The Ultimate Open House is a feast for home-show gourmets.
You can taste a little of everything, from classic Portland homes (with the benefit of the most up-to-date energy saving equipment) to contemporary suburban styling to urban condos.
And one of the best features is that you can do a lot of sampling from your home. First, visit the home listing page. Check out the map to see the array of locations featuring Ultimate Open House homes.
Then focus on a neighborhood you like – or just check out a random sample of houses by clicking on the red boxes on the map.
You’ll see a photo of the house, and if you click on the blue link with the house or condo name, you’ll see more details.
One of the most entertaining features is the Virtual Walk Through . . . a series of interior and exterior shots that give you a feel for the sweet details of many of the homes.
Just move your cursor over the thumbnail photos. You’ll get a good idea of the layout of the kitchen and the texture of the bathroom counters, the layout of the dining room and how a decorator has made the living room both stylish and comfortable.
Then plot your course for the day – or for the whole weekend. Find the homes you like and check them out in person.
And don’t forget the $800 credit, courtesy of the homebuilder, for the first 10 buyers of homes with natural gas furnaces and water heaters!
There’s something for folks with every type of taste and home-buying budget at the Ultimate Open House. Have fun – and bon appétit!
