Journey to Dream Homes

For some reason during the last few months, I had several water leakage problems at my personal home and my office that made me wonder, what does this all mean?  Thinking positively from a perspective of water providing calming and soothing effects, I ask: Is it perhaps telling me how smooth of a year I will have in 2010 building many homes for my clients where they live happily with their loved ones?

Water provides the tranquility in life. In essence, water carries the life energy throughout the world. We harness this life energy to enrich our environment and to create balance as well as harmony within our lives.  

As we travel on this journey to dream homes, let us include the life of energy, the harmony and the balance into our environment. As you are dreaming of that home, one other aspect to remember is the location. I know you have a picture in your mind; you see your house, not floating in midair, but on some specific site. It may sit on top of a hill, it may be near the ocean, it may be in the woods or it may be in a private quality neighborhood in your favorite town.

We have to place your dream on an actual lot that suits your needs and resembles your dreams. You may want a nice garden. You may want a quiet neighborhood with tall trees, or just small ferns. You may want the privacy of a secluded cul-de-sac lot or a lake view might be a high priority for you.

Here are a couple of lots that we have at SilverCrest Homes that might help you visualize that dream. The first lot has a lake view, it will bring the life energy to your house as you wake up to the still body of water.

 The second lot will allow you to have the option of building a house with a full  day light basement if you would like.

As you look over these lots, I want you to ask yourself “how does this make me feel?” Can you see yourself spending the best years of your life here? If yes, give us a call at SilverCrest Homes and we can turn that dream into a reality! These lots are located in the Renaissance at Regency neighborhood.

Renaissance at Regency is located in Cary, off Ederlee Drive and Regency Parkway in the lush Regency Park area – minutes from an array of shopping, medical facilities and recreational activities, including Koka Booth Amphitheatre on Symphony Lake and the new state-of-the-art Lifetime Fitness Health Club.

Today is the first day of 2010. We have started not only a new year but also a new decade. My expectations for this year are, hopefully like your own, very high. I had a tough year last year and I suspect most of you had a very hard year as well, but finally it is over. We can all look forward to a new beginning. I have a feeling 2010 will be a much better year, in fact a great year for all of us.

With that thought in mind and with all the other resolutions you may have made, let’s continue our journey to that lovely home of yours that is to become a reality in 2010.

I posed a number of questions to you in our last blog, so I hope you all now have a good idea of some of the features of your dream home in terms of the look of the house, the number of bedrooms you want, formal and casual living spaces, the master bedroom suite with all the special areas you need to spoil yourself, the fireplaces including the specific types, the layout of the house so your kids (or spouse) can run around, the landscape as well as hard surfaces around the house, and more.

Now what, you are asking yourself, I started dreaming about it, I have a picture in my mind, now what do we do?  

Well, the next step is to put what’s on your mind on to paper. That’s where SilverCrest comes in. We will get together with an architect and a designer to help us with that process. First, we will start with a simple sketch just to see everything on paper. Then, you’ll begin to understand you’d rather have your kitchen where that keeping room is and it doesn’t make sense to put your master bedroom next to the garage. Similarly the entire house–the rooms, walls, windows, doors, fireplaces, sinks, bathrooms—will be reworked until it takes the shape you love, until it is the same image on paper as it was in your mind.  Most importantly, this process will shape your creative ideas, your imagination, your desires and your wishes into an exclusive and fabulous home of your dreams. This is the wonderful process.

We at SilverCrest Homes, can help you not only with this process but also in making that dream home turn into a reality. We work with local architects and interior designers who share our vision and determination to help you. It may seem overwhelming but give us a call and we’ll show you this is not only a fun but also a rewarding process. We can’t wait to work with you!
