  1. Large kitchens, with an island
  2. Granite countertops
  3. Energy-efficient appliances, high-efficiency insulation and high window efficiency
  4. Home office/study
  5. Main-floor master suite
  6. Outdoor living room
  7. Master suite soaker tubs
  8. Stone and brick exteriors
  9. Community landscaping, with walking paths and playgrounds
  10. Two-car garages
