* Over-sized electrical service * Electrical room for telephone, electrical panel, security, audio/video, etc. * 4-plex outlets instead of duplex * 2 double ovens * 2 dishwashers * Foot pedal-operated faucet for vegetable sink * "Y" shaped connector below garbage disposal (vs. 90 degree bend - fewer clogs) * Over-sized disposal line (fewer clogs) * Slide out shelves in kitchen cabinets * 42" high kitchen counter-tops (saves the back) * Cushioned hard surface kitchen floors w/floordrain (less fatigue) * Whole kitchen vent/fan (less heat while cooking) * Fixed counter-top windows below overhead cabinets in back-splash (free counter-top lighting and room lighting - great effect) * Flex conduit from electrical room to everywhere * Waterproofed bath products/linen cabinet in shower (no more getting out of the shower for soap/towel/shampoo, etc.) * Built-in doggie door * 10 x 10 Roll-up door at rear garage wall (backyard access) * Reversible 2nd floor windows (easy exterior cleaning) * Slightly (2") raised toilets (easier dismount for seniors) * "Waterboy" whole-house water system filter * Basement A/V room with false walls to hide/recess equip and speakers. Just a few on my future list...;0) JD |
