We're back from our DC appt! We had Collette and had a great experience
The final list goes:
-replace knee wall, upgrade to metal pickets
-sous kitchen, gas rough in for stove, fridge cold water line
-faux doors on island & end cabinets - cost as much as upgrading from sous to executive but I liked more
-quartz countertops - looked into doing this after closing but Mattamy's price was comparable
-upgrade sink & faucet
-ensuite: increase vanity height, full size mirror
-ensuite shower enclosure - we did not do the super shower architectural upgrade but we planned to change the bathtub to a glass shower after closing. Chose this upgrade instead, costs $3000 to place a shower pan, wall & ceiling tiles & a pot light.
-upgraded floor tile in foyer/powder rm/garage entry & extended hardwood into kitchen/breakfast area
-removed mirror in powder rm
-upgraded carpet underpad upstairs
-carrara doors & step trim
-smooth ceilings
-relocated cable & phone upstairs from master to loft since we don't watch TV in our bedroom
-relocated a couple lights in dining area & kitchen
-upgraded closet doors to mirror sliders in bedrooms 2 & 3
-1 capped electrical box & separate switch in living room (is this needed for adding pot lights later? it wasn't much anyway)
-rough in for 2 pendants over island
-conduit from basement to attic
Backsplash, changing hood fan, pot lights, security system, & paint will be done after closing. Upgrading bathroom countertops later. There's a few things I'm still thinking about so feedback welcome
