I love the entire house it is so stunning! I personally will not do the garden tub again only because the one I have now is a ton of wasted space. It uses an incredibly large amount of hot water. In my next build we will have a larger shower and a smaller luxurious copper tub. Gorgeous home! 🤗
Congratulations on your new beautiful house, I love your fire place, your kitchen looks beautiful, you have enough lightening with those large windows 🪟
Thank you! I'm so exhausted from it all so far but I'll take that any day over the long wait! There's so much more to do than I really thought about, every time I get something done there's still such a long list of things. But all in all it's a good problem to have, we're definitely happy to finally be in.
Congratulations!! We actually closed onnthe same day April 27th. Itvwas literally a year and a day from when we signed the contract. A lonnnng journey that I am sooo so glad is over lol. How your decorating going? Its so exciting to finally be in the house. I am LOVING this part of it lol. 😊
Congratulations to you as well! So exciting to hear that you're in after that long wait, it's crazy how that waiting period is so mentally and emotionally taxing. The decorating is good but honestly much slower than I thought! My dining table is currently a catch-all for a bunch of decor I don't know where I want it to go yet and my garage is packed with furniture I'm refinishing 😅 It's definitely the fun part though!
Thanks for Sharing the new house tour, Nicole. I like the floor at the first level, as you mentioned the paint color on the wall needs be updated, from the video looks like a little yellow color or warm cream color, i think the builder uses the small window for the bedrooms upstairs because they try to save some cost by putting two small instead of one large frame type of window. Also i am surprised you didn't upgrade the bath tubs. Builders are so greedy as they put very old style bath tubs that used about 20 years ago in the current homes with very less money spent on their own, but once you asked for upgrade, they charge thousands for that.
The paint is definitely too creamy. I love a warm white but it's too dark/yellow! Yes we've looked into upgrading our tub (I'd LOVE to rip out all of that and put in a freestanding tub!) and had looked into some different variations and showers for the others but you're so right, the options they had were very expensive. Maybe someday!
You said in another video you were picking from Benjamin Moore colors and I was wondering what color this is on your walls because I'm looking at painting our new build Edgecomb Gray which is a greige shade that looks a little more beige than grey. Very hard to get a feel for a paint color until you see a whole room that color. Thanks for sharing your journey in building this house I got some great tips from watching your videos.
Wow. This is stunning! So worth the wait! Can you tell me your floors you have? I love the color. We need to do ours post closing! Your bedroom is a dream!!!
Thank you!! Yes, it's Bruce Flooring LifeSeal rigid core LVP in Spring Mist. The pictures on the website are pretty misleading and I couldn't find any posts or pictures of it actually installed anywhere! I know the samples we saw at the design center looked beautiful so I was getting a lot of anxiety when the only pictures I could find looked nothing like what I had wanted, so I was very relieved to see that it was the nice light oak! What are you thinking about going with?
thank you so much. We want an LVP but I just wanted to make sure I found one I liked. The model home had an engineered hardwood that was stunning. But I really would like to do lvp. When we move in we will have tile flooring and a ton of grout. I am not okay with that. So we wanted to change it right away!
I hear you there! Grout is exhausting. I'd make sure to check out everything you can in person, the pictures on the flooring websites have been pretty misleading for what I've looked up. It's really nice to see them in people's homes on instagram so I tried checking out the hashtags with the flooring name to get some closer-to-reality full scale pictures. I hope you can find some of those for yours! I'm such a visual person, the wait to see was awful.
@@nicolenieves I am going to order a few samples also. I am a very visual person also. I just want a nice light oak, that will hold up with 2 cats and our 2 kids for now.
Thank you so much! We have 10' ceilings on the main level and 9' on the second floor and basement. I would definitely recommend the taller ceilings! It makes such a difference
Thank you! We face mostly east, the sun comes through pretty much right on the front door in the morning and our backyard gets a ton of direct light in the evening. It does seem like a lot sometimes! It really came down to just installing some shades on the right windows so that we aren't getting major glare/heat at certain times. I will take that sunlight over the darkness of our north-facing apartment any day though!
Not a problem at all! Looking into it further it is a mix they call "Augustine White" but the closest match I've found was McCormick's Cool Platinum (which is a warm yellow-beige? Such an interesting name!)
Congratulations, thank you for sharing your new home it’s beautiful , I can’t wait to see how you decorate it.
Thank you! There are definitely multiple videos in the works already with different rooms.
I love the entire house it is so stunning!

Gorgeous home! 🤗
Beautifully appointed home! I picked the same look of the floors for our build in Florida. Hope to move in June, 2023.
So bright and open and I love the finished basement
Love your home. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy! 😍
Thank you so much!
I wish you had shown a plan of the house to help us picture the house better.
Your house is gorgeous, congratulations!! I love everything ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on your new beautiful house, I love your fire place, your kitchen looks beautiful, you have enough lightening with those large windows 🪟
Thank you! It's crazy how much that extra light helps, windows and natural light are so vital for me
Congratulations 🎉🍾🎈.!! It’s a beautiful home.!
Thank you so much!!
Congrats!! You will be busy with all the decoration to come :)
Thank you! I'm so exhausted from it all so far but I'll take that any day over the long wait!

Yes girl it’s super exciting to finally be move into the house
🎉 Congratulations
Thank you so much!
Beautiful home what color would you call that floor? Also did they offer an upgrade for the light switches and receptacles to Decora?
Hi Nicole can you share what colour did you use on the exterior of entryway door ? And what is the ceiling height on the main floor?
Thanks for Sharing the new house tour, Nicole.

Congratulations! The house is a dream, I love it. I was wondering if the ceiling height is the same throughout and what is that? Thank you
Thank you so much! We have 10' ceilings on the main level and 9' on the second floor and basement. I would definitely recommend the taller ceilings! It makes such a difference
Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
Which direction is your house facing? Do you ever get too much sunlight?
Thank you! We face mostly east, the sun comes through pretty much right on the front door in the morning and our backyard gets a ton of direct light in the evening. It does seem like a lot sometimes! It really came down to just installing some shades on the right windows so that we aren't getting major glare/heat at certain times.
I will take that sunlight over the darkness of our north-facing apartment any day though!
Very pretty 😍
Thank you!
Beautiful home! What’s the name of the luxury vinyl on the floors?
Thank you! It’s Bruce Lifeseal Rigid Core in Spring Mist
Beautiful home, do you mind sharing the length of your kitchen island?
Thank you! Absolutely, it's 7'x4'
Thank you
Who was your builder? I love this floorplan!
Augustine! It's the Carlyle floor plan
How many sq ft is your home?
It's right around 5000
I actually love your paint color! What color is it? (Sorry if you’ve said this in a previous video!)
Not a problem at all! Looking into it further it is a mix they call "Augustine White" but the closest match I've found was McCormick's Cool Platinum (which is a warm yellow-beige? Such an interesting name!)
@@nicolenieves thanks!!
Nice! Just uploaded my empty house tour!
So exciting, I’ll need to take a look! Congratulations!!
@@nicolenieves thanks!
🎉👏👏👏👍
Just an observation, watching this made me dizzy. Slowing down the camera would be beneficial for those who watch your video.
Love it but you will wish your master was down stairs
