Welcome Summer Into Your Home

Spring in the South is a funny thing. One day, you’re bundled in sweaters and scarves, and the next, you’re donning shorts and flip-flops, only to return to the sweater the third day. It can be frustrating, but rest assured – the summer heat is coming!

Atlanta Gardening ©Klem MitchNo one likes to think about spring cleaning but as a new Paran homeowner, it will be easy! This is a great time to really get to know your house. There are some future great habits to call your own to ensure that you’ll love your new home forever. Do these things when spring weather is warm and you will be prepared for the summer fun when it’s in full bloom.

  1. Keep your AC tuned-up. Your brand new home and state-of-the-art AC are terrific performers, but give it a quick once-over to make yourself familiar with it. Look at the filter and make sure it’s clean and there’s nothing obstructing proper airflow. Moving forward, routinely check the filter and keep things clean as your best defense in staying cool. We recommend changing your filter once per month, even with filters designed for longer life. This will keep your HVAC system in tip-top shape for decades to come.
  2. Now that you’re sure the cold air will be pumping, make sure it stays in your house! Of course, your new home is sealed tightly and there are no leaks but as time goes on and activity in your family is steady, get into the habit of doing annual checks. Ensure that the seals on your doors and windows are intact and seal any places where air may escape. If there are any gaps, a simple caulk application should take care of them.
  3. Take a look at your gutters. They are clean and clear now and water flows nicely. Next year, after fall foliage has dropped, take a quick look to ensure that they are still clear of leaves and other blockages. Since Spring and summer can bring heavy rains, it’s important to keep water flowing from your gutters to the downspouts, and away from your house.
  4. Defend your home against bugs. In this part of the country, warm weather brings out all the many-legged creatures you don’t want at your party. Take a quick stroll around your exterior and remove piles of brush or standing water near your home. This is the best way to reduce the appearance of fire ants, beetles, mosquitoes, and other unwelcome insects in your yard. Exterior perimeter protection and maintenance is the number 1 way to keep your home pest free all year.
  5. Your new lawn looks terrific! It’s a great time to decide where to put the hammock, and where to plant the roses. In a couple of years, you can aerate it, dethatch and reseed the grass every 2 to 3 years to keep things looking green and fresh.
  6. Visit your garden bed. Get the kids to help! Pull out weeds, till the soil, and select seeds and/or sprouting seedlings that you want to grow. If things look too sparse, fill in some spaces with nice perennial flowers or, maybe, some herbs! Did you know that lavender, mint, basil, petunias, and chrysanthemums are not only lovely, they also repel insects?Pressure washer ©SKT Studio
  7. Now comes the fun part, pull out the pressure washer! Spray down lawn furniture, decking, walkways, etc. and get rid of the winter grunge. Pressure washing saves time and energy over hand washing with buckets and sponges. It’s more efficient and even kind of gratifying. It’s like painting with Clean!
  8. Now that things are washed, take a walk around and scan the fence and gates. Take a look at the siding and doors and consider a seasonal welcome mat or flower box. Moving forward, doing a yearly scan will keep you ahead of any small adjustments or repairs that will keep your home perfect.
  9. Prepare the grill! This is the time of year when guests will want burgers, hotdogs, and sundried treats from the grill. Is it ready? Turn the grill up to its highest heat and close the hood. After about 15 minutes, scrape the surface with a metal grill brush. Don’t forget the grill box. Scrape out burnt leavings and clean with soapy water then rinse with fresh water. When the grill surface is clean, wipe on a light layer of vegetable-based oil and you’re ready for the party!
  10. Don’t forget your other guests. How does that birdbath and bird feeder look? Give them a nice cleaning and refill with fresh water and birdseed.

Of course, inside the house, you may want to change your linens from winter to summer. Clean the windows. Dust the ceiling fans and set them to rotate counter-clockwise to push the cool air down.

Maybe it’s time to search for grill recipes, try that new mint julep recipe or a new lemonade for the kids. Celebrate summer in your wonderful new Paran Homes house – where quality lives and so does your family!

Discover Comfort & Convenience in Homes with Bedrooms on Main

A home with bedrooms on main offers you and your family opportunities for comfort and convenience that you didn’t know you were missing out on. You can discover the benefits that these floor plans have to offer in our Jefferson community, Traditions of Braselton. This community is located in the beautiful Traditions of Braselton Country Club. Below you will find the stylish floor plans with bedrooms on the main floor, along with the benefits and how you can make the most of the space.

