FRAMES!!! *PICS* 74Aug 23, 2014 8:03 pm That's very exciting to see the frame up. We were one of the first people to build a santorini, we built it just from seeing the floor plan as there wasn't a display home for it yet! It's definitely a really great design. Re: Our Metricon Santorini! FRAMES!!! *PICS* 75Aug 23, 2014 8:38 pm Thanks StephyD, yes lovely and open looking right at where the kitchen will be and living on the right. Behind me would be where the bifolds open on to the alfresco, loving the open plan design!! trindy it so exciting isn't it! I am dreaming of frames, literally! PhoenixAlessi when did you build your santorini? I'm not surprised, it is such a beautiful home and their best seller and we keep being told!
