled lot of A-4 I finally realized that I haven't been keeping you up to date on what's going on with our home.

A few weeks ago, we found two old, stained glass windows at the antique mall on Rt 44 near Wildwood. We bargained the price down and took them home. Then we had to figure out how to hang then with a back light. We finally decided to build a frame and put a small piano type light behind the glass. I finished up the windows this morning and got them hung. The pics aren't great because of the lighting but they look really nice and give the lanai a homey touch.

Enjoy

I would guess that the 3-4 month timeframe is pretty accurate although I have no hard info in that regard. I would almost bet that the long leadtime is why they're building so many spec homes in 210. Seems to reason that they can make more money selling already built spec homes as opposed to waiting several months for design appts for designer assisted....but, who knows?

Well, I have a recommendation to make about lot selections! I would be totally remiss in not giving a hearty shout out to Gillyland...does that surprise anyone??? I absolutely love it here and it's only going to get better..

I thought that Gilchrist was the only place available! It's kind of like leaving home for college, knowing that the school you are going to is considered the biggest party school in the state.
