Which master bath hardware color should you choose for your NC new home?
Take a look at these custom homes by Stanton Homes, and see how very different hardware colors and styles can give a master bathroom distinct personality.
The oil rubbed bronze fixtures in this master bathroom bring out the dark tones integrated into the custom tile tub surround and shower.
The cabinet and drawer knobs and sink faucets contrast nicely against the white countertops and medium brown wooden surfaces.
Oil Rubbed Bronze bathroom hardware can be found more often in craftsman and contemporary style new homes.
Watch a video tour of the home pictured here - The Brogan.
Whether satin nickel, brushed nickel, or chrome, silver hardware is a classic choice.
The Brushed Nickel fixtures in this master bath blend into the room for a more open, airy, cohesive feel.
The tile shower, floor and tub surround and cabinetry contain more neutral tones of brown and tan.
Brushed nickel has been the hardware of choice for premium homes for a number of years now, while the less expensive Chrome finish was generally found in production homes.
However, in the past year, Chrome has become quite popular, and is anticipated to outrun Brushed Nickel in premium baths in 2012.

Types of Tile - Which Types of Tile Are Used Most Often in Master Baths and Kitchens?
As you plan your new home, make sure you consider master bathroom layout options.
While kitchens, outdoor living spaces, and family areas can be some of the most fun aspects of your home to plan, the location of the master bathroom toilet can still an important aspect of your everyday routine.
Here are the top four most popular master bathroom toilet locations, to help you decide which style best suits your personality.
Want to maintain your privacy? Then consider floor plans with a completely separate "Toilet Room".
Having a separate door that can lock might be the most comfortable option for you.
Watch a video tour of the home pictured here - The Beaufort.
If you feel a little claustrophobic in a closed commode room, then consider master bathroom layouts with a full wall separating the toilet.
Leave off the door, and the room will feel more spacious. Tucking the toilet away will still give you a comfortable level of privacy.
Watch a video tour of the home pictured here - The Greenhaven.
Master bathroom layouts with a half-wall separating the commode maintain some privacy, while keeping a more open feel.
The side of a vanity can also serve as a half-wall for privacy in some floor plan layouts.
Watch a video tour of the home pictured here - The Beaufort.
The fourth option? Consider a fully open master bath, with no wall or room separating the toilet.
This master bath layout style is most common in an Accessible or Universal Design Raleigh new home.
The separation allows for full dismount space, making the bath easy to use no matter what mobility device is present.
Each aspect of your new home should reflect your personality, even the master bathroom commode placement! Get ideas for your Raleigh new home, below.

Wondering what kind of garage is best for your new Raleigh home? Here are the pros and cons of choosing a Courtyard Style garage!
- Create an automatic set-back for the home, with space for kids to play safely away from the road
- Attractive front exterior with additional windows possible (front entry garages can limit front exterior windows)
Watch a video tour of the home pictured here - The Worthington.
- Limits front yard grassy areas
- A courtyard garage home is usually a little more "spread out", which may result in a higher cost per square foot compared to a traditional "stacked" home
- May require extra care in choosing a home lot to allow for a deeper home.
A courtyard garage home can be extremely attractive - and it's just a quick hop from the driveway to the front door.

"Attention-to-detail, quality, a conscientious work ethic and an extremely customer-friendly team are prime elements of this company and as a combined phenomenon that, in my work life, I have rarely found with other such companies. You may find one or two of those qualities, but Stanton Homes brings them all to the job site." - Dave Milidonis (Cary NC)
"They are a pleasure to work with and our house is turning out great. These guys really do support the troops.
EnergyWise provided a service for something I felt was very important we include in our house. The projected energy savings should pay for it in just a few years, and the rest is gravy.
EnergyWise appealed to us because it was so thorough and balanced. Rather than adding a few random upgrades, it was an engineered system. It started by addressing all three modes of heat transmission in and out of the house: caulking to resist convection, Icynene to resist convection and conduction, and heat rejecting windows to resist radiation. Incorporating local climate data and solar exposure, it calculated the structure's heat load so well that it was able to guarantee the costs to run the HVAC equipment it had specified for the house. EnergyWise took a lot of decisions out of our hands, as we had wanted to build a home this way from the beginning." - Ryland & Kelly Page (Raleigh NC)
"I've never seen a home with this many cool features. I love the built in display area in the breakfast nook - it's perfect for my teapot collection! Thank you too, for working with me to expand the master closet and to add the wrap around his and hers feature - it's absolutely perfect! As soon as my son is ready to buy, I'm taking him straight to you...." - Sheila H.
"The customer service is incredible and the builder is extremely knowledgable. He answered every one of my questions patiently and fully - even the ones I know I asked more than once! The 18 month warranty is great too - longer than I've had in any other home. I would recommend this builder to anyone." - James Q.
"I had almost given up on finding a custom home on land of my own that I could afford. When I heard about Stanton Homes and their homes on acreage, I immediately went to see their homes - and I'm so glad I did. Their custom home had all the things I've always wanted, like an extended dining room, lots and lots of decorative trim, and a wrap around front porch, and I was able to have a very private lot on one and a half acres like I've always wanted - and it was all still in my price range. I'm so glad I found them!" - Cori S.
