Concord Crossing

I'm loving this Colonial/ Cottage type home. It's very simple and deceiving in it's appearance. It looks like a rancher but yet it's a 2 story, open-spaced home. Designed by Wm. Brian Jernigan, Inc. and in the January issue of Southern Living just click HERE for more details. Here's a few things why I would like to build this home:
  • spacious but not wasted space
  • a beautiful majestic stairway is nice in the foyer but I like it best when it's in a more reasonable area close to traffic, plus I hate opening my front door and practically greeting people up my stairs, I really like it here in the family room
  • who needs a formal living area? a study's much better
  • you can't see the kitchen from the entry and the kitchen is out of the way of the flow of traffic it's by the garage where it needs to be
  • I really like the separate breakfast room but it is kind of far from the stairs
  • the laundry room is not near the kitchen...it's a miracle!!!! unfortunately it's downstairs but still near the stairs, a great bum workout
  • I love the upstairs, simple, straight to the point, large rooms, no long hallways, makes vacuuming so much easier
  • porches everywhere
  • big garage

Oh, someday.
