In return, you need to write something here for the floor plan comparisons...e.g.,
Why Mornach's Maple cannot be compared with Minto's Riverbend?
What are the problems with Urbandale's Menlo Park, Richcraft's Wildwood and Mornach's Spruce?
那就献丑了。本人只讨论户型，有一说一， 无意伤害所提及户型的钟爱者。如有得罪，还请海涵。
总体而言，Mornach 优势在于外观设计，Minto 优势在于内部空间利用。
----- Maple A -----
亮点：
1。 外观新颖，欧陆风情，使人耳目一新。
2。 Kichen 开阔
败笔：
1. 3000sq 的房子没有 DEN
2. 厕所过于巨大，浪费空间
3. Living Room 与 Dining Room 连通，作为3000sq 的房子则过于平直，缺少“曲径通幽”
4. Open to Above 缺乏实质内容
5. 窗户通风面积过于有限。
6. “穿心箭”格局 （可破解）
----- Riverbend C -----
亮点：
1. 旋转楼梯，尽显豪华
2. 双面壁炉隔开 Living 与 Family room，展现情调,同时提高热效
3. 石材外观，提高身价
4. Dining room Open to Above 展示空间
5. Office with 宽大的 bay window，异常明亮。
败笔：
1. 二楼三个卧室并肩 ，隔音差，缺乏Privacy.
2. 外观中庸，缺乏新意
3. Dining room Open to Above 不够大 （最好能 15 x 15）
4. 二楼主卧加 retreat 好看，但太贵！
萝卜青菜，各有所爱！单就户型而言，本人倾向于 Riverbend C。 欢迎大家指正！

真不容易,加声望
再给评评Cardel的房子吧
Cardel is a unique builder in town. It is for people like Riven who is 不差钱
The cul-de-sac Cardel built in Kizell pond is next to Kanata Private, a true million dollar community. Riven needs to update his beamer from 3 series to 6 or 7 series if he wants to move to this community
Exterior with stucco/rock is the signature of Cardel's house....[to be continued]

你就挤兑我把
旋转楼梯比较好看，一般会给人房子上档次的感觉，所以多少有利于resale。Minto有一款很著名的townhouse叫Manhattan，就是有了旋转楼梯，结果西人不少都评论这户型招人喜欢。
如果考虑到搬东西，旋转楼梯也不差的，因为是逐渐过渡。倒是这里最常见的拐两个弯三段式的那种楼梯搬大东西可能会不方便，而且老人孩子等上下楼也不是很让人放心（因为每个直线拐角都有部分梯面突然大为缩窄）。
壁炉从用途上来说纯属摆设，但却多少能带来某种北美情调，尤其房子大了显得空旷寒冷，冬天壁炉火光熊熊，能给人带来暖意。不过这里除公寓外哪个房子都有这玩意儿，少了不会省钱，也没多少人愿在其上加钱，所以不多想也罢。

I see quite many experts hanging around. This is great, because I am learning something new from this thread everyday while also helping people.
I happen to know a thing or two about the Caledonia model. This is the popular Charleston model 5 years ago, only now with 9ft ceiling. You see this model in almost every townhouse block, sometimes the entire block is this model, and it sells well on Grapevine. People love this model, and still do, and here are possible reasons:
1) There is a good flow in the floorplan: from dining room, leads to living room, which leads to kitchen & breakfast. The placement just makes a lot of sense, and is very functional.
2) upstair bedrooms are good size. Particularly the master, which is pretty large. But watchout for the laundry "closet", opening the closet might block the hall way.
3) circular staircase just makes the home look expensive. Strongly suggests getting an endunit so you get a window at the stair.
I personally prefer Caledonia II (the closed kitchen version). The extra wall you get in a closed kitchen gives you more cabinets and hides all the mess in the kitchen. The extra door from dining room to the kitchen is a nice convenience and brightens up the dining room.

To the person who asked about Isla Vista:
I haven't had the chance to see it in person, I heard the model house has been sold, but owner has not moved in yet. Ask the sales at Bridlewood for details. You can also see some pictures of it on website.
