2008 Parade of Homes for the BCA of Southwest Idaho News and information

Today, April 26, 2008, marks the first day of the Building Contractors Association of Southwestern Idaho Parade of Homes! The Parade lasts from today, April 26,2008 to May 11,2008. Hours are Monday-Thursday: 5-8p.m. Friday: 3-8p.m. and Weekends: 12 Noon-8 p.m.

There are 31 Show Homes in this year's Parade in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, and Star Idaho. The homes cover the gamet; from modest sized 1600 square foot homes, to lavish 5,600+ Square foot 'mini mansions' and everything in between.

One home you MUST see is "A house Moderne" by Burgundy Homes at 579 E. Orion Ct in Somerset Heights Boise, Idaho. This is a 5600+ show home inspired by the Frank Lloyd Wright tradition. Many exotic woods were used in the construction of this home including African Wenge', Macassar Ebony, and Kirei woods.

Another can't miss choice is the "Amy Jean" by Zach Evans Construction at 1920 Salerno St in Bridgetower, Meridian, Idaho. This is the ULTIMATE Entertainer's home! The home wraps around a front courtyard, featuring custom made gates and an exterior fireplace. The interior is packed with all the extras to make entertaining a breeze-separate ice maker, professional grade appliances, two home theater systems.....I could go on all day but you get the point! Even the garage is impressive! There is plenty of room to park an RV or Boat; it's even painted and heated!

Tickets are required for the Parade, and are available at Select-a-Seat locations, or at idahotickets.com. Mondays are Family Days-Everyone is FREE (no tickets required).

I hope you all enjoy the BCASWI Parade of Homes, and get lots of ideas for your Custom Home .
