To the right of the foyer is the formal dining room, which is carpeted and features wainscoting. A dramatic crystal chandelier is situated at the center of the space, and two sunny windows allow natural light to flow freely. To the left of the foyer is the formal living room. At the rear of the home, a eat-in kitchen and den blend together seamlessly. The custom kitchen cabinets have recently been sanded and repainted a bright white, which lightens up the space. A breakfast bar
provides food prep space and casual dining space. A large picture window provides the perfect spot to center a small dining table for daily meals. At the opposite end of the space, there’s a cozy den for relaxing with family. A fireplace with a white mantle is flanked by built-in shelves with storage cabinets. There are master suites located on each floor of this home. Each features a private bathroom, and one has a large walk-in closet. The two additional bedrooms are located on the second floor. Each floor also features a laundry area for convenience.
Within the garage you will find a gameroom with a pool table that stays with the house and an upstairs playroom. Both are heated and cooled. Behind the home is a great inground pool surrounded by privacy fencing. French doors on the garage allow easy access to the gameroom, which houses a half bathroom.

4 things to consider when choosing siding (BPT) - Selecting new siding is one of the most important decisions homeowners face when building new or remodeling an existing home. With so many options - both classic and modern materials there's a lot to consider. Many manufacturers are now combining traditional styles and materials with hightech finishes, delivering a product homeowners can love for years to come. Among all the options on the market, vinyl siding - with its various styles, textures and colors remains the most used product. In fact, 2015 marked 21 straight years vinyl siding held the top spot in cladding for new single-family houses, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's annual home report. Whether you are building a home or remodeling one, there are four key areas homeowners should account for when determining which siding option meets your needs: durability, design, maintenance and affordability. Durability Siding selection is typically a once-in-a-lifetime decision, making durability a key factor for many. Homeowners should look for a siding option that is resistant to every element, including rain, wind and even the sun. Manufacturers now
offer siding products with technologies that resist the damaging impact of the sun, preserving color for the lifetime of the home. Options, like Mastic Home Exteriors by Ply Gem SolarDefense, expand exterior home design with darker, on-trend colors that make your home the envy of the neighborhood. Design Perhaps the mostoverwhelming decision for most when considering siding options is deciding on a style and color. There are seven primary siding material options available to homeowners vinyl, metal, wood, brick, fiber cement, stucco, and stone and countless color and style options within each material type. To guide you in determining what would look best, it is recommended to ask a siding specialist like a contractor, builder or architect for help. They can educate you on color coordination and what would go well with the neighborhood, while still giving personalized options for your home. They will also be able to weigh in on accent pieces like trim and shutters, which can help bring out your style. "Homeowners are looking for more creative and colorful options," said Pat Verlodt, president of Color Services &
Associates, an organization that identifies color trends and educates consumers and manufacturers about those trends. "Whether you're looking for a specific panel texture, such as cedar shake or wood clapboard, or a certain period-specific color scheme to align with historical significance, my recommendation is to look at vinyl. It provides the homeowner the freedom to add low-maintenance color and definition that will never be out of style or need painting or refinishing." Maintenance Beyond style and color, homeowners are also seeking siding that is low-maintenance, which reduces or eliminates the cost and personal time expended for proper upkeep. Each siding material type has a different level of care and maintenance required. Vinyl typically requires just soap and water for periodic cleaning. Wood and fiber cement can require repainting every five to
seven years. Stucco will need to be repainted and sealed. Brick and stone require repointing of mortar. The earlier point about durability plays a part here too, ensuring the option you select is free from potential time-consuming even costly repairs - due to storm damage such as wind and moisture. Affordability Lastly, set a budget. Do your homework on the options and secure estimates, then compare them with your budget. Don't forget that sometimes investing a little more into the project up front
may reduce issues and maintenance costs down the road. As you look to select new exterior siding, be sure to keep in mind these important factors - durability, design, maintenance and affordability to make the best choice possible for your home and lifestyle. To get started on siding your house, look to manufacturer websites such as plygem.com for siding choices, as well as home visualizer and color selection tools that help homeowners experiment with different color and textures before making a decision.

