Home Sweet Home-A-Rama

Home-A-Rama is an exciting showcase where dream houses really do come true. We proudly partnered with Old Town Properties for another successful long-distance building project for this year’s show. Owners Jim and Maureen currently reside in Chicago but look forward to a happy retirement spent with grandchildren among great views in Central Indiana’s esteemed Chatham Hills golf community.

Home Highlights

John and Maureen picked a stunning lot adjacent to golf hole #11 with stunning views, so bringing the outside in and the inside out was a focus in building a naturally blended design. We opted for a neutral color palette including tone on tone off-white matte walls contrasted with semi-gloss off-white trim. Natural materials are also featured creating a refined yet comfortable design. Expansive outdoor living spaces include a covered porch, balcony lounge, and a firepit area offering three unique areas to entertain outdoors. Custom fitted track roller screens make the covered porch area a pleasant place to relax despite sun glare and buggy nights.

This home offers the best of both worlds pairing transitional design features with today’s tech-savvy installations. Synced smartphone and tablet app operated lighting, security, window blinds, and audio yield easy and efficient living. Personalized smart shower controls for water temperature and automated water softener salt level alerts are part of this home’s premier plumbing package. LED bulbs and dimmers put a spotlight on energy savings.

Long-Distance Design

This is Jim and Maureen’s second build with Old Town Properties and Everything Home — a testament to the smooth success of our long-distance design process. We know our clients’ time is valuable so we make every phone call, meeting, and vendor visit a meaningful experience. In as little as three in-person “touch and feel” meetings we are able to achieve whole-home interior design. During our first meeting we cover mechanical selections including the exterior, plumbing, and lighting features. Our second meeting explores the interior including cabinetry, countertops, floors, and trims. During a third meeting we finalize paint color palettes and furnishings. Most other details can be addressed long-distance saving time and travel. Whether you are near or far, we help you every step of the way in achieving your dream design.
