Toll Bothers Wins Us Over...

Although so much had to happen and it would be about 6-8 months before we could get a house, knew we were looking for a new house so we were visiting model homes just for fun. As we turned the corner onto the street of Toll Brothers we looked at each other and laughed, "Shall we go see dream homes far beyond our reach now?" We walked up the path hand in hand. After touring the models it became apparent we just might be on our way to finding our house.

Fast forward a few months to two houses sold, ready to build something! After touring several other builders, Toll Brothers standards were winning over others upgrades.
