The styles are compatible so that you can create interesting streetscapes by mixing styles within a neighborhood.

Options & Upgrades

Many buyers want more than the standard selection of components and finishes. We’ve simplified your work by providing pre-designed elements, such as media/fireplace walls, computer nooks, mini libraries, special entry and room openings, super decks, pre-packaged kitchen upgrades, super-sized family rooms and master bedrooms. All of these can create “wow” in the mind of the buyer, and boost the builder's profit.