6 expert maintenance tips to keep you warm in your home all winter long (BPT) - Is your heating system ready to brave the long, harsh winter? As cold temperatures take hold all over the country, it's important for homeowners to safeguard their homes from heating system breakdowns. "It's fairly simple to ensure your home is ready for the freezing months ahead," says Mike Clear, vice president of operations for home warranty company American Home Shield, which has responded to more than two million service requests for heating system issues over the past five years. "Paying attention to little things now can help you avoid problems down the road, like unexpected repair or replacement expenses or disruption to your family's routine." Clear offers tips to help you maintain your heating system and keep your home warm this winter:
1. Schedule a maintenance check-up.
3. Routinely clean heating components.
Each year, have your heating system serviced by a qualified professional. This will not only keep small issues from escalating into bigger, costlier problems, but it can also extend the life of your heating system. Once you begin using your heat regularly, check the system filter and inspect the exhaust vent for rust and wear at least once per month.
Easy-to-reach heating system components, like air registers and radiators, should be kept clean and unobstructed. Put this on your weekly cleaning checklist to keep your unit from working harder than necessary.
2. Replace your filters. Be sure to regularly check your heating system's air filters and replace them as necessary, or at the manufacturer's suggested intervals. Clean filters can help cut energy usage, extend the life of your unit and improve your home's overall indoor air quality.
4. Seal the leaks. Keep warm air in and cold air out by making sure your doors and windows are properly caulked or have necessary weather stripping. Not only will this help you stay warm and comfortable, but it will reduce the stress on your heating system.
costs when covered components of your heating system or other covered items break down. Plus, with their network of professional contractors, you avoid the hassle of having to search yourself for a qualified technician to make repairs.
5. Consider a home warranty.
6. Check your hot water heater.
A home warranty, like those offered by American Home Shield, can help you control
Inspect your hot water heater tank for leaks or corrosion, and flush it per the manufacturer's instructions to
eliminate sediment buildup. Test the pressure relief valve once a year to make sure it is working properly. Follow these tips and you'll stay warm and cozy this winter instead of getting stuck in a heating system rut.

Strong El Niño prediction: Ways to act now to protect your home (BPT) - The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has announced a very significant El Niño event will likely continue through winter 2016. While this might provide some relief from the 4-year drought currently affecting much of the West, it may also mean severe rains, winds, flooding and mudflows. El Niño is characterized by abnormally warm ocean temperatures around the equator in the Pacific Ocean. This seemingly small change dramatically influences weather patterns around the world. Typically, El Niño weather trends translate to an increase in rainfall for the southern United States and drier, warmer weather for the northern states. It also often leads to a weaker hurricane season for Gulf and East Coast states, but for West Coast residents the increased rainfall can increase the potential for water damage and flooding. "Water damage is a huge concern, one that can impact the structural integrity of houses and wreak havoc on personal property. It's also one of the most common claims filed by homeowners," says Stephanie Behnke, claims innovation director at Mercury Insurance. The last strong El Niño occurred in the winter of 1997-1998 and led to a series of storms that resulted in severe flooding in California, causing an estimated $550 million in damage, according to NOAA. Rainfall during this period nearly doubled the annual average. Mercury reports homeowner claims during the winter of 1997-1998 increased by 39 percent and repair costs doubled. "Homeowners should regularly review their policies to ensure that their needs are met and to familiarize themselves with what types of damages will be covered," Behnke says. "Many Californians are probably focused on the current drought and haven't considered that El Niño weather could bring heavy rainfall during the next two winters." "Some things are just out of our control - you can't control the weather, but it's in your power to make sure that your home is safe for your family and pets. The summer months are the time to act." California's recent drought and fires could lead to dangerous consequences when the rains begin to fall, because many hillsides have been stripped of vegetation that hold them in place. With these anchors gone, it's very possible the heavy rains could weaken the hillsides and create severe mudslides. Flash flooding is also a very real possibility, because the hard, dried out soil doesn't absorb as much water and this can lead to sudden, fast-moving
water - a combination with the capacity to do a lot of damage. Behnke recommends that homeowners take precautionary measures to help counteract the potential for water and wind damage. "Knowing there is a high probability for persistent rainfall, homeowners should take preventative measures to protect themselves against damages that can occur during an El Niño season," Behnke says. Homeowners insurance does not generally cover flood and mudslide damage, so Behnke suggests homeowners do some research to find out if your house is located in a flood plain. If so, you may want to look into purchasing national flood insurance if you feel your home is in a high risk area. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, a mudslide is defined as earth and rock that travels downhill whereas a mudflow is a liquid stream of mud. Flood insurance covers both flood and mudflow damage, but only covers mudslide damage if defined exactly as the Standard Flood Insurance Policy defines Mudflow. Visit www.floodsmart.gov for more information. Do your research on flood zones and potential mudslide areas before making property purchases. Remember to talk to your insurance agent about your protection options, as mudslides aren't covered by standard insurance policies. Here are a few things you can do to help minimize water and wind damage

to your home and property: Before • Hire an inspector to evaluate your home. Homeowners insurance will not cover damages that are a result of preexisting conditions and negligence, so cover your bases and address these issues before they lead to bigger problems. • Check for cracks or chips in windows and inspect their seals, too. Door seals should also be inspected. Strong winds can easily shatter glass, inviting debris and water into your home. Weak seals and small leaks can create bigger issues if the water gets into the walls. • Evaluate your roof. The roof of your home is an important barrier that protects your property from wind and rain. Loose shingling and weak spots can lead to widespread roof damage, roof collapse or complete exposure of the interior of your home to Mother Nature. Address any leaks immediately. • Have the foundation inspected for cracks and leaks. • Remove trees and branches that are dead or dying from your yard to minimize the chances of damage to your home from fallen trees or snapped limbs. Remove branches and limbs in close proximity to your home. It may be smart to trim or relocate trees that are too close to your home. • Keep an up-to-date inventory of your personal property in the event you need to make a claim. • Speak with your insurance agent to
After • Contact your insurance carrier or agent immediately and file a homeowners claim. • If your property has sustained damage from a flood or mudflow and you have flood insurance, file a separate claim under your federal flood insurance. • Remember to evaluate and document all damages in the event that rain or wind causes destruction on your property to help the claim process move forward smoothly. • If your home is unsafe, take your family and pets out of the house. Your homeowners insurance may provide for alternative housing costs if you need to evacuate your home. Save yourself the headache and hassle and make necessary repairs before inclement weather hits. These simple steps can reduce repair costs and may pay off big time in the long run.

