HOUSEFUL of DREAMS

Cheery blooms in the front garden and a gracefully pillared front porch are little clues to the warmly gracious style of this model home in Woodhaven. Another creation of Heritage Homes, the 3,419 square foot rambler at 4906 Loden Court in south Fargo is currently being used as a new home sales center, illustrating the quality and care that is built into each Heritage home.

Woman-Centric design elements throughout the home create functional yet beautiful areas for entertaining, storage, relaxing, and flexible living — it’s a signature design concept for all Heritage homes. The advantage is that each homeowner determines how to express these design elements to suit his or her family and lifestyle.

Let the Dreams Begin

The view inside the front entrance invites a closer look. An elegant round chandelier shines through the windows above the door, while natural maple laminate on the floor matches the fourpanel maple coat closet doors. On the left are two bedrooms, while straight ahead is the great room with a view of the dining room and kitchen. On the right is the hallway to the master suite, and stairs to the lower level are cordoned off with a maple banister inset with frosted glass panels.

Sleeping in Style

The first bedroom on the left could easily double as a home office, den, or craft space. Four windows overlook the front yard. At the moment it is decorated with white Provincial furniture antiqued in gold. Pink circles on white linen add a color punch to the ceiling-to-floor window treatments. The bed linens have a pink, green, purple, and aqua teardrop pattern on a white background with fun throw pillows. Art prints of ‘fashion’ and ‘Paris’ sit in pink striped mats in white frames. Added color from the pink flowers in pots on the dresser and nightstand make this a lively, vibrant environment. The bedroom area is completely carpeted in tan frieze carpet, with sand-toned walls. The maple casements enhance the neutral, light theme.

In the middle of the two bedrooms is a bath finished in ceramic tile. Four lights on the bar above the large mirror add warm light to the bath, while the quartzlook countertop complements the natural maple cabinetry.

The second bedroom is a skateboard enthusiast’s dream. A dark chocolatecolored dresser with matching mirror and nightstands make a bold statement. Royal blue window treatments are lined for insulation and for privacy. The striped blue and white duvet on the bed leads the eye to the 4 x 6-foot skateboard photo above the bed. To the side, two skateboards — wheels removed — create a fun bookshelf.

Entertainment Options

The great room, visually defined by tan frieze carpet, sets the imagination humming with possibilities. Beautiful windows with nine lights overlook the back yard. Above, a deep olive recessed ceiling detail sets off the lighter tan of the walls. The contemporary brown tweed couch and loveseat have accent pillows in tan and brown silks. A flatpanel television is on the wall above a distressed cherry entertainment center. Matching rectangular coffee table and end tables are also in the deep cherry tones. Linen drapes with a chocolate fleur de lis pattern on tan frame the windows in the great room and dining area.

The kitchen and dining area are open to the great room, allowing conversations to flourish while meals are prepared. The bump-out dining area has windows on three sides, including a patio door to the back deck area. Another dramatic ceiling accent in the dining room: a rectangular drop down finished in deep olive, has rope lighting above and a three-light chandelier below. A cherry table with matching wood-back chairs creates an intimate dinner space. Today the table is set with pottery dishes, complete with sparkle napkin rings with cream napkins on woven brown placements. Below the table is a whimsical leather-rag rug, also in brown and cream tones.

Luscious granite countertops in black and taupe line the L-shaped kitchen and two-tier island. The higher tier is just right for grabbing a snack while sitting on one of the two leather-topped wood stools, or can be used as a handy buffet serving counter. The lower tier makes a great workstation, complete with storage below and handy plug-ins between the tiers. Stainless steel appliances and sink enhance the clean lines of the kitchen. Beautiful mosaic tiles in brown, cream, and tan create the backsplash from top cabinet to countertop. True to the Woman-Centric design, large kettle drawers are just to the left of the stove, while all the drawers throughout are the quiet ‘soft-close’ variety. The custom maple cabinets have flat-panel fronts and brushed nickel hardware. Behind the kitchen is the hallway to the master bedroom and access to the garage and laundry areas. The short hallway from the garage to the main hall is an ideal example of an area to unload: a handy cabinet just inside the door holds space for mail, electronics recharging, papers, and more. The large closet nearby stores coats, boots, and other weather gear. Hidden from the hall by a pocket door is the laundry room, so dirty, outside clothes can stop before tracking into the house. Ceramic-look vinyl flooring makes for easy cleanup any time of year.

A Private Retreat

The master suite encourages relaxation. A quiet sanctuary, the bedroom’s generous size easily allows for a king-size bed. A comfortable leather chair sits by the windows overlooking the side yard. Tan silk, lined, draperies accent the windows. Above, an off-white racetrack sheetrock detail outlines the tan ceiling. Adding to the suite comfort are heated ceramic floor tiles in the bath. Two sinks separated by a large vanity and linen closet in the center ensure ample storage and great morning access. Frosted glass creates the entrance to the ceramic-tiled shower, while the toilet is discretely placed behind a pocket door. Through the bathing area is the walk-in closet. A large window provides wonderful natural light, essential for mixing and matching just the right wardrobe colors.

Lower Level Luxury

This beautiful home’s lower level is completely finished, adding another 1,413 square feet of space with nine-foot ceilings. The carpeted stairs lead directly into the open family room. Decorated for inspiration, the fully carpeted open space is an entertainment delight. The oak claw foot billiard table might entice some to try their hand at a game. The large audio/visual center might tempt someone to relax in the black leather couch or loveseat. In the matching bump out from the main floor dining area, a round game table with rolling chairs is the perfect setting for card and board games or snacks.

Two additional bedrooms and another bath on this level provide great family or guest spaces, complete with egress windows and large closets.

Delightful, inspiring, functional, and beautiful: this house in Woodhaven is just waiting to be the fulfillment of a family’s dream, or the inspiration for another home, created especially by Heritage Homes just for you.
