Some pictures as promised...

Ok, this last weekend we toured a Bainbridge model in another Ryan Homes development called St Annes, I snapped quite a few pics and then drove down to Odessa National and snapped some pics of lot 22, the lot for our future new home. Not much to look at but we're obviously excited about it!

Picture of Lot 22 (our lot)

Obviously not much to look at right now. The area behind our lot, where the greenfields exist, will become Copper Park according to the development plans. Copper Park will contain a baseball diamond, a shared sports field area, and a few other attractions.

Looking across the street from lot 22

The homes in the distance are the first phase built by Ryan Homes, called the Tweedsmere section. Our section is called the Lynemore section.

Photo of the golf course looking out across the street

You can see the golf course in this picture. The Odessa National golf course is scheduled to be ready for play by Summer of 2008.

Looking down the street to the right from the front of our lot

The home you see down the street is the old farm home. I'd imagine it'll be torn down sooner or later.

Looking down the street to the left from the front of our lot

Not much to say with this picture. You can see that much of the Lynemore section is already under construction, and many homes are already finished with people living in them.

A Bainbridge ready for settlement

The above picture is the home we walked through in the St Annes development. Our house will look a bit different, as this home uses "Evelation A". Elevations, for those who aren't familiar, are about how the front of the home looks. Our future home will have siding all across the front, but we've chosen Elevation D, which adds a two foot bump out to the front right of the home (the entire area to the right of the front door in the above picture), and a one foot bump out for the front door area. Elevation D also includes a double gabled roof, which adds a bit of elegance to the roofline. If I can find a home with our chosen elevation D, I'll post up a picture to give a real example.
