While most homebuilders are trying to find ways to beat the odds in a depressed housing market, some are now doing it one home at a time. These builders are getting creative by using salvaged and new materials that echo the past. The results are great as brand new 100 year old homes. They capture the beauty, charm and character of the early 1900’s without the hassle and maintenance that usually relate to older homes.

These vintage-style homes boast old banisters, mantels, claw footed tubs, wide-plank floors, clapboard siding, iron radiators, and reclaimed barn beams. All homes are appointed with modern conveniences, such as automated security systems and whole house audio systems, giving the term “shabby chic” new meaning.

This creative homebuilding just goes to show that they can build them like they used to; now only better. So when you need an old/new home, contact me or visit www.bonnieaugostino.com
