Does anyone out there have an attic in their C model? I know there is empty space up there, but I don't know if it is possible to use it. Since it is a small place, even a small amount of attic space is valuable.

I believe over the years I have see them in the hallway of some model E's. I don't recall seeing any in a model c, My guess is the staircase would need to go into one of the bedrooms since the hall is small upstairs.
Before trying it I'd suggest first cut a hole or perhaps theres a hatch in the ceiling of one of the bedroom closets first to see how much room is there and if its feasable.

I'd be interested in knowing what you find since I have a Model C also and have thought the same thing.

I also have a model C. There doesn't seem to be any hatch in either closet upstairs. I really don't think there is enough room between the ceiling and the roof to make an attic space, otherwise there would have been an access door somewhere. But then on the other hand these places are very poorly built anyway.

When I first had my town house built on Snowberry, the attic hatch was an option. Cost more, but space was appreciated.

Dawn, was that a C model?

There are no model C's on Snowberry, only 2 or maybe 3 model B's. The other's were built by the Michaels Group. At the time they were known as Rosen Michaels. But there won't be a home on Snowberry that will compare to a regular Guyer built Model C

Actually Hugh, as I recall it, the Michaels group built the 4 unit homes on Snowberry. Guyer bought the remaining lots, and modified the rest of the street for twin homes (The Glenbrook II offering - see the lot layout on the tax maps, both the 4 unit and the twin unit lots are shown). Guyer then offered 3 different units, a single story 2 bedroom for 42,995, a 2 story 2 bedroom for 44,995, and 2 story 3 bedroom unit for 46,995. The latter is the most common twinhome on Snowberry and is a smaller version of the Model C and, as Dawn points out, for an extra fee you could have a 4' door to the storage area located over the kitchen installed. This access door is in the front bedroom sidewall

I believe in the larger model C's some people have installed doors to that space themselves, either through the side of the front bedroom or through the loft/landing area. Realize if you do that, you will also need to put down some plywood to create a floor

You could be correct, as far as I know there are two lots on Snowberry that Guyer built on. The Guyer model C was a 900+ sq ft town home on a slab, it was the basic in the early days. The E model took over in popularity on Arrowwod and Thimbleberry. I've only seen model B stlye on Snowberry but that only is from my own observation. I'd have to drive throught the street to be certain.

I have a three bedroom two bath townhome,I dont know what the model is, however off of the 2nd bedroom, upstairs, there is a door which opens to a large, attic like area and it is perfect for storage etc

the 3 bedroom models are model B's if built by Guyer....Tex 111 siding is the difference. The C model is tex 111 with 2 bedrooms both on the second floor and washer and dryer in the kitchen.

If you have 3 bedrooms you have a b model, or a michaels group home, which will have a hot air system in it versus electric baseoard

Is there any way you can obtain floor plans of all the townhome models in Luther Forest online?
Thanks for the info!

What model is my home? It is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath, one floor home with an attic hatch in the hall between the bedrooms & bath. It is unattached with a 2 car garage & 1/3 acre.
It is converted to gas heat/with unit up in the large attic.( Ermine Lair)

My apologies,

I thought the C's were the 3 bedroom and the B's were the 2 bedroom. Oh well.

I only have a copy of the Guyer offering for the twinhomes on Snowberry, and as you can tell I'm not sure about the alphabet soup. But I'll be happy to try and post the document.

A little thread drift here...

I've been wondering this for a while and since it appears we have some Luther Forest old timers in this thread-

When the lots were originally surveyed prior to construction, were iron rods set to mark the lots corners? Were they left exposed so someone could yank them out or set below grade to discourage removal? If so, maybe I could borrow a metal detector to find my lots exact boundary's.

I'd like to know the boundry's for my own curiosity, but I don't want to know so bad as to hire a surveyor.

Old timer? Well, let me pull up a rocking chair and share my thoughts...

Generally, in a development, the owner has to pay extra for stakes. That's just one more way the can nickel and dime you. So unless you've been told they are there by the previous owner, I would guess not.

You can go get a copy of the survey at town hall, and get a general idea of where they might/should be, and then do the metal detector thing though to check. The ones in the front yard will be set back from the road, usually about the same distance as the cable boxes.

EB is exactly correct, if you're looking for the sidelines, generally speaking the utility box will be on the line. If you get a tax map or plot plan and buy one of those wheel measuring devices at home depot you could get a pretty good idea, but it wouldn't be exact.
