The Values of Home
Congressional Design/Build is dedicated to the proposition that traditional
values of architectural style, comfortable streetscapes, and modern conveniences
can coexist and thrive in close proximity. At Congressional Design/Build
we think there are four things every family is searching for: curb appeal,
livability, neighborhood, and lasting value.
Better Curb Appeal
When you drive down the street and first see your home, is it love
at first sight? Is it the style and finish you’ve always imagined?
Do the massing and proportion and detailing echo your long held vision
of the way a home should be? Curb appeal is the source of pride of
place, the sense of satisfaction you feel whenever you return home.
More Livability
As you move inside the home, does it open up and welcome you – with
light filled spaces, easy access to all parts of the home, and public
spaces that offer opportunities for meaningful social interaction. Is
the kitchen an interactive center – where friends and family can
meet and converse together? Does the master suite provide a luxurious
retreat from the pressures of daily life? Do you feel pleasure and delight
as you move from room to room? Livability is the hallmark of good interior
design, an indication that the builder cares about the way you experience
life.
Friendly Neighborhoods
The way the homes are sited on the land and interact with each
other can make a major difference. The homes should fit together in
a pleasant streetscape of compatible styles, well-maintained yards,
and public spaces. The proximity to shopping, entertainment, employment,
and transportation adds convenience and lively interest to the neighborhood.
Lasting Value
Value begins with a reasonable purchase price, and then continues
to grow through the years through easy maintenance, quality finishes,
and community appreciation. When it becomes time to sell your
home, the investment you make in a Congressional Home pays off through
higher resale value. Even though a Congressional Home may cost a little
more to begin with, it provides a lasting value that will repay itself
again and again.
