~ My Dream Home ~
When I first made my decision to buy a home I knew immediately what type of house I wanted: a two floor split ranch with lots of character and, unlike most people, I wanted a fixer upper. It’s not so much because of the price, but because I wanted something that was put together the way I wanted. I plan to start updating the outside first and slowly but surely work our way in. It will definitely be a work in progress for a while but it will definitely be my dream home!
First up will be the outdated siding that is in desperate need of a fresh new look. I’m hoping the new siding will give it the curb appeal it’s lacking. Just recently I found out about the sustainable LP SmartSide Siding where they have a complete line of exterior trim and siding products that are made to look like the traditional wood without all of the maintenance that goes along with it. I love that I have this option as an alternative to basic traditional siding because I get to keep the rustic, charming appeal of the house that I initially fell in love with.
I swapped out between colors and tried their enormous siding options all with one handy tool.
I watched my ideas come to life within a few minutes using the LP SmartSide Design Planner . As you can see I kept the color and removed the shutters, it has the same overall look but with a updated makeover.

All houses need maintenance, so it’s nice to know that LP SmartSide feature their innovative, SmartGuard® manufacturing process for the strength and resistance to fungal decay and termites. LP SmartSide provides what every home owner needs: peace of mind. To me, that is priceless!

You have a beautiful home! I could sit and watch you update the entire thing! I can’t believe how much it changes the look of the house just from the siding!

I am like you! We are looking at a potential dream house tomorrow. I want to make it mine. That’s a really cool app, btw. New siding does wonders in updating a home. Congrats on your dream home!

Technology has made it so simple to redesign a home. Being able to use it to preview your home before doing work on it is so neat!
