Home
If you can imagine it,
you can build it
By Wendy King
>> A custom home is the house of your dreams.
You want to wake up and say "wow" every day.
There are all sorts of ways to get that "wow" but
the first rule is a good design at the outset. We've
rounded up some sweet features builders includ-
ing Parkhill, Artista and Huntington Homes have
already incorporated into Winnipeg abodes.
So go ahead, make your dream list. Think big.
Then talk to your custom home builder and go
from dream to reality. Whether your idea is a little
luxury or an outright extravagance, it all adds up
to comfort and joy — and wow.
1. Glittering Garage Doors
Glass panel doors will let you show off your four-wheeled baby
while protecting it from the elements. Want privacy? Then you
might take a shine to an idea from Huntington Homes — custom
copper doors.
2. Custom Swimming Pool
Take the sharp edges off with a curvy custom-designed swimming
pool. The fluid lines can follow the shape of the yard and the clear
water invites you in for a cooling daytime paddle. In the evening,
lighted streams of water from laminar jets create a spectacular
show.
3. Putting Green with Sand Trap
Perfect your putt and refine your chip shot as you play through all
four holes and swing your way out of a pristine white sand trap.
