Colour Selection Guide
YOUR COLOUR SELECTION
APPOINTMENT
Building a new home is an exciting time, and choosing the colours and finishes to customise it and make it your home.
This can be a huge undertaking and we want to help you maximise your appointment.
Your colour selection appointment is where we finalise the selections for your new home, so some prior research is a valuable investment in making sure you are prepared.
Colour selection appointments generally run for 2 hours and are held at the Stroud Homes Display Home
