FROM THE EDITOR
HOMES FOR LIVING For each of us there is a transformation that takes place when we buy a home that stimulates our creativity and imagination. Whether it is our first home or one of many throughout life that we have acquired, it is the same. It is the beginning of a quest for creative expression and individuality to make that home our own. In the past, it was common for families to live for decades in the same home, adding updates and additions as needed. It was not uncommon for a single home to be lived in by two or three generations in the same family. New homes today are vastly different from their counterparts of years gone by. Today’s homes are designed and constructed utilizing high-tech products that work together to provide ergonomic planning and maximum efficiency for family living. Home buyers today want convenient house plan designs that help them stay organized, allow them to live comfortably through all stages in life, and keep utility costs low. More importantly, buyers are looking for homes that don’t require much work on their end. A trend that is gaining traction everywhere is “larger is not better”. Homes are becoming smaller with flex space that can be transformed as families grow and evolve. Builders are offering better planned homes with smaller more manageable designs that are more functional, more affordable and easier to maintain. In the past new home buyers often preferred minimal landscape and finishes in a home. Buyers today are looking for a complete move in ready home, inside and out, including full landscaping. Older homes have become popular with first time homebuyers who see value in home ownership and are willing to put the time and money into improvements. Home buyers are the lifeblood that drives our country’s economic machine. It also provides each and every one of us an opportunity to create a center for our own personal preferences.

Five Great Regions for Living South of Boston
South Shore/South Coast Over the last 10 years, Massachusetts has been the fastest growing state in the northeast corridor. In the Donahue Study produced by The University of Massachusetts, the state is projected to grow 10-15%, to nearly 7.5 million by 2030. Eastern Massachusetts, which is home to nearly 75% of the state’s residents is seeing most of the impact of this growth. Real estate trends in the region are showing that greater Boston home prices have grown immensely over the last 3 years. Median home prices in Boston are now approaching $700,000 with metro markets not far behind. Fortunately for homebuyers, the Eastern Massachusetts region offers some of the most diverse choices for living in the South Shore and
#HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE
Southeast regions and are far more affordable. From the South Shore to the Southeast there are unlimited choices from small-city and town living to spectacular waterfront communities and rural country as well. Future expansion in rail access and infrastructure improvements have made commuting a bit more bearable overall. The trade-off is well worth the value, and quality of life issues are becoming paramount to many. Here are a few of our favorite regions and communities South of Boston. We hope you get out to see what each has to offer.

Cohasset Harbor
Cohasett Village, Coldwell Banker, Kristen Rosebach
Hingham Harbor
Hingham, Compass, Kevin Lewis
Hingham / Cohasset - Plymouth & Norfolk County At the southern tip of Boston Harbor along Mass Bay, just 20 miles from Boston sits Hingham and Cohasset on a coastal neck along the northern tip of the South Shore. Hingham and Cohasset have the charm of the typical New England town with a rich history, quaint downtown shops, classic historic homes, steepled churches, tree-lined main streets, sandy beaches, great schools, open spaces and parks, and a wide range of home styles. Cohasset and Hingham both have median home prices of over $800,000, but this is coastal living at its best in the metro-Boston market with a short commute of under 40 minutes or water shuttle to downtown in just over 30 minutes.
#HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE

NEHOMELIFE.COM
Marshfield / Duxbury - Plymouth County Along the Central South Shore region, Marshfield and Duxbury have become very popular coastal communities. Duxbury is largely defined by its coastline. Its 7.5-mile-long barrier beach extends from Marshfield in the north to Gurnet Point and Saquish in the south. In addition to soaking up the sun, beachgoers can walk, bird-watch, go clamming, barbecue, picnic, and engage in various sporting activities, such as sailing, snorkeling, and even surfing. Both communities enjoy extensive seaside amenities, waterfront and water view homes as well as, rural country homes. This is quintessential coastal South Shore living at its best. These communities are 30 miles from Boston which is relatively a short commute. Median home prices-Marshfield $450,000 and Duxbury $600,000

