## Community Q&A

**Q: What is the square footage of the High Street Residence?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I am interested in the layout but would like to know the square footage to confirm if it will fit on our lot. Thank you

**Q: kitchen countertops are great!** *(in Photo Questions)*

what color are they?

A: Unfortunately we do not have access to the final materials this client selected.  It does look sharp.

**Q: is their a floor plan for this?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The owner has requested privacy of their house plan.

**Q: I love the firepit. Can you share brand and where purchased? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hello Laurie,
That is a great fire pit! Unfortunately we were not able to get additional information about it from the client. Try searching for &quot;hammered copper fire pit&quot; to see if there is something that fits the bill? Good luck!
