Legend Homes in partnership wiuth Bradford Interiors is once again a featured builder in this year’s event which will draw an expected 15,000 visitors.

"Over the years, I recognize that my clients are my most priceless resource
and I am a better builder because
I listen to them.”
Doug Herman,
founder and president

The Parade home boasts all of the amenities and characteristics that you’d expect in a Legend Home along with many new features and design ideas. One such feature includes what Legend Homes president, Doug Herman, describes as the “lifestyle center.” With custom built-in’s bins for recycling sorting, a charging station for Ipods and cell phones, a drop-off area for groceries and a cork board and calendar area—it’s a space designed and built for today’s lifestyle.
“The post-recession mentality about housing is more about smarter homes focused on what people really need. They want to eliminate wasted space, they want a home that’s energy efficient and makes sense for the life they lead. That’s exactly what we’ve been doing at Legend Homes for years,” Herman says.
“Discerning buyers have a higher expectation for something distinctive, something that exemplifies an excellence
in design, has unique features and, most of all, livability,” Herman says. “You will see that in this year’s Parade home as well as all of our new properties.”
Legend Homes follows five principal steps with each and every home it builds, whether it’s a market home or a pre-sold custom home.
1) Location

Annandale, Glenellen, Governor’s Club, Westhaven and Legends Ridge. Elmbrooke, a new neighborhood on Concord Road just east of Edmondson Pike, is a new Brentwood location with opportunities that Legend Homes is very excited about. Homes in this neighborhood will begin in the $500s.
Legend Homes has home sites available now, or can build on a client’s own lot with equal ease.
2) Livability
Legend Home’s floor plans have been fine tuned to “not only look and feel great, but live great,” Herman says.
3) Attention to Detail
Paying attention to the details, no matter how small is critical. Careful selection of finishes and features can make a home -- and help it retain its value and future marketability. You will see examples of this in the parade home as well with custom paneled walls, faux finishes, specialty custom painted finish on the cabinets in the kitchen.
4) Communication
With routine communication before and during the construction, the building process can be streamlined and orderly. “We pride ourselves on making the process fun,” Herman says with a smile.
5) Value
“Getting the most out of every dollar is critical to building smart,” Herman stresses. Legend Homes vows to get the best pricing it can from its tradesmen and suppliers in order to pass those savings on to their homeowners.
