Boone Homes Brings Arts and Crafts Style Homes to Roanoke Neighborhoods

Nov. 19, 2010 - PRLog -- Roanoke, Va.-- Boone Homes is adding a new look to many of its Roanoke new homes which really makes the neighborhoods stand out! Arts & Crafts elevations now complement the typical Colonials in communities such as Hampshire, where homes are priced from the high $300,000s, and The Groves and Roselawn Homes at Stone Manor, where homes are priced from the high $200,000s.

Boone Homes’ Arts & Crafts homes introduce typical Craftsman-style elements on the exterior, including shingle siding, board and batten siding, square columns and stone accents. In keeping with the style, which was introduced in the 1800s to demonstrate the beauty of simplicity, colors are typically in earth tones, though Boone Homes often includes a splash of color in the eaves. Distinctive windows with mullions, or grates, only in the top half of the frame let in plenty of natural light while contributing to the overall design of the homes.

Boone Homes carries the Arts & Crafts theme into the homes, too, with oil rubbed bronze door hardware, bath fixtures and light fixtures. Shaker-style cabinetry in the kitchen and beadboard wainscoting in the dining room lend additional old-time charm and warmth.

Boone Homes has several Arts & Crafts home floorplans available in convenient Roanoke locations and at a variety of price points. While introducing the new home styles, Boone Homes is standing by its commitment to developing neighborhoods where architectural elements and colors work together to create a cohesive atmosphere. In Boone Homes communities, individual homes blend in while still maintaining their distinction.
