The Ryan – B1

The most comparable two-bedroom layout at The Ryan to the Desert Lily is the B1 floor plan. Both floor plans offer a comfortable layout for two people looking for a mix between social and private space. 

The bedrooms are conveniently located on opposite sides of the apartment with the kitchen and living space through the middle. Plus, both units feature a balcony, entryway storage, spacious walk-in closets, linen closets in the bathroom, plus a convenient guest-accessible door to one of the bathrooms.

However, there are a few key differences between these floor plans. The B1 boasts a functional kitchen island, a shower/tub combo in one of the bathrooms, and closets located inside the bathroom. The Desert Lily features a kitchen peninsula for a slightly different layout, all stand-up showers for a modern touch, with one bathroom offering double sinks, and closets situated in the bedroom for a more traditional feel. The Desert Lily is also more equitable in terms of closet space.

The Stewart – Jagger

However, the Jagger features a kitchen island instead of a peninsula, no dedicated entry storage space, and no guest-accessible bathroom. The Jagger’s bathrooms feature one stand-up shower and one shower/tub combo, skipping out on a double-sink vanity in the primary bedroom as opposed to the Desert Lily.

On the other hand, The Desert Lily provides a more spread-out feel with bedrooms positioned apart and boasts two walk-in closets for maximized storage. All bathrooms feature modern stand-up showers, and The Desert Lily even includes convenient entry storage to help you stay organized from the moment you arrive.
