About the Sequoia Model Home
If you’re moving into a Lennar Sequoia in Huntley, Lake in the Hills, or Gilberts, you’re probably wondering what it costs to paint before you move in. These two-story homes are popular in new communities, and we’ve priced several of them for homeowners who want fresh color on day one.
What Areas Were Included in Our Estimate
For this Sequoia project, we calculated 3,243 square feet of wall space. The rooms included:
- Dining Room
- Foyer
- Kitchen
- Breakfast Room
- Family Room
- Owner’s Suite
We did not include bathrooms, walk-in closets, the garage, laundry room, or optional loft/third bedroom.
Paint Brand & Finish Used
We priced this project with Sherwin-Williams Duration Matte, but here’s the good news:
Right now, Emerald Matte is the same price as Duration thanks to a Sherwin-Williams promotion.
That means you can upgrade to one of their highest-performing wall paints at no extra cost.

- Add closets: +$400–$600 depending on size and shelving
