First, let me take you through a little history on how we got here. We just moved up from Florida on a job transfer so the goal was to get settled into the new area as quickly as possible. As with ever decision in our lives we didn't do much research before finding a home. We had just come off of new construction in Florida. We built a beautiful two-story Mediterranean home which completed last August (2012). So we were a little experienced now than when we built our first home. Although they say you never get it right until you build your third home.
Having said that one of the first things on our list was to never go to two-story again. When we built in Florida we sort of went against the grain building a two-story home which we found out later was definitely not as practical as a one-story. This is true especially with the generous lot sizes, relatively low construction prices and resale desirability.
Having done some minor research on the Internet prior to arriving in Fredericksburg (VA) Ryan homes offered at least three one-story models. Based on the floor plans and the pictures you could see on the Internet, we fell in love with the Pisa Torre. This was a really neat looking house. The morning room was an especially nice feature. You definitely have to get the extra windows in the morning room to add in the extra light.
