Tips to Decorate Your PA New Homes
Whether you have lived in your PA new homes for years, are thinking about staging a home for sale or simply want to spruce up your quarters, there are thousands of decorating ideas floating around on the internet. Problem is, many interior design options are expensive or overly time consuming to execute.
When it comes to new homes, model home decorators often have a hat of tricks when it comes to maximizing design on a budget. Here, we will share some of the most popular ideas that can transform your space from tired to trendy.
- Mouldings – And we aren’t just talking about the dining room here. Using simple picture moulding in a two-story foyer or other area with vaulted ceilings is a great way to fill blank space without spending thousands on artwork. Use the moulding to create a large rectangle and fill with wallpaper or paint and then inlay it with a smaller rectangle of a complimentary color to carry a design theme through to a commonly ignored area of the home for just a couple hundred dollars. To take it another step further, create matching shadowboxing to give your entryway an elegant, classy look. Read More→

The home also features a large owner’s suite with walk-in closet, two additional guest rooms and an oversized covered porch.

S&A Homes Introduces Five New Floor Plans at Centennial Pointe
We are in the PA new home business, so of course, we have a pretty good idea of what buyers are looking for. Great locations close to major roadways, downtown work areas, shopping and the best school districts always seem to top the list. And price point is more important now than ever. However, for some to gain all of these benefits, they often have to overlook the fact that their neighborhood looks a bit cookie-cutter, or sacrifice on amenities.
At Centennial Pointe, located just 1 mile from Robinson Town Centre and just 15 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh, there is no reason to sacrifice anything for affordable convenience. This community not only features an amazing location close to everything, but also includes a proposed swimming pool, clubhouse, basketball courts and tot lot.
And now, there is something even more special about Centennial Pointe. Our brand new product line up was rolled out on Feb. 1, and includes 5 brand new, Craftsman style homes that definitely defy the typical 4 bed, 2.5 bath home. Quaint covered porches, cedar-shake style siding and completely unique interiors are just part of what define these Pittsburgh new homes. The charm of yesteryear is no more evident than in these homes, and yet homeowners won’t have to give up anything in terms of modern amenities. Read More→
