Fall Parade of Homes

After two and a half weeks of our city being decorated with amazing sculptures, large installations and one-of-a-kind pieces of artwork, ArtPrize is coming to an end.  {{{ sigh }}}.  But it just happens to be a perfect time to explore another form of artistry - homebuilding!  Design and craftsmanship are at their finest as the best-of-the-best West Michigan architects, designers and builders team up to showcase our form of art in this year's <a href="http://www.mygrhome.com/">Fall Parade of Homes</a>.  We had the pleasure of partnering with two talented builders and interior designers on three amazing projects that will be open for touring during the Fall Parade...<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLkSLQWCLfKeWhrRRy_vc8ptYWs4a-hTOaTv-_8Fwwt33faoFm_dV8qYh-8mRGVkGn-NSxMz5v98eVvZsuO8jX7vX7aFGZzfO9YwyNhHkCH_KV7ojslrMa8wFMbgAar-okir8eK9X9zG2I/s1600/872+Monroe+Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="196" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLkSLQWCLfKeWhrRRy_vc8ptYWs4a-hTOaTv-_8Fwwt33faoFm_dV8qYh-8mRGVkGn-NSxMz5v98eVvZsuO8jX7vX7aFGZzfO9YwyNhHkCH_KV7ojslrMa8wFMbgAar-okir8eK9X9zG2I/s320/872+Monroe+Front.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Zd-me8-xiSr78XCDOHGTqdVbITzIbXvJVmEuLIMspcGgMtp3IV7ojpGsL-OtCUNUxz-qnlOQMh32yX89pqN_T75ISUddJ0Ixp6VoRrNWpCHRj6MhDO5tNZ3g7DYds8HpianDyqVlqwjC/s1600/872+Monroe+Rear.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="259" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Zd-me8-xiSr78XCDOHGTqdVbITzIbXvJVmEuLIMspcGgMtp3IV7ojpGsL-OtCUNUxz-qnlOQMh32yX89pqN_T75ISUddJ0Ixp6VoRrNWpCHRj6MhDO5tNZ3g7DYds8HpianDyqVlqwjC/s320/872+Monroe+Rear.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><b>Emmett  [ <a href="http://www.mygrhome.com/paradeofhomes/mike-schaap-builders-872-monroe-blvd-south-haven/">Parade #31</a> ]</b><br /><b><i>872 Monroe Blvd • South Haven </i></b><br />Lakefront living is not often luxurious <i>and</i> conscious of size.  The Emmett design achieves both of these goals in style.  Despite being ideal for a narrow waterfront lot, this home leaves nothing wanting, offering homeowners three full floors of modern living.  Dining, kitchen, and living areas flank the outdoor patio space, while three bedrooms plus a master suite are located on the upper level.  The lower level provides additional gathering space and a bunk room, as well as a "beach bath" with walkout access to the lake. <i>Built by Mike Schaap Builders, Interiors by Benchmark Wood Studio</i><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b><i>* Available for Sale * for purchasing information, please contact Josi VanHorn / Real Estate Firm at  269-673-7133</i></b><b><i> </i></b><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5b35aoFtuv6W31l_Ksrc0wo5GroThSbWY_WoyMVUKOy7fDQjitQJ1-nphLB8KJ2MoI39SbTF8r3CO_7lXReTBDKGYWHxrIzWPB30wNoHifKtpMXFG-iRwL9x__WB0FpIb-_5ZpQDweL8G/s1600/876+Monroe+Front+sm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="182" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5b35aoFtuv6W31l_Ksrc0wo5GroThSbWY_WoyMVUKOy7fDQjitQJ1-nphLB8KJ2MoI39SbTF8r3CO_7lXReTBDKGYWHxrIzWPB30wNoHifKtpMXFG-iRwL9x__WB0FpIb-_5ZpQDweL8G/s400/876+Monroe+Front+sm.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><b>Sheridan  [ <a href="http://www.mygrhome.com/paradeofhomes/mike-schaap-builders-876-monroe-blvd-south-haven/">Parade #32</a> ]</b><br /><b><i>876 Monroe Blvd • South Haven</i></b><br />This beautiful shaker home would sit comfortably on many sites, particularly those with a view.  The main floor offers a wide variety of inviting areas to gather, including a large combined kitchen, dining, and living area, a cozy hearth room, and an expansive deck off the back of the house.

This four-story cottage bungalow is designed to perch on a steep shoreline, allowing homeowners to get the most out of their space.  The main level of the home accommodates gatherings with easy flow between the living room, dining area, kitchen, and outdoor deck.  The midlevel offers a lounge, bedroom suite and the master bedroom, complete with access to a private deck.  The family room, kitchenette, and beach bath on the lower level open to an expansive backyard patio.  At the top of the nest is the loft area, which provides a bunk room and extra guest bedroom suite.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
