Home Is Where Mom Is

by

No matter what stage you are in, in Motherhood, being a mom is hard work. Whether your littles are 30 years old or 3 years old, Moms have been the center of the home.

So, what about the different types of mom’s? – The mom that loves to cook, or the neat freak mom, the “mom boss”, whatever type of mom you are there are so many different things to think about when building your new home to suit your “mom lifestyle”. We picked 3 different types of mom’s that maybe you can relate to and different ideas when it comes to building a home to suit your lifestyle.

For the Empty Nester:

Kids are grown and out of the home. Maybe, you are looking to downsize or have grandchildren. Whatever kind of empty nester you are when building your new home here are some things to consider:

Do you need extra space for visitors? – Whether the grand kids come to stay, or you have your grown kiddos stay. Think about any extra bedrooms and a floor plan that maybe allows for that extra space for guests.

Or maybe you want a floor plan with all main level living? Look at different slab-on grade plans that are low maintenance.

Turn a bedroom into a closet, have that space you always dreamed of for your hobbies, clothing, trinkets or whatever you want!

For the Neat Freak:

No matter what stage you are in this neat freak stage maybe kicked in before motherhood or afterwards, either way it doesn’t matter. When it comes to building your home there are things you can do within your floor plan to make sure those messes can be tidy and organized!

Think about different storage options, maybe invest in an over-sized mudroom with built in- lockers to keep the family organized.

This can trickle throughout the home whether it’s additional pantry storage, or a built- in buffet in the dining area to keep all those platters and items that may not fit within the kitchen cabinetry.

For the Chef:

The kitchen can be the heart of the home and if you are a mom that loves to cook this room in the home is especially important! When building think about what kind of counter space you want. Maybe, consider an over-sized island, or a pot filler for ease of access to the stove.  Pantry space, custom niches or open shelving to display cookbooks or dishes the options are endless!


Need more ideas? Head on out to our Open Houses every Sunday  to get inspired! This is a great opportunity to hone in on what is important to you and what you want in your home to fit your lifestyle. Happy home building mamma’s!

 

Making the move- Top 3 reasons to build

by

“There’s no place like home” and no better time to build your dream home with Thomsen Homes! Here are the top 3 reasons why so many home buyers prefer new construction homes:

Design your dream home your way

Why settle? You work hard, and home ownership is such a milestone in a person’s life, so why settle for someone else’s taste and why not have the option to make your own choices when it comes to your new home. New construction you can pick out everything from the counter tops, to paint color, appliances, flooring and so much more, you call the shots and design the home how you want it. This is your opportunity to reflect your style and your very own taste. At Thomsen Homes our Design Team will help guide you and explore all the different options you can pick from to build your new home!

Choose a floor plan that meets your needs

Want a large mudroom? Want an over sized island in your kitchen? Or maybe a large master suite with a big walk-in closet? Having the flexibility to pick a floor plan and personalize it the way you live and fits for your family is a huge perk of building a new home. You have options and can accommodate to what fits your needs and wants when it comes to building a new home. Choose from a variety of our different floor plans and personalize them in your own way to make the home fit your needs.

That new home feel

You know that feeling when you get a new car and that “New car smell” everything is clean and shiny, it’s awesome! Well, building a new home you can get that same feeling but better! An existing home won’t be quite the same feeling when you walk in, like that carpet you would want to replace or that stained counter top that you can’t scrub off, that home was someone else’s dream, not yours.

Building a new home and new construction you have that luxury of that never been lived-in feel. A new home can provide a care-free lifestyle so you don’t have to worry about fixing up anything and just enjoy this new home that you worked hard on to build for you and your family.
