Hi, my husband and I are starting the process of building our dream home, the "Verona", with Ryan Homes here in Richmond, VA. This is our second go with Ryan Homes. The first time was 6 years ago, when we were building our very first home: a townhouse. I thought that process was crazy, but I now see that this is a MUCH more detailed process compared to our townhouse purchase. We chose everything in one meeting and that was that! I felt like our townhouse was done within 3 months.
We are currently living in an apartment downtown until our home is completed. Here are a few pictures of our townhouse, which we absolutely LOVED. we're currently renting it to a wonderful tenant, but we miss it from time to time :-(
Choosing a Floor Plan
At first, we were battling between 2 models: the Verona and the Jefferson Square. The Verona is a more practical model where all the space is utilized, while the Jefferson Square is definitely a showcase model with a beautiful staircase. My husband finally made the decision between the 2 floor plans. So, here we are taking the journey to our "forever home" as my husband calls it.
Here is a picture of the model home. This is elevation M, which is the same elevation we'll be getting. The only difference is that we will have a side garage door entrance:
