Blueprint For SUccess Cont’d from page 23
‘A new home should be impressive, as it is a reflection of the homeowners’ tastes and lifestyle, but at the same time a new home must be functional.’
“New homes are equipped with theatre, alarm, audio and tracking systems like never before,” she says. They also come equipped with HVAC systems, gas lines to barbecues, water lines for fridges and heated floors. Combine all that with up- graded building codes, and today’s new home will surpass the performance standards of an older home. But the benefits go beyond function. Vas- sallo says contemporary design options may include features such as a wall of windows, higher ceilings, walk-out lower levels, home gyms and wine rooms. And then there are visitable homes, which are designed for accessibility. According to Visitability Canada, a visitable home includes features such as a zero-step entrance, wider doorways on all main floor doors, and a half bath on the main floor. KDR has four gorgeous show homes in the Fall Parade of Homes, including a two-storey beauty at 186 Lake Bend Rd. in Bridgwater Lakes, a southwest Winnipeg community which features visitable homes. Two bungalows will be on display in pedestri- an-friendly Sage Creek, at 78 Silver Sage Cres. and 31 Borealis Bay. The fourth show home, another two-storey house, is located at 16 Wa- terstone Dr. in South Pointe. Although each fully landscaped show home is unique in its own respect, they have com- mon features that are frequently found in KDR homes: High ceilings, clean lines and high- quality finishes that include tile, granite and hardwoods. They also boast stunning ensuite bathrooms and oversized decks and balco- nies, along with high-efficiency gas furnaces, triple-pane windows and central air.
“All four homes come complete with walk-out basements and all four homes are built with KDR Homes’ philosophy in mind: A new home should be impressive, as it is a reflection of the homeowners’ tastes and lifestyle, but at the same time a new home must be functional,”Vassallo says. “Whichever home you choose, it will offer KDR clients the latest in design yet always place the highest commitment to quality and attention to detail.” See www.kdrhomes.com .
