The Signs of a Quality Home.

Gilcrest/Jewett Lumber Company wishes to congratulate the HBA of Greater Des Moines on HomeShowExpo 2013, and the following builders for their beautiful show homes:

Of course, to clean up your yard a bit, we could be persuaded to combine those signs into one. Maybe something like this: “Gilcrest/Jewett: We do it all.”

After a very long, cold winter, which even brought snow into

May, it is safe to say summer has FINALLY arrived.

Summertime in Iowa brings many great things including, baseball games, festivals, RAGBRAI, farmer’s markets, BBQ’s, outdoor concerts and of course the annual HomeShowExpo.

On behalf of the Home Builders Association of Greater Des Moines, I would like to welcome you to HomeShowExpo 2013. It is our goal to continue to bring you the best of the best each year, and we feel we have done it again this year.

The Chairman Matt Thompson

For this year’s expo we travel back to Bent Creek Estates nestled in the charming city of Urbandale. Our sincere gratitude goes out to the city of Urbandale for hosting a beautiful site for our HomeShowExpo 2013, and Vista Real Estate Investment Corporation for developing such a desirable location. This year ten builders will be entertaining us with their brilliant ideas and innovative designs represented in 11 spectacular homes.

The HomeShowExpo is an event designed for everyone whether you are in the market to buy or build a new home, renovate your current one or simply enjoy looking at amazing new homes.

We would like to thank our supportive sponsors, hardworking HSE committee members, the talented home builders, laborers, and volunteers. Our building community is very fortunate to have such great partners to work with to help our communities continue to grow.

Thank you all for coming to the HomeShowExpo 2013, we are grateful for your support.

Cheers!

Urbandale is pleased to host the HomeShow Expo 2013! We are

excited that the Home Builders Association of Greater Des Moines chose Urbandale as this year’s site because we are thrilled to show off our community.

Urbandale is a thriving city in the greater Des Moines metropolitan area. With a population of just over 41,000, Urbandale is the 12th largest city in Iowa. It is also one of Iowa’s fastest-growing cities.

We sit at the literal crossroads of America, with Interstates 80 and 35 combining to flow through our city. This provides tremendous access and visibility for our businesses.

The Mayor

Robert D. Andeweg City of Urbandale

We have many successful businesses that thrive in our community.

Our city, chamber of commerce and school district work closely to provide a business-friendly climate. Our strong history of fiscal discipline in Urbandale allows us to provide first-class public services and infrastructure to our businesses and residents, while still maintaining the lowest tax rate of any city in Iowa between the populations of 12,000 and 50,000.

AL

E

Y

While Urbandale is on the move, it is also a community where our residents enjoy our fantastic amenities. With over 40 miles of trails and 30 parks, Urbandale is a place where our residents can enjoy a high quality of life. Walnut Creek Regional Park is the latest gem in our park system, providing over 200 acres of park area for our residents to enjoy.

With all that we have to offer, it is no accident that Urbandale is nationally recognized. Urbandale has been consistently named one of the “100 Best Places to Live in America” by CNN/Money Magazine, and one of only FOUR cities in the ENTIRE COUNTRY that has been named to this list all FOUR times!

We hope you enjoy your time in Urbandale at the HomeShowExpo.

Our motto is “Uniquely Urbandale”, and we hope you find all the unique amenities Urbandale has to offer.

Sincerely, Robert D. Andeweg

The main living area features tall windows, detailed tray ceilings and a reclaimed wood mantel from Architectural Salvage adding unique contrast to the detailed woodwork. Double doors open to the main level master suite which boasts a free standing tub, a full tile rain shower, and his and hers closets. The kitchen features ceiling height cabinets, a large island with quartz countertops and high-end Thermador appliances. Inside the pantry is a family command center complete with a desk and magnetic chalk wall to help with organization. A second fireplace can be enjoyed in the four season room which leads to an expansive covered deck adjoined by a large outdoor open deck both featuring concrete pavers.

The large open area in the basement is ideal for entertaining with a sunken multi-media area, wet bar, and game area. A wood paneled wall lends way to the hidden wine cellar complete with a wine refrigerator and cabinets. The basement also includes two bedrooms with a private Jack-and-Jill bathroom, full exercise room, guest bath, and access to a large tuck under garage. The Savant smart home system will make it easy for the homeowner to control the security, video surveillance, temperature, and audio throughout the home.