Marion Bird Island Lighthouse
Marion, Converse Company, Margot Feeney Kalkanis
Marion / Mattapoisett - Plymouth County One of the most pristine regions of Coastal Massachusetts is along Buzzards Bay from just east of Cape Cod. This 15-mile stretch along the shore may be one of the best kept secrets in New England. The small rural towns of Marion and Mattapoisett are coastal, historic communities that have changed very little over time. You will not find the traffic, the tourist or the development that you would find on the Cape. What you will find is amazing coastal living with close proximity to all major markets in a relaxed and local atmosphere. The region is just 60 miles from Boston and you’ll find some of the region’s most pristine coastal homes, country clubs and golf communities. Median home prices - $450,000 to $500,000s
Pease’s Point Mattapoisett, MA
Mattapoisett, Coldwell Banker, Maryann Hayes
Padanaram South Dartmouth Harbor
South Dartmouth, Anne Whitting RE
Westport Harbor
Westport, Landvest, Terry Boyle
South Dartmouth / Westport - Bristol County The coastal communities of South Dartmouth and Westport are on Buzzards Bay overlooking the Elizabeth Islands and Martha’s Vineyard. The quaint New England charm and historic character of both make them popular for year-round residents and summer homes as well. The quaint charm and elegance of Padanaram in South Dartmouth can be seen in the grand homes that look out over the harbor, as well as the quiet streets and the salty waterfront ambiance. The region is part of Southern New England’s Farm Coast and Coastal Wine Trail, and also home to some of the finest state beaches in New England.In Westport Point and Westport Harbor you will find stately historic year-round and summer homes with dramatic ocean views. The region is 65 miles south of Boston. Median home prices - $400,000 to $500,000s.

Rehoboth Inner River
Rehoboth, Mello Group, Jennifer Mello
Rehoboth / Seekonk - Bristol County In West Bristol County both Rehoboth and Seekonk are very popular communities for those who work in Boston and Providence, RI. Seekonk which borders Rhode Island, is separated north and south by Interstate 95. Extensive new home development has made Seekonk a popular choice as a bedroom community. Open spaces, parks, golf courses and as easy access to rail, highway and airports make commuting and travel easy.

Natural Stone:
The Original Building Material THE MOST POPULAR NEW BUILDING MATERIAL MAKES THE MOST SENSE
Building material suppliers and manufacturers of the last 100 years have introduced countless innovations in wood, concrete, block, plastic, metal, aggregate and many other building products and materials for use in indoor and outdoor building solutions. It seems almost yearly there is some new amazing material that outlasts and outperforms and is the newest craze. Most of these products are expensive, contribute greatly to our environmental footprint and in the long run require replacement or repair over time. There is only one building material that outperforms, outlasts and is the most permanent solution in building and construction and that quite simply is the oldest, Stone!
Natural Stone Stone is immensely popular, partly because it has countless applications.

The Best Harbor contest kicked off in January with 1,278 harbors across 23 states. During the nomination phase readers of US Harbors narrowed down the list of eligible harbors leaving 90 across the US. Every harbor received votes but only Padanaram/South Dartmouth received hundreds of votes, comments, pictures and suggestions. Community residents shared the contest via email, social media and word of mouth and ran a formidable grass roots campaign. ABOUT PADANARAM SOUTH DARTMOUTH, MA Padanaram is
a charming village in the town of South Dartmouth, lying along the Apponagansett River. In the mid eighteenth century, Padanaram became a shipbuilding center because of its fine harbor, a tradition that continues today as the area boasts many fine craftsmen who are experts in building and maintaining boats. The village is also home to the New Bedford Yacht Club, which bi-annually hosts the Buzzards Bay Regatta. Additionally, the village hosts many other interesting businesses, galleries, and specialty shops. NEHOMELIFE.COM
Should You Buy A Home Warranty? There can be no doubt that a home warranty can help you sell a house faster for what is essentially a rather small fee. However, you shouldn’t forget that just any warranty won’t do. If you aim to impress, you need to choose the best one, and that is when reviews of home warranty companies servicing Massachusetts will come in handy. Studying independent professional reviews of the top warranty providers will help you understand which of these companies can be trusted and which offer more benefits. Note that leading warranty providers offer specialized deals to home sellers and real estate agents. At the moment, the best home warranty providers in Massachusetts are Select, Choice, Total Home Protection, Pride Home Warranty, and HomeServe. Each of these has its own pros and cons, so you should study their terms and see how those apply to the property you are trying to sell. Buying a home warranty should definitely go on your list of presale prep. Put it right up there with fixing the common property problems, which make a home

harder to sell. Don’t forget about home inspections as well. Reports from reputed inspectors, which state that the house is as safe as can be, impress prospective buyers. They can also help you get a better deal on home warranty and insurance premiums. Bear in mind that home warranties don’t offer any real protection for very old or damaged systems and appliances. However, they are an excellent tool for new additions to the property. As adding those can up its value and chances for making a quick sale, consider including a few new appliances and making home system upgrades to maximize the value of the home. In this case, a home warranty will prove to be a valuable tool.

