Green Home Tour :: The Chamborde in Carrie’s Reach, Raleigh

Comments 0 Comment

The Chamborde is one of the first available homes in Homes by Dickerson’s newest exclusive community in North Raleigh, Carrie’s Reach. One acre wooded homesites surround these beautiful custom homes.   With only 17 homes sites available just minutes from 540 and Hwy 98 these are sure to sell quickly.

There is much to love about the design of the Chamborde.  A welcoming front porch, a large gourmet kitchen is great for entertaining and is open to the family room, breakfast nook and keeping room are just starters.  First floor guest suite also has its own entrance.  Mudroom offers 2 banks of lockers and a drop zone.  Large finished bonus room and a flex room upstairs would be great for an exercise or craft room.  Walk-up third floor attic is perfect for storage or could be finished off for even more space.  The Master Suite offers a beautiful trey ceiling, walk-in closet and master bathroom with double vanities, shower and garden tub.

The Chamborde is featured on the Green Home Tour happening in April.  Be sure to stop by and learn about how all of our high performance green features work together to make our homes more energy efficient.  These features create a more comfortable and durable home, save our homeowners money and lessen the impact on the environment.  Around the home you will find tent cards that point out all the features in the home that work together to obtain the green certification points necessary to get the Energy Star Certifications and the NAHB Research Center Certifications.

We all stopped on Thursday morning to celebrate hitting 100 sales year to date in 2012.  What better way to celebrate than with cake!  This was a first milestone in our companies history and one that has been achieved by a lot of hard work from everyone on our team and one that should not be taken lightly.  We cherish each and every family worked with and home sold.  We look forward to two more months in the year to see if we can double our sales from 2011.

 

Thank you to all of our buyers, homeowners and REALTORs that we work with to make this possible.  We value the partnership in the creation of the homes that we build.  We never seem to build the same home twice and you can see from our online galleries and virtual tours that our homes take on the personal touches of our buyers.   All of our homes are built with high performance green features and the finishes selected are between the buyers and our design coordinators.   Our new design center that opened in March of this year has certainly attributed to our success as well and has been a great tool.  Having more space to be able to work within and the ability to demonstrate so much of what we can put into the homes creates a much smoothier process and visualization for our buyers.

So Cheers!  We look forward to building and selling many more great homes this year and for years to come!

#12 | Homes by Dickerson on list of Top Triangle Residential Builders

We were excited to see that Homes by Dickerson ranked #12 on the list of Top Triangle Residential Builders, ranked by the Triangle Business Journal.   This ranking was by the dollar volume of Triangle new home contracts closed in 2011.  Homes by Dickerson came in at #13 the year prior and we are anticipate a jump to a higher ranking once this year wraps up.

Homes by Dickerson has been able to double the size of our business over the last couple of years, which is a huge achievement considering the downturn of the economy.   We are thankful to our many clients and buyers who saw the quality in our homes and wanted to work and build with us.  Our dedicated team of professionals works hard to make every sale possible and meet the needs and lifestyle of the buyers we work with.  We make sure to position ourselves in the best communities in desirable locations with features that customers are looking for.  We are always looking for better ways to build our homes and in 2009 made a company wide commitment to begin building all of our homes green certified with both Energy Star and NAHB Green Certifications.   In spring of this year we opened our brand new design center and showroom to enhance our customer experience and accomodate our growing company.

Homes by Dickerson is currently building high performance green certified new homes in Heritage Wake Forest, Stonehenge Park, George’s Grant, the Hampton’s at Umstead, Copperleaf, Carrie’s Reach, and Briar Chapel in Chapel Hill.  HBD has also launched a Build on Your Own Lot program to fit your needs if one of our locations does not.  For more information on our homes and communities, visit www.HomesbyDickerson.com or email info@homesbydickerson.com or call 919-847-4447
