I'm a cosmetic work in progress! Buy me now before the work is done, and the price goes up! Adorable carriage home with social gathering (kitchen, living room, powder room, storage/laundry) downstairs, and private (bedrooms & bath) up. Arch ways, under stair storage, French doors, stainless Whirlpool appliances and Quartz counters are just some of my special features. My roof, plumbing, electrical, HVAC and kitchen cabinets are newer. Ask for more details, disclosures, survey, and your personal tour today! Professional photos and staging are coming once the work is done. Save money; buy now! (Note: One bedroom is a pass thru to the other; non-conforming.) .....The popularity of the JEWEL BOX HOME and the lifestyle philosophy it represents has reemerged!
There has been a nationwide decline in the McMansion craze. Separate formal living and dining spaces are out, kitchens, great rooms and outdoor entertaining spaces are in.
Many factors play a role in the desire to downsize, less to manage in terms of energy and water consumption, a desire for a lower maintenance lifestyle, a focus on livability and a less is more philosophy and the opportunity to now own homes that operate with optimal efficiency using smart home technology.
These JEWEL BOX HOMES appeal to a wide variety of demographics including young professionals and newlyweds, as well as two fast-growing segments: empty nesters and retirees. Living spaces are built to human scale. Architectural details add beauty and character. Human needs take priority. The focus is on good design, not size. (taken from Quora, What is a Jewel Box home?)
