Rachel and I are currently trying to figure out what kinds of things/rooms/areas to put in our home. I think that we have decided to go with a custom builder and have them help us design a house for us. We would like to keep it at around 2500 sqft, so no we will not be putting in an Olympic-sized swimming pool. But if you could think about your house, and the things you like about it (or don't like for that matter) some creative input would be much appreciated. We've got some of our own ideas, but there are always better more interesting creative ways to do stuff.
Here are the basics as far as rooms go:
Kitchen, Family room, nook off kitchen (for eating), 3beds+master, 2.5 baths, mudroom, 3 car garage, library/den/study, Laundry/craft room. I don't know if we want formal spaces like a traditional living room of dining room. In both our parents houses the don't seem to get used all that often.
But like I said, anything you like about your house or anything you really think we should leave out post it as a comment. It would really help us out!

ReplyDeleteHey Nathan for you sake, Make the laundry room big enough that Rachel doesn't have to complain about it all the time. I've had experience with this situation. Take for what you will. DO IT!!!
ReplyDeleteDamien was saying today how if we build a custom home he wants a stainless steel sink in the kitchen. A playroom for the kids and a big deck for me. Also, Damien said to make sure you network it while it is being built, not after.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm pretty sire Damien just added you as a friend on FB to play Pirates with you.
Make sure you have enough counter space in the kitchen to bake cookies with the kids and a BIG walk in pantry to store extra food for food storage
