Boring Style?
Change It To One You Love To Come Home To
More than loving the reaction our clients have to our newly finished projects, we are honored and grateful to be able to see them still thrilled with their “new” house after several years.
Fourteen years ago we were engaged by a family who owned a simple, plain ranch-style home. It was ok but they weren’t loving the look of it.
Did you know that you can totally change the style of your home from its original design? Something we remind people about, all the time.
In this story, our clients always wanted a Craftsman style home. Yet here they were, living in a bland ranch. Problem? Not for us!
Curb appeal doesn’t always mean “prettying” up the outside of your home just because you’re getting ready to sell it. It means making it wonderful for YOU so that when you drive home every day you admire the beauty that is your very own house. And of course, so that your visitors and neighbors can also admire your attractive home.
So here’s the funny part – we had been planning on sharing this project with you for a while now, but other projects got pushed to the forefront.
While taking our afternoon walk the other day, a car slowed down next to us, a woman popped her head out the window and yelled, “you did a project for us 14 years ago and we still LOVE our house!” And we chatted in the street about living in a house that truly suits them and fills them with joy. We guess it was the universe telling us it was time to showcase and share this project with you today!
In addition to the happiness they experience every time they pull up to the front of their Craftsman house, they told us they use their new screened porch and their deck with accompanying pergola all the time.
Don’t worry, we’ll show you more photos of the back of their house at a later date. And while we added some craftsman details to the interior of the house, the family’s goal was to change the exterior from plain ranch to Craftsman, a style they’ve always admired.
When working with new clients, we always ask, “what’s your goal?” and in this case, they simply wanted to fall in love with the look of the house, to live in a Craftsman house, and to enhance the curb appeal for their own personal enjoyment for years to come.
And 14 years later, they still do. We took a look at it recently and while the landscaping has matured, the beauty of the house still shines through and warms their hearts every day.
Wouldn’t you love experiencing that same reaction pulling into your home every day? If it’s not happening today, and you feel “stuck” with a style of house you don’t like or that doesn’t work for you, reach out to us. We are willing to bet we can get you and your family “unstuck” and loving the look of your home for now and for years to come.
Your surroundings can totally affect your life,
your spirit, your emotional well being!
Do you have transformational dreams for your house and
simply can’t “see it happening?”
