Plan customizations include, but aren’t limited to: 

• Adding a finished basement
• Choice of laundry room locations 
• Adding en suite baths or Jack and Jill baths to bedrooms
• Designing your kitchen layout: Choose a standard, gourmet or gourmet plus kitchen design
• Designing your primary bath layout: Choose a grande shower, luxury shower or freestanding tub 
• Adding a deck, sunroom or screened-in porch
• Converting the first floor bath to a full bath
