New Home Pick of the Week goes GREEN: Jodi M Sauerbier, Publisher New Homes & Ideas

This Publisher’s NEW Home Pick of the Week will make you "GREEN"  with envy if this home is SOLD before you make it out to see it...This home, the Chesson is built in the community of Stonehenge Park by Homes by Dickerson. I picked this home not only because of the location but because of the exquisite attention to details. The Chesson home is priced well under $500,000 and yet feels like a million dollar home. This home is also “Green Certified”. Low VOC paints, green label carpeting, certified cabinetry and formaldehyde free insulation are a few of the ways that living in a “Green Certified” home will lessen the exposure to harmful chemicals and help create healthier living spaces for you.
The community of Stonehenge Park is located in North Raleigh right off of Creedmoor Road and very close to 540. Who even knew a beautiful new construction community could even be found in such a sought after, established part of town. As you drive through this quaint community, you’ll be astonished to see all of the beautiful mature hardwoods not to mention the handful of graceful horses grazing in their pasture. Now that is amazing! Yet, a minute away is all the convenience and hustle and bustle of desirable North Raleigh.
The Chesson home is such a perfect fit for such a warm and serene community. The home is so inviting with an old fashioned lamp post and its covered front porch. Once inside, you literally feel the quality and workmanship of the home by closing the solid wood, arched front door. It makes such a wonderful impression as your eyes are directed upward into the vaulted ceiling foyer with a true hardwood open stair and second floor landing. Just beautiful! Trim and details delight as you make your way through the living spaces of the home liked beamed ceilings, moldings, and transomed windows. The kitchen is a gourmet cook’s dream. Gleaming marble kitchen countertops, (perfect for rolling a phylo dough crust!), and bright beautiful white cabinets with gleaming subway tile backsplash. Absolutely gorgeous! Last but not least, because I could go on all day how beautiful this home is, is the 1st floor master suite. Wall mounted reading sconces adorn the custom painted walls to either side of a Custom trimmed bayed window. There is a clawed tub in the master bath. Heaven. And someone was thinking of us ladies when they installed an opaque glass sliding door to the enormous walk in closet. Natural light and more space for wall shelving! Ingenious. Please go visit Homes by Dickerson’s newest community of Stonehenge Park. Make sure to view the Chesson, you will want to buy it…if someone else hasn’t snatched it up already!                                                                                                        SEE More...                                          http://www.newhomesource.com/newhomebook/communitydetail/builder-9218/community-55361