Resolve to cut clutter: Quick, easy ways to bring order to the kitchen
4 ways to tap into the Nordic decor trend
(BPT) - Minimalist Nordic design is taking over the home decor scene in 2016. Scandinavian-inspired design principles, featuring white, simple color schemes and use of natural materials, provide attractive options for creating a balanced, beautiful home. The Nordic movement, which evokes the simple, minimalist homes of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland, is enjoying new popularity as Americans seek to balance work life with home life, and create spaces where they can unplug, unwind and relax. Nearly 77 percent of homeowners reported neutral tones, such as those embraced by Nordic design, make a room feel more tranquil, according to a recent Sherwin-Williams National Home Design and Color survey. Here are some tips to steer your space clear of clutter and embrace the minimalist beauty of Nordic decor for a balanced and bright 2016. Start with a clean slate Selecting the right hue of white paint on your walls can create the foundation for Nordic design. Take a cue from colors inspired by natural, fine-textured stone. For example, Alabaster (SW 7008), Sherwin-Williams 2016 Color of the Year, is a natural, flattering white suited especially for a harmonious atmosphere in bedrooms, bathrooms, living rooms and kitchens. Turn on the light As in Nordic countries, the winter season's long, dark months create a craving for daylight and its positive impact on mood. During these months, take advantage of the daylight you do have by letting window light shine in through a sheer curtain for an ethereal effect in your space. When the sun goes down, create the effects of daylight in your home decor. Incorporate shiny and reflective elements, like a large beautiful mirror hung on the wall, to reflect your interior lighting and give the illusion of a more spacious atmosphere. Use shiny metallic elements such as copper, the metal of the moment, in a living room lamp or for pendant lighting in a white kitchen. Hang paper lanterns in a bedroom to add movement and lighten up the space in a fun and interesting way. Embrace natural tones Nordic design is all about using natural, live-well tones to create environments where we can feel serene. To achieve this look and feel, use earthy, natural materials, such as Carrera marble, to bring an element of sophistication to a countertop in a kitchen or bath. Choose birch or maple wood grains for cabinets and furniture to add balance to lovely light stone grays and blush petal pinks, and create a refreshing, yet uncomplicated atmosphere. Get sharp with geometrics and details Complex shapes, angles and patterns in vibrant colors are also present in Nordic decor. Use a boxy picture frame or multilevel open shelving units to offer symmetry and provide a focal point in your space. In a home that celebrates simplicity, there's always room for a bit of whimsy or a pop of color. Even small details can make a big statement: a zebra-striped pillow on a couch or bed; several multicolored candleholders lined up in a row on a dining room sideboard; or red-painted counter stools in a winter-white kitchen. For more help planning your painting projects, visit your local Sherwin-Williams store or www.sherwin-williams.com.

Stash your stuff where you can see it You don't need a large pantry or countless cupboards and drawers to find the perfect spot for all your stuff. If you have blank space on the walls, consider adding a few open shelves. They provide plenty of storage while keeping everyday dishes and staples, like the coffee canister or cookie jar, within easy reach. The biggest pain point - and eyesore - for homeowners is lack of counter space, and feeling like there isn't enough real estate for everyday essentials. Instead of adding to the chaos, designate a specific "drop zone" for items that find their way into the kitchen each day, like mail, paperwork or electronics. Extend the "everything in its place" mentality to another kitchen staple - the dishtowel. Instead of leaving it in a damp heap on the counter, install a towel bar, towel ring or hook to the side of a cabinet or island to create a spot for it to hang. Not only will it free up space, but like in the bathroom or powder room, you'll always know where to look for it when you need it. The Hensley accessory collection from Moen features soft, square shapes to keep you stylishly organized; plus, it boasts Moen's exclusive Spot Resist finish, keeping it finger-print free. There's also a matching pulldown faucet available within the collection to create an impressively coordinated, organized space for the new year. Storage space that works better, and smarter
www.waldenandkirklandrentals.com w w w.waldenandkirklandrentals.com
If you're lucky enough to have a pantry, go beyond simple shelves to make this area work better - and smarter - for you. Pullout baskets and shallow drawers will ensure your pantry offers a proper place for everything. Curved cradles can turn an ordinary shelf into a beverage storage center, allowing you to store wine, water or soda bottles on their sides, while eliminating the fear of them falling off the shelf. And instead of wasting the space on the back of the door, install a slim, vertical storage system to provide a spot for plastic wrap, aluminum foil and other awkward-sized kitchen must haves. The key to staying organized is making the best use of the space you have. With a little imagination and the right additions, getting the kitchen organized once and for all is a New Year's resolution that's easy to achieve.