There has been a lot written about millennials and their preference to live in city centers above their favorite pizza place. Some have even gone so far as to say that millennials are a “Renter-Generation”. And while this might be true for some millennials, more and more research has surfaced that shows for the vast majority, owning a home is a major part of their American Dream! New research shows that 66%
of millennials who currently rent are determined to buy a home! Seventy-three percent of those surveyed by Pulsenomics plan to buy a home in the next five years, with 40% planning to do so within the next two years! “Millennials want to own a home as much as prior generations,” Ali Wolf, Director of Economic Research at Meyers Research says. “We saw millennial shoppers scooping up homes in 2018—and 2019 will be no different.”

What’s the best flooring to boost your home’s resale value? Whether you’re selling your place or are just thinking about replacing what’s under your feet with something shiny and new, you’ll want to carefully consider which type of flooring you pick. Because flooring matters—a lot. In fact, some experts believe it may be the single biggest factor when it comes to your return on investment (ROI). Flooring matters tremendously when selling a home, It immediately influences if the buyer will like the house as they walk into every room and hallway, kitchen,
and even exterior patio. “Most buyers expect to see hardwood floors, at least in the main areas,” says Ted Moore, a builder at Little Harbor Homes in Marblehead, MA. “Carpet, unless brand-new, can raise questions about its cleanliness and durability, and these days, just feels dated.” In some cases, however, carpet may be a worthwhile investment. Since installing carpet is relatively cheap, it can be a good option for sellers looking to spend little to spruce up their home. Whether its wood, tile or carpet, be sure to base your decision on the home Portland, ME and its overall market value.

Golf Course Living IN NEW ENGLAND
New England golf is unique because we get to enjoy different seasons and a host of ever-changing playing conditions. While summer conditions are everyone’s favorite, spring and fall golf can be spectacular in the Northeast. Living on a golf course or adjacent to a golf course offers much more of an opportunity to enjoy the facilities. Membership in a golf club provides the opportunity to play more golf and enjoy the club amenities with family and friends. Proximity is the most critical factor to us all, the closer we are to our club the better. When you live on a golf course or in a golf course community it is so much easier to make time to play. No fighting traffic to get to the club, no need to carve out multiple hours to play or go hit balls, and if you get tired and want to quit mid-way through the round, just

drive right up to your backyard and you are home. There are so many wonderful advantages to living on a golf course or in a golf course community. Beyond the obvious, living in a golf course community comes with some distinct advantages such as heightened and stable property values, wide-open green spaces for living and better overall security and privacy as well. Also, not surprisingly, there are the extremely low levels of criminal activity in golf course communities. Many communities that are gated or feature a guarded entryway can monitor all traffic in and out. A home on a golf course combines private golf course membership with the lifestyle of living in a golf course community. Golf courses encompass hundreds of acres of open space in park-like settings offering extensive living ame-

nities and accessible open space for recreation and enjoyment. Once mostly viewed as retirement living, golf course communities have now evolved into wonderful amenity-rich communities that offer owners a lifestyle unmatched by any other. Why wait until retirement to enjoy the ultimate living experience? What better place to live, raise a family and enjoy life than in a private golf course community. Today, more and more home buyers are seeking enriched living communities for both primary and secondary living. Today, developers and communities offer golf community living in New England and throughout the country. In this issue we have chosen a wide variety of active listings for sale throughout the region. Each home listed is either in a golf course community or adjacent to the golf course.

Britts Best Bites homemade pasta truly pulls on my heart strings, and this pasta surpasses any standard I could have had (sorry, family!). As soon as it’s available, run, don’t walk, to Alma Nove to give it a taste. You won’t regret it. Next, Chef Paul Wahlberg brought out some entrees, one of which is on their current menu, and another that will be served later this spring. On the current menu, the Pan Seared Atlantic Salmon was served on top of black rice with chiffonade Tuscan kale, lobster crema and a spiced carrot yogurt to top it off. When Alma Nove says they get seafood fresh off the boat – they are not exaggerating. This salmon was extremely fresh and impeccably seasoned. For all seafood lovers out there, this dish is heavenly. Adding to the future spring specials, duck was served with pickled strawberries and a balsamic drizzle, over Tuscan kale and pea risotto. This succulent duck is an absolute must-try, with a unique, sweet taste that was excellently prepared. The Tuscan kale and pea risotto created the best, most flavorful combination and was outstanding. While we enjoyed our entrees, we were served some hand-crafted cocktails from the bar. First came the Strawberry Wallop, which was strawberry infused with half vodka and half gin, St. Germain Liqueur, fresh lemon as well as peychods. Like many girls in their 20s, I enjoy a fruity cocktail, and this one blew me away. The next cocktail served was a House Infused Bacardi with lime and oranges, orange juice, cranberry juice and pineapple juice, topped with dark Bacardi. This drink was served in a trendy tiki glass with an edible flower on top. If it hadn’t
