GLAMOUR (336-110) Living Space: 2,045 SF

Glamour The 2,045 square foot Glamour (336-110) could be an excellent choice for a young family wishing to purchase a home with a little more space for growing children. This can also be a great buy for empty nesters that still need room for returning college students and other overnight guests. The Glamour has an attractive exterior of easy to care for lap siding, topped by a long lasting shake roof. The two-car garage with storage shelves, side entrance and built-in workbench for the hobby enthusiast has a frontal entrance. A covered porch, with waist-high railing is a welcome sight to visitors, and a great place to relax on warm summer evenings. Step into the entry of the Glamour and the openness of the floor design becomes evident. Immediately to the left of the entry is the vaulted living room. The U-shaped kitchen has been placed in a position that the cook in the household will surely appreciate. Equipped with an island recycling center, garden window, eating bar and walk-in pantry, meals can be easily prepared and served in either the adjoining breakfast nook or the nearby dining room. The rear of the walk-in pantry opens to a convenient utility room with access to the garage. The isolated master suite features many amenities not usually found in a house this size. Among them are a big walk-in closet, security system and private bathroom with skylight, separate tub and shower, twin basin and personal access to the back deck. The other sleeping quarters, on the opposite side of the Glamour, consist of a large front bedroom and a smaller back one. A full bathroom divides them. Completing the floor plan is a guest room/ home office with plenty of closet space and a private deck that is covered for protection from the weather. Because of the enormous length of this home, two water heaters have been placed to provide ample hot water throughout the home.

This plan courtesy of Landmark Designs Inc. www.ldiplans.com HOW TO ORDER Study Kit: Send $25 to Landmark Designs Inc., P.O. Box 5625, Eugene, OR 97405. Include the plan number (336-110) and that you saw it in the Daily Press.

attractive to many buyers, and that’s something all buyers should consider before buying a home. Even if you prefer a home in a remote location, that could limit your market of buyers when you want to sell the home down the road. While your own comfort and preferences should ultimately prevail over potential resale value, it’s important that you at least consider access to amenities before making a decision. You might be able to find a compromise in a home that is a short drive away from a town center, but still remote enough that you are not in the middle of the hustle and bustle.

When shopping for a home, it’s easy for buyers to fall in love with a property. A wellmaintained home with updated features can be hard to resist, but buyers must consider more than just a home’s appearance before submitting an offer. One variable prospective home buyers tend to value more highly than others is the neighborhood where they will ultimately choose to live. Many buyers even value neighborhoods more than homes, feeling they can always fix a home but cannot necessarily fix an undesirable neighborhood. When considering which neighborhood to begin a home search, buyers should research a host of factors.

Crime Crime statistics are public domain, meaning buyers can examine crime figures for any neighborhood where they are considering buying a home. Some real estate websites list neighborhood crime ratings among the information they offer about a given property. In addition, buyers interested in learning about crime in a given neighborhood can visit a site such as CrimeReports. com to access data on crimes committed near a particular address.

Home values Home values are another factor to consider when choosing a neighborhood in which to buy a home.

Commute

Buyers can work with a local realtor to find a neighborhood or area where real estate prices are trending upwards. While buyers might be able to find a great deal on a home in a neighborhood where home prices are dropping, it’s important to remember those home prices are dropping for a reason. Work with your realtor to find a neighborhood where you can afford a home and where property values are not in decline. Realtors will have access to recent sales figures so you can get an idea of whether a neighborhood is trending upward or in decline.

Amenities The proximity of amenities such as shopping, restaurants and parks is

Quality of life is heavily influenced by commute time. Many men and women feel their quality of life improves dramatically the shorter their daily commute is. When considering a particular neighborhood, do a test run before making an offer on a home. Wake up early and drive to the area where you are thinking of buying, and then commute from there during rush hour. Also, do the reverse commute come quitting time. You might be able to get an estimated commute time online, but a test run can give you a more accurate idea of what your daily trips to and from the office will be like. Choosing a neighborhood where you will enjoy living requires some forethought and research. TF15C697

Did you know?

According to the National Association of Realtors® 2015 Profile of Home Staging, 49 percent of realtors representing buyers say home staging impacts most buyers’ final decisions. Home staging is the act of preparing a home for sale by presenting it in such a way as to appeal to as many potential buyers as possible. Professional staging firms often address

a home’s interior to reduce clutter and rearrange furniture with a goal toward making a strong impression on prospective buyers during open house events or private showings. The NAR Profile found that the living room is the most important room to stage followed by the kitchen and the master bedroom. Eighty-one percent of realtors said

staged homes make it easier for prospective buyers to visualize properties as their future homes. In addition, 10 percent of realtors said homes decorated against buyers’ tastes will negatively impact the homes’ values, further emphasizing the potential benefit of staging homes rather than showcasing existing homeowners’ personal preferences.

way. Weave a colorful ribbon along the banister of your staircase or a blank wall and use clips or clothespins to string them throughout. When guests come over, they’ll love seeing themselves featured in your display.

Balance your color palette While bright red and green tend to be the favored holiday hues, this color scheme isn’t for everyone. If you find yourself shying away from these colors, opt for metallic tones like silver, gold and bronze. These shades bring warmth and cheer to a room without taking away from your existing décor.

Dazzle with lights

Restyle your shelves If the shelves in your living or dining room are full of books and baskets the rest of the year, take a moment to declutter. Stash those everyday items away and replace them with elegant holiday décor like pretty dishes, serving pieces or china you’re not already using on the dinner table. You can also sneak in pops of color with ornaments and sprigs of pine.

Whether you’re planning an extravagant party or simply hosting a few family members, the stress of the holiday season can easily become overwhelming. With your busy schedule and

full to-do list, the key to successful entertaining is to keep it simple. If you’re like most people, you’re probably breaking out your traditional holiday decorations

— but why not take it up a notch this year? Here are some easy ideas to instantly rejuvenate your home, wow your guests and create a welcoming environment:

Wow your guests with new window treatments Dressing up your windows is an easy way to give a room a fresh look, just in time for company to arrive. Consider motorized window coverings for comfort and convenience,

as well as energy savings. Your holiday budget will appreciate it year after year. Combined with timers and sensors, your draperies and blinds will adjust automatically, while you enjoy your company. With the myLink™ app from Somfy, you can use your tablet or smartphone to control your window treatments while at home or away. Create the perfect sunrise or sunset scenery with a built in clock that adjusts daily, optimizing the natural light in your home. For more information on motorization, visit somfysystems.com.

Create a cheerful greeting display Don’t just stuff all those holiday cards in a drawer or basket — show off your favorites in a festive

Less is more when it comes to sophisticated holiday lights. If you tend to have more guests to your home during the holidays, it’s important to keep your walkways and paths brightly lit, especially if you’re in an icy climate. Spread a few strands of lights along the shrubs or smaller trees that line the path up to your front door to guide your guests safely into your home.

Bring warmth with a fancy fireplace A fireplace is the finishing touch to a cozy winter living room scene. Not only does it add warmth, it also creates an alluring and inviting environment. An insert fireplace is a great addition to your home, whether you want to build new or replace your current fireplace for a more energy efficient option. Dress your home to impress this holiday season. These décor tips will have your guests in awe the moment they walk through the door.