Modern-Rustic Retreat

Justin Frampton, President Dani Frampton, Design Consultant Frampton Homes 1017 NW 3rd Ct Grimes, IA 50111 (515) 559-4443 framptonhomes.com

Frampton Homes is a family owned

and run business started in 2005 by Justin Frampton and his wife Dani.

Justin got his start as a framing and siding contractor and draws upon his working knowledge to build strong, reliable homes that will stand the test of time. Frampton Homes don’t just look good, they are solid built homes using the highest standards in quality building materials and energy code building today.

In addition to superior construction techniques and materials, Frampton Homes prides

themselves on building homes with fun, fresh designs that meet both a family’s practical needs for day to day life as well as features for entertaining your special guests.

Every detail of the home is well planned to fit each family’s unique needs, from creative kitchen designs to lighting placement and every detail in between. At Frampton Homes, the happiness of the families they serve is their priority. You work directly with Justin and Dani to create the home of your dreams.

R ustic cedar beams and columns beautifully contrast the steel gray board and batten siding to give this rustic retreat a fun modern twist.

Hand scraped flooring, knotty alder trim, and floor to ceiling stone fireplace welcome you into the home. In the kitchen, cherry cabinets are highlighted with gray and white accents, and rich quartz countertops. Top of the line appliances help make hosting any gathering a breeze. The master retreat feels a million miles away with beautiful wood ceilings, accent lighting, and a rustic barn door opening to the relaxing master bathroom with jet tub and stone shower.

The lower level of this home is truly the entertaining headquarters. The large wet bar overlooks a sunken theater room with stadium seating and beautiful theater accents. Also located off the bar is a private wine cellar complete with iron gates and a game room.

Just down the hall you will find a secluded guest bedroom and bathroom and a large personal home gym. Geothermal, whole home audio system, and many other latest technology features make this home not only beautiful, but smart as well.

President Kirk Mickelsen has been in the home construction business for more than two decades, and his passion for homebuilding has helped build an organization that shares the same passion. They love what they do, and they work to make sure their customers feel the same way.

Upgrades continue throughout the home, like the built-in lockers in the mud room, the 8-foot doors on the main level, and the luxurious master suite, with cove ceilings, gorgeous trim work, and a walkin tile shower in the bath. The lower level reveals the same attention to detail, with custom touches from a sliding barn door accessing the theater room, to a large wet bar with stainless steel appliances.

And KRM has extended the craftsmanship outside as well. A large deck off the dining room expands the livable area of the home, and the mix of stone, shingles, and HardiPlank siding on the exterior enhance its architectural features.

ractical Elegance best describes this Transitional Prairie-Style home built by Ironwood Homes.

This 1 ½ Story plan features the perfect blend of comfortable family living and grand spaces for entertaining. Striking painted woodwork with warm gray tones fills the main levels, drawing attention to the richly stained kitchen cabinetry.

Plenty of light fills all rooms of the home from every angle.

Bill Knapp III Jon Sieck Ironwood Homes, Inc. 3775 EP True Pkwy, Ste 268 West Des Moines, IA 50265 (515) 202-9911 www.ironwoodiowa.com

ill Knapp III and Jon Sieck formed B Ironwood Homes in 2008 at the height of the economic recession.

With a combined 25 years of experience in the real estate and new construction industry, they quickly grew in to one of the area’s most sought after homebuilders.

Jon and Bill are hands-on with each individual customer, walking them through the entire process from start to finish. They feel strongly that the communication process

and customer service they provide is just as important as the quality of their construction. Jon and Bill have developed long lasting relationships with all of their subcontractors and vendors, which assures consistency in their products in each and every home. They strive to build the highest quality homes, tailored to your style and tastes, while providing you the highest level of communication that you would expect during the entire building process.

Transport yourself to the lower level where you will find elegantly stained custom woodwork. There is plenty of room at the bar for entertaining, or in the sunken family room for warm and cozy living.

Relax in the custom home theater, complete with the latest technology available. Outdoor living is essential, so we created a custom stamped concrete patio with a gas fire pit for cool fall evenings. Exercise room, heated 4 car garage and workshop are just a few of the many amenities that make this home a retreat. This custom home will bring a family lasting joy and comfort, and its style and features will stay current for many years to come.
