Home
is where the heart is

In real estate
advertisements, the top right hand corner usually has a few icons to indicate
the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, garages and other facilities a home has. This
graphic summary is useful for house hunters, but we all know that it’s only a
form of shorthand that does little to express the essence of a home.

Describing a home as
“5 bed 3 bath Dbl Gar” reduces it to a soulless, heartless shell. We mean no
offence to the real estate industry, but the mantra “location, location,
location” tends to reduce a house to a spot on a map, and ignores a home’s
standing as part of a real, live community.

Just as a horse is
more than an herbivorous quadruped, a home is much more than an address or a
collection of rooms with different functions.

It contains your
furniture and other possessions, personal stuff that you’ve collected over the
years that expresses your unique tastes and interests, and really means
something to you and your family. It’s where you nurture your dreams for the
future, and it’s full of memories of your past.

You, like many people,
might be reluctant to sell the family home, even though it no longer suits your
needs. When there’s a great deal of emotional investment in a home, and it’s a
place of warmth, love and security, it might be better to have some renovation
work done, rather than to consider moving.

A sensitively designed
and built extension or renovation can change the way your home works, make it
more effective, and provide more space. With this solution, you’ll keep all
those intangible features that are the essence of your home, retain your ties
and connections with your neighbourhood and community, and gain a home that is
right for you, and your stage of life.
