#27 Gourmet island



I love my gourmet island. I was standing in the kitchen this afternoon and could just see all the platters that will fit on the island comfortably come Thanksgiving. We have always had a small kitchen with a limited amount of cabinet space and counter tops but boy have we hit the mother load with this beauty. I can not wait to decorate for the holiday with the tree back in the front window where it belongs. This year was the first year ever that our tree was not standing beautifully decorated in my front window. Our town home windows are level to the ground outside because the house is a split level, you enter on the landing and you can either go up stairs to the bedrooms or downstairs to the common areas.

I saw Jerry tonight and he was helpful as always, answering all of our questions and taking notice of the things we saw that need tightening up. I was surprised to find out that our property line extends over a little further than what I thought....Yay! we discussed the walk through and the backyard issues. I told him as long as the back is as flat as it was before they started building we wouldn't have any issues. He agreed that they will need to haul some of the dirt out and level it down. Love that he and I are on the same page.

I also inquired about the refer program and found that in N.C they can not pay you to refer people to them so the new buyer gets a credit in options.

Here is the link to the rest of the pics.

  7. @ 2011 thats what I was thing as well. With all this cabinet space I have to be careful not to crowd it all up with my kitchen gadgets. I'm a total gadget person. I was in target tonight looking at a panini maker and food processor. Lol
