Journey to Dream Homes

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!
