We went to the last day of the Parade of Homes this weekend! The Parade of Homes is an open house tour of tons of new houses in the Raleigh area each October. Click Here to see the entries. They had a really cool iPhone app that we used to find houses near where you are. We saw 5 amazing houses and they were all really big and gorgeous! The Parade of Homes houses range in price from practical $150k starter homes to extravagant $2.5M estates. We went to those on the upper end because they're usually pretty unique and the most fun to tour! This post is really, really picture heavy. Prepare for some amazing inspiration! The first house we toured was lovely. I didn't take any pictures inside, but here's the outside, I loved the architecture in this neighborhood. The Asheville - $949,000 - 4,476 sqft Next, we went to a smaller house in the same area. I forgot to take a picture of the front, but it was cute. I think the best part was the basement, it was really neat. Game table and tv lounge in the basement Awesome bar and mini-kitchen in the basement Guest Bedroom Guest Bedroom again Dining Room back upstairs Then, we went to the best one of them all, the $2.5 million house in Cary. This house was gorgeous, I think I would be able to live there ;) This house features an amazing interior, but also a pool, elevator, and personal dance studio, craziness. Intrada Grande - $2,480,000 - 6,236 sqft Gorgeous dining room to the left of the foyer Built-ins and pass through from the dining room Beautiful carpet inlay in the floor instead of a rug Love these curtains, gold and silver are so pretty together Pass-through window from the kitchen to the outdoor kitchen and living area Backyard looks out over one of the greens on the golf course Yes, there's an elevator, lol! Cute nook and seating bench. Love the grass- cloth wallpaper Interesting powder bath, bold blue stripes Amazing bench seat in the master bedroom, love the carpet too! My favorite room of the house, the master bedroom. So pretty. Love the art above the dresser and the color scheme Amazing master bathroom... gorgeous details Loved the vanity and lighting too Double shower in the master bath Loved this dresser and the little porch off the stairs Loved this chair and pouf combo in one of the offices upstairs [More pictures of the upstairs to come] Here's the last house that I took pictures at: Amy's Nest - $748,000 - 4456 sqft Pretty kitchen, although Kevin thought the lime green was crazy ;) Loved the custom paneled fridge and freezer Cool outdoor entertaining area Loved this idea of using hooks with letters of your last name for coats etc Master Bath The most amazing closet Complete with a hidden passage... ... so cool! Entertainment room That's it, we had a lot of fun. Hope you enjoyed the tours and found some inspiration for yourself, I know I did!
There’s so much to love about this space and the custom framed abstract art featured in it… But, our favorite component is the deep, black matting. With a white background, and white frame, it would’ve been easy for these pieces to get “lost” in all that brightness. The dark tones of the black frame design components ground everything. Not to mention that fantastic rug, which mimics the frame design. Way to design a space around favorite custom framed art pieces!
