Don’t Miss This Year’s BY CARLA HUCKABEE
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

T
he first weekend is in the books, but you still have time to see some of the best new construction in Charlottesville and surrounding counties. Come out to the final weekend of the Parade of Homes this Saturday and Sunday, October 10 and 11, from noon to 5 p.m. Sponsored by Nest Realty and organized by the Blue Ridge Home Builders Association (BRHBA), this 57th Annual Parade showcasing new homes is free and open to the public. You’ll find beautiful homes all along the Parade route, ranging in price from the low $200 thousands to over $1 million. Rich in amenities and long on inspiration, these homes feature kitchens catering to your inner gourmet, master baths that delight and calm, floor plans that live bigger than their footprint, and interiors that bring the outside in. Whether you’re contemplating a new home, have a floor plan already chosen, or are staying put and want some ideas to upgrade your existing home, the Parade is the place to be. There are 21 brand new homes you can view in person. If you haven’t already done so, pick up a map printed inside the Parade of Homes Magazine inserted in the C-VILLE Weekly. The map is also printed in The Daily Progress Special section on Friday, October 9th, and then again in the Sunday Real Estate edition on Sunday, October 11th. From west to east, your first stop in Crozet features eight Parade Homes. Eight more homes are in the Charlottesville and central Albemarle County area. Then five homes in the eastern region wrap up the Physical Parade with Keswick, Palmyra, and Zion Crossroads addresses. Guests touring all 21 of those homes will notice exceptional attention to keeping them safe. Face coverings are required for visitors and hosts and will be provided by sponsor Dominion Energy. Hand sanitizer will also be available in each home, provided by sponsor Guaranteed
Rate. The number of guests touring the home at any one time will be limited to six so that distance between groups can be maintained. BRHBA Executive Director, Jenny Tapscott and the Parade Planning Committee made safety this year’s top priority. In addition to all the precautions being taken in each home in the Physical Parade, if people don’t feel comfortable visiting the homes in person, they can still participate in what’s bound to be the best Parade of Homes in BRHBA’s history.
Going Virtual Thanks to some high-tech expertise by AirLens, LLC, each of the 21 Physical Parade entries can be viewed online. In addition, another five homes are only available digitally on the Parade’s Virtual Tour. There are lots of advantages to having this virtual experience available alongside the Physical Tour. Not only are the Parade entries available online for the entire month of October, but state-of-the-art Matterport technology offers an incredible, immersive experience. More than just a standard 360° tour, Matterport lets viewers feel as if they are actually in the home they are viewing. In addition to the immersive experience, the Virtual Tour allows newly constructed homes that have already been sold and occupied to still be included in the Parade. Christopher Bramante, President of Bramante Homes, has an entry that otherwise would not have been included because the buyers moved in last month. “This year’s Virtual Tour is a testament to how creative and forward thinking BRHBA has been. We are able to include homes that you physically cannot enter and provide way more information than we have ever been able to provide.” Bramante Homes’ entry is at the high end of the scale in this year’s Parade.
“We have never had a home this grand before in the Parade of Homes. While lavish, it is representative of the quality work that we do. We are a low-volume boutique custom builder, only building 12 homes per year. And we are just as comfortable building in the mid $400 thousand range as we are at the top of the scale. We take the time to listen and help craft your vision without sacrificing quality for quantity.” When asked what a successful Parade of Homes looks like for him, Bramante is quick to reply, “It’s about starting conversations. We have been in the Parade of Homes seven of the last eight years and we typically don’t put an entry in the Parade to sell that specific home. We want potential customers to see the quality of work that we can do and envision themselves as part of our custom home building process.” That approach makes the Parade a low-pressure environment for those conversations. The same is true of the other nine builders participating. Their goal is just to start a dialogue. Dominion Custom Homes, Selinger Homes, and True Living, LLC, make up the other builders that join Bramante Homes in the Virtual Only Parade. Builders with entries in the Physical Tour that can also be viewed online are Arcadia, Craig Builders, R.L. Beyer Custom Homebuilder, Ryan Homes, Southern Development Homes and Stanley Martin Homes. Each of the Parade entries will have links and phone numbers to directly connect with the builders right from the website pages featuring the individual entries. This will make it extremely convenient for viewers to start a conversation with any of the builders.
What’s Trending One of the reasons people love the Parade of Homes is they get to see what’s new and trending in new home construc-
tion. Whether you have buying or a little remodeling on your mind, it’s always fun to see what prominent area builders are doing. This year’s Parade will find strong representation for single level living in addition to the traditional layout with all bedrooms upstairs. “Craig Builders is offering both styles in our Parade entries in Old Trail with our new Pavilion and Mechum Models,” says Blissie Du Bose, REALTOR® with Sally Du Bose Real Estate Partners and Customer Representative at Craig Builders. Flexible space is another feature that buyers are looking for in new homes, particularly after experiencing multiple family members working and attending classes from home. Andrea Akers, Sales Manager with Southern Development Homes, says customers are very thoughtful about how they use the space in various floor plans. “What might originally have been a guest bedroom is easily being converted into a second home office.” Other builders are experiencing the same adjustments. Kate Colvin, REALTOR® with Roy Wheeler Realty Co. and Craig Builders Customer Representative, says “With a lot of customers currently working from home, we’ve found the combination of an office in the house and the apartment above the garage in Belvedere provides private, separate spaces to allow families to be productive.” There’s nothing like a little extra space to make everyone comfortable during a pandemic. Another strategy coveted by buyers, and especially helpful when people are cooped up at home, is to bring the outside in. True Living’s custom home in Mountain Valley Farm (included in the Virtual Parade) incorporates beautiful exterior glazing to take advantage of natural light and exquisite views. This allows for huge glass installations with minimal obstructions.

