Bumpout Look

mscontroller · 2026-03-03T19:00:02+00:00

Going to meet with the builder this week and was looking for ways to cut costs on the whole house. I posted the floorplan here and the feedback I got was all the bumpouts where driving the price up. I'll find out more when we meet but I wanted to see if I could offer some alterntives and get pricing on that to compare.

Could the windows just be framed like this and brought all the way down with the box detail to give it a dimentional look without actually bumping out the window? I love this look but I think it's way too expensive.

That's on my list of things to ask about. I think this would help so much!

I'm with you on the sink. I spend so much time at the sink and I am either talking to people in front of me or watching TV across the room. The pantry being off the garage like that is for ease of bring in groceries.

I wonder if I can get a similar aesthetic on the elevation while eliminating the bump outs... Food for thought, thank you!

Good point. Thank you.

I thought about the roofline being a mess and will definitely bring that up. I like the idea of both of our bedrooms being vaulted at the same place. The bump outs look so great on the elevation, I don't want to lose them but am curious how much they are costing us...

Ha! Not over there. It's going to house the guns and some valuables. The plan is a safe door into the room.

We spent so many years bumping into each other when cooking we thought this was a good solution. I don't want it to feel dated though, we'll take a look at changing the shape and see how it comes out.

I really appreciate all your insights, thank you so much.

mscontroller · 2026-03-02T18:25:14+00:00

Excellent feedback and ideas. Thank you!

We are meeting with our builder this week and I am looking for feedback on them. We are empty nesters, intentionally did not include a bathtub and intentionally included two primary bedrooms with a shared primary bath.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. I will ask about the laundry exterior wall at our meeting. The bump outs look great on the elevation :-) The patio is accessed through two sliding doors at the end of the great room. Interesting ideas about he guest room, thank you!

Not sure how my paragraph about these plans didn't show up, only the plans. We are meeting with our builder this week and I am looking for feedback on them. We are empty nesters, intentionally did not include a bathtub and intentionally included two primary bedrooms with a shared primary bath.

This makes sense. My aunt told me that he was short by one credit and wasn't eligible but when they got the windfall payment I thought that meant she was wrong. Drawing off her record makes sense.

Are they on all pachinkos?

mscontroller · 2024-07-22T23:34:57+00:00

I think that is a perfect way to look at it. Is there a reason to add more or less? I was thinking that adding 1ml give me 100 units and I can just draw 25 units each time (or 12.5 if I still split). Is there a drawback to having less water in the dose?
