They knew that they were ready to purchase a home and wanted\nenough room for each family member to enjoy personal space as well as plenty of\nclosets for storage. The factor that stood out about Richmond American Homes\nwas personalization. Kara recognizes that she has a particular style and taste;\nshe also had a good sense of what she was looking for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kara loves\nthe peaceful atmosphere that Kenley Park offers. She appreciates that it&#8217;s a\nquick drive to area shopping, dining and notable schools and offers proximity\nto multiple freeways\u2014helpful for Jon&#8217;s commute into downtown Seattle. She had a\ngood feeling about the community the first time she saw it and is enjoying\ngetting to know her new neighbors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nClaiborne floor plan that her family selected boasts an open-concept great room\nand kitchen with a large island and lots of cabinets, but Kara&#8217;s favorite part\nof the home is the expansive master closet! Other highlights include the convenient\nmudroom, generous walk-in pantry and upstairs loft, which her boys have made\ntheir own. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Home Gallery\u2122\nplayed a significant role in Kara\u2019s homebuying process. As an employee, she thought\nshe knew what a design center appointment involved, but she found the experience\nto be much more exciting than she expected. She was impressed by the abundance\nof options and had fun creating a dream home that she knew would be uniquely\nhers. Kara is very excited about continuing to decorate and put her personal\nstamp on her new home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you, Kara, for sharing your story with us.