The custom home in Ashcroft by R.L. Beyer Custom Homebuilders is also notable for its massive glass installations. Also responding to that quest for more outdoor living, “Craig Builders has recently added vaulted or cathedral ceilings to screened in porches as part of our main level living home designs,” according to Customer Representative Marc Ammons, and REALTOR® with Nest Realty. “The other really popular option we see now is Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP),” says Du Bose. “The technology has improved so much on these that sometimes our customers can’t even tell the difference between engineered hardwood and LVP. If you have dogs or want an easy, durable product, then LVP is the way to go--especially with all the different colors and stains from which to choose.”

An added benefit of touring the Parade is the chance to visit and become familiar with the different communities that are represented. With eight entries, Crozet has the most homes in this year’s Parade. Du Bose says, “Old Trail has grown so much in the last few years! Whether you are looking for a maintenance-free setting, a private, secluded homesite, or a breathtaking view of the mountains, we’ve carefully crafted a number of different floor plans to capture each and every one of our customers’ needs.” Multiple Parade entries are also clustered in or just outside of Charlottesville
but close enough for an easy commute and access to everything Charlottesville has to offer. Think Payne’s Mill near Belmont, or Belvedere and Cascadia just across the City line into Albemarle County. If a secure gated community tops your list, Ammons says “Glenmore Highlands offers a variety of semi-custom homes with first-floor owners’ suites as well as HOA provided lawn maintenance. With available home sizes ranging from 1,800 - 5,000 square feet, there is a size and layout to suit all needs and styles.” Check out Craig Builders’ entry there. In Fluvanna County, Palmyra is home to three Parade entries. Ryan Homes is showcasing one townhouse and two ranch homes in the Village Oaks community. The ranch style homes feature twocar garages, access to a community pool and clubhouse, and no yardwork. All this is available from the mid-$200 thousands and is close to Lake Monticello. Maybe your dream is to put in a quick round of golf after work or enjoy resortstyle living. If so, the eastern most entry of the Physical Parade might have your name on it. Stanley Martin’s entry near Zion Crossroads is in the nationally ranked golf community of Spring Creek. The variety of communities and settings should appeal to a wide scope of area buyers. From townhomes to estates and many options in between, the 2020 Parade of Homes has a little bit of everything. Beyond the homes and communities,

Whether you’re contemplating a new home, have a floor plan already chosen, or are staying put and want some ideas to upgrade your existing home, the Parade is the place to be. There are 21 brand new homes you can view in person.
the most important thing going for the Parade is easy access to the builders and REALTORS® involved with and staffing the homes. Yes, you can see some fantastic homes, the newest trends in colors, styles, and floor plans, the latest in energy saving gadgets and smart home features. But you can also learn about what is coming next. What other projects are the builders just beginning to break ground on? What features are likely to make it into the next round of new home designs? It doesn’t matter whether you’re attending this year’s Parade in person or virtually, both venues will give you the chance to get all your questions answered. The important thing is to come with your curiosity and an open mind to make the most of all the resources that the 2020 Parade of Homes has to offer.

My 28 year old son, Marine Corps Veteran, UVA Engineering graduate, had a hilarious sense of humor and a big heart. We miss him daily. The loss is shattering. The emotional storms are unbearable. The haunting thoughts never cease, WHY? WHAT IF? Please don't leave your family & friends to live with these feelings the rest of their lives.
When it comes to housing, little things shouldn’t make a difference. If you have children or are pregnant and a landlord refuses to rent to you, requires a higher security deposit, limits the use of facilities, or says you can only live in certain areas of a housing complex ... that could be discrimination. And housing discrimination because of familial status is against the law. If you believe you may be a victim of housing discrimination, contact HUD or your local Fair Housing Center:
Visit www.hud.gov/fairhousing or call the HUD Hotline 1-800-669-9777 (voice) 1-800-927-9275 (TTY)
Your Choice. Your Right. Your Home. A public service message from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development in partnership with the National Fair Housing Alliance. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status or disability. For more information, visit www.hud.gov/fairhousing.
