Absolutely stunning!  I almost envy you.  Congratulations!

I can answer that for lucky.  Yes, they are 4.5 foot.

I was wondering why do you need that little patches of dirt on the side yards as it would make the narrow path way even narrower.  Now I get it.  Good idea.

lucky, thanks. The Guidelines is definitely not in the CD they gave me.  How did you get yours?

Where do you get a copy of the Design Guideline?  It mentioned in the Stonegate HOA CC&R but I didn't find it in the CD that Saratoga salesperson gave me.  Is the plan submitted to Stonegate HOA, or Saratoga HOA?  Is there even a separate body governing Saratoga HOA?  Is there a website for the...

Sorry "owner" and you're right. I meant "shopper".

world chaos, your trying to spell Mandarin in English characters makes me all not figuring out what them mean. And to irvinehomeowner, your assessment of the Mandarin is all getting back-ward, man.  Your resentment towards Chinese/Mandarin seems to tell you're part of "Green Party" in Taiwan. ...

This is starting to get juicy.  Keep all these landscape plans/diagrams coming so I can steal some ideas for my small landscape in the near future. Hat off to lucky and JasonTheArtist.

I think you've made the same mistake Christopher Columbus had made, in reverse. Or maybe you're comparing Taiwanese to Native Americans, which, I think, there is no comparison.

To me,  Mei Long Village, the no. 7, is way better than DTF, the no. 1.

She actually emphasized that I do not own the Mineral Rights.  And I've known that before I went in to sign the contract that Irvine Company has since sold the Mineral Rights to some other person/agent. 

I also heard that Indian claims that their English accent is more original than British or American.

At the time of signing the purchase contract, I was told by the salesperson that I own that land all the way to the center of the earth and even the air above to a certain height (exact number I forgot).  Was I miss-informed?  I need to read the contract.

Regarding parking in front of garage, I've asked the question.  The short answer is it's not allowed.  City considers the streets in front of our house as fire lanes.  But in reality, since there is some space between the garage and the street, including the sidewalk, it's a temptation to park...

I just don't understand why are they hiding these information?  They're like in the default mode of giving out information as little as possible regardless what it is.  What are they afraid of?

I asked at the time of signing purchase agreement for the lot dimensions and I was handed a copy of diagram with very minimal information.  They must have these information for their constructions.  I don't understand why they want to hide them from us.  I'm going to press them again next time...

Din Tai Fung, in my opinion, just market itself well and their dinning environment is better than other Chinese restaurants.  For the foods, I can find more genuine tastes in monterey park/San Gabriel area.  And the constant crowd in front of the restaurant keeps me off.

Thanks.  Do builders give out this info at the closing?

Back on the topic.  For people with new home purchase, how do you find out the exact lot dimension of your home?  Will builder provide the number?  I want to know the lot size and back/side yard size to help the future landscaping and selling the house.
