SHOWCASE OF HOMES: Denms Winger of West Point the youngest member of the Northern Wasatch Home Builders Association, has a home in this year's Parade of Homes at a site in Syracuse L o ' IV TiMSCMOON IBtoniWd Cj&rmt Parade features new builder 1997 highlights show s home-builder- : work By LORETTA PARK Standard Examiner correspondent . YRACUSE - Dennis Winger started his business 18 months ago and is now one of the ; featured builders in the Northern Wasatch Home Builders Association 1997 Parade ' of Homes. 7 The West Point resident is i busy finishing the home for the parade. The architect for the home is Brent Hales of Pleasant View. Wingers wife, Kimberly, is doing all the interior design work. She likes to do that, so I'm giving her the chance to show her work, Winger said. , r Kimberly Winger, who works at R.C. in said Willeys every room will Syracuse, be different. Im using things Dennis and I like, she said. the home has been fun, Decorating Kimberly Winger said, but it makes you want to live in it. The Wingers own home is fairly new, she said. She has recently taken maternity leave after delivering a baby a month ago. She homc-constructi- said she spends the night feedings thinking about what needs to be done in the newly constructed home. Some of the furniture shown in the home arc from their own house, w bile other pieces have been bought specifically for the home in the parade. The Wingers plan on putting those pieces in storage after the parade, she said. The home; which has 1,920 square feet finished on the main floor, is at the fixed site of the parade of homes in Syracuse, ' 1 050 W. 2500 South. The home is listed at $279,000, Winger said. There are eight homes at that site, with 23 other homes scattered from North Ogden to North Salt Lake, said Brandy Salazar, the associations public relations manager. Builders in the parade of homes have to be members of the association and their homes need to meet certain qualifications, Salazar said. Dennis Winger is one of the newest members of the association, she said. Those wanting to go on the tour should keep in mind it takes several hours just to walk through the homes at the fixed site. Tickets are good for the entire 1 1 days, Salazar said. The home features maple wood in the kitchen instead of oak, with the refrigerator and dishwasher paneled to match the cabinets. Dennis Winger used cherry wood in the master bathroom, which has a green granite jacuzzi tub and a separate shower. The Wingers chose not to wallpaper any of the walls so it would be easier to sell. Dennis Winger said. I didnt want to use anything that might make a potential buyer hate it, he said. There are no vaulted ceilings in this home. Instead Dennis Winger built a tray ceiling in the family room, to offset it front the kitchen. Im tired of seeing vaulted ceilings. Theyve been used a lot, he said. He also put a built-i- n entertainment center in the family room. The sunken floor with the tray ceiling give the illusion of a separate room from the kitchen, even though they are next to each other. Kimberly Winger will put leather furniture with glass and iron endtables in the family room. Hard-woo- d floors are in the hallway and in the kitchen. Light-colorcarpet runs throughout the home. three-bedroo- m ed Leaded windows are used in the front entrance. The green marble used in the fireplace in the family room is repeated in the tile of the foyer. The lighting system in the home is fairly new technology, Dennis Winger said. There arc two main control panels in the home. One is in the master bedroom and one is by the garage entrance, so the residents can switch any light on anywhere in the home. The system is called Radio RA by Lutron and was installed by J&J Llcc-tri- c, he said. Crown molding is used in the formal living room. The archway into the living room is woodwork. The master bedroom features double doors, which is becoming standard in mox new homes, he said. It makes it easier to get furniture in it and it sets it off as the kings room, Dennis Winger said. Also standard in any home listing more than $150,000 is central air conditioning and heat, he said. The outside of the home is done in two-tobrick, and Mower Bros., who are doing the landscaping, will color the curbing to match, Dennis Winger said. Winger began construction at 16. ne Builder designed home for his kids By LORETTA PARK Standard-Examin- correspondent - Don RIVERDALE home for his The 9,500 square feet of French country living space boasts an indoor pool, a hot tub, gymnasium, a game - room and a home theater system. I know where my kids are going to be and the neighbors, Fair said. Farrs new home is one of 3 1 homes featured in the Northern Wasatch Home Builders Association 1997 Parade of Homes. The parade begins Friday and runs until Sept. 1 , , Eight homes are at the Park-woo- d Estates in Syracuse, 1050 W. 2500 South, the fixed site. The remaining 23 homes are from North Ogden to North Salt Lake, said Brandy Salazar, the associations public relations manager. Farrs home is at 1381 W. 5375 South, Riverdale. Farr, who owns Springwood Construction, said this is the first time he has , built a home this large. He has been building homes for 22 years, starting his own business in 1984. Most of what he builds are starter homes. This is the also the first time he's ever completed a home two weeks before the parade begins. I've never heard of it happening to anyone else before, he said. I But he and his wife, LuAnn,- are looking forward to moving 40-fo- ot . -- -- , J : 5- - ' ; into the home after the Parade of Homes. Salazar said Farr almost backed out of showing his home. Hes a private person. He does not like attention focused on him, but the home is fabulous, Salazar said. Salazar said builders who are chosen for the parade have to be members of the association. The homes also have to meet certain qualifications to be included in the parade, she said. The Farrs began building the home eight months ago. They started looking at plans and sites in April of 1996. After discussing their needs and wants, they chose Lon Amell of North Ogden as the architect. An indoor pool is a want, Don Farr said. Its also more economical in the long run to have an indoor pool in this area, he said. An outdoor pool only can be used for several months, while an indoor The pool can be used Farrs have always had a swimming pool, said LuAnn Farr. The Farrs asked Lew Williams of South Ogden to help with the interior design. Williams, an LDS seminary teacher at Northridge High School, shopped with LuAnn Farr for furniture and window treatments. . But it was Don Farr who took - his children shopping for their bedroom furniture. Even though one child chose the Utah Jazz for the theme of his room, and an- other child chose roses, the de- - year-roun- TV'". . r See Heritage Senior Citizens Center, SG2 S. 1000 East, Clearfield, 773-70G- 5 dunes are the first Thursday und third I ucnl.iy from Id to I It.it a in No appointment are necessary.