Owner Suites on the Main Floor 

Master-on-main is a highly requested design

One home design that features bedrooms on the main floor is a highly-requested favorite among homeowners of all life stages; a master-on-main floor plan. Also called an owner’s suite on main, this home design offers a variety of perks that benefits each homeowner differently. For example, older couples or homeowners looking for a forever home can age in place with ease and comfort. Parents with older children can find quiet and privacy at home by putting a floor between yourselves and the kids. Multigenerational households can also flourish with an owner’s bedroom on main. Grandma and grandpa can have the comfort and convenience they need. Lastly, an owner’s suite on main gives you convenient access to living spaces and the outdoors. Make a cup of joe and head back to bed, or grab a book and get some fresh air every morning! 

Three floor plans here feature owner’s suites on the main floor – Brighton, Bedminster, and South Hampton. They also feature other details that are built with comfort and convenience in mind. Some of those include double walk-in closets in the owner’s suite (Brighton), a dedicated flex space upstairs (Bedminister), and a covered back porch (Southampton).

Secondary Bedrooms on Main 

Secondary bedrooms on the main floor offer benefits too

There are also plenty of benefits of choosing a floor plan with secondary bedrooms on main. Depending on the size of your family, an extra bedroom is great for flex space. If you turn this space into a playroom for the kids, you can cook, clean, and relax while still having an eye on the fun. Also, it makes an exceptional spot for a work-from-home office. Working near the kitchen, family room, and outdoor living spaces is a game-changer for remote employees. And, if you have a large family with older children, your teenagers will surely have a lively discussion about who gets to claim this bedroom. 

In Traditions of Braselton, four floor plans feature secondary bedrooms on the main floor. They are the Newport, Madison, Hampton, and Southport. These floor plans all feature 5 bedrooms and range in size from 2,400 to 3,000 square feet. Discover comfort and convenience in other details of these homes too, like walk-in pantries, upstairs lofts, formal dining rooms, and so much more – all per plan!

Design an Inviting Owner Bedroom & Bathroom: Design Tips + Standard Features

Ever wonder how the interior design pros make an owner bedroom look so inviting and elegant that it almost seems impossible to replicate? A Pinterest-worthy owner bedroom can be created in any space with the right decor. But, the canvas you are working with makes all the difference – including details like the size of your bedroom, the walls of your shower, and the storage space in your closet. So if you are looking to make your owner bedroom a stylist-worthy space with some simple design tips, discover the standard features we put in our Metro Atlanta homes to make your style shine – read on! 

Stylish Owner Bedroom in Jefferson GA

Take a Step into a Stylish Owner Bedroom

It should be easy to turn your owner bedroom into your favorite space in your home. And, Paran Homes adds standard features to make it happen. At Traditions of Braselton in Jefferson, GA, the owner’s suites are breathtaking before you even add your style! For example, these rooms are designed with a spacious layout with tall windows for natural light. You’ll have plenty of room for convenient and charming spaces, like a reading nook for slow mornings. There are also design options available in our new construction homes, like adding a sitting room to your owner bedroom or tray ceilings to elevate the elegance!

Now that you’re familiar with the canvas you’ll have in a Traditions of Braselton home, let’s add the style elements. Let’s start with the bed. Nothing says luxury like lots of layers from your bedding. For instance, the more pillows the better – start with sleeping pillows, then add shams, decorative pillows, and a long pillow. After you set your sheets (silk sheets are all the rage right now), incorporate different patterns, colors, and textures with blankets, linens, and a duvet or comforter. Lastly, accents will take your bedroom to the next level. Floor mirrors are the perfect accents in modern bedrooms, making your morning routine easy and opening up the room that much more. Plus, we love pops of color at Paran Homes. One look at the model home in Traditions of Braselton, and you’ll want an accent wall for a pop of color! 

Spa-Like Bath in a New Home

The Spa-like Bathroom and Huge Closet Will Change Your Life

The available homes in Traditions of Braselton are perfect examples of how Paran Homes builds with quality and features you’ll adore. First, every owner bathroom has spa-like features. Owner bathrooms vary by plan, but our standard features include his and her sinks for convenience, glass showers with gorgeous tile, and garden tubs that promote relaxation. Some available homes here even have mega showers with two shower heads, built-in shelves, and a bench for added luxury. Plus, you’ll have a walk-in closet in every floor plan, so your owner bedroom can easily stay neat and organized!

Bathrooms do not need much decoration, but adding matching elements from your owner bedroom brings the space together. A few things like a touch of greenery, a pop color like in a vintage rug or in your hand towels, and a bathtub shelf made of wood will make the bathroom feel as decorated as the rest of the house. Pamper yourself with clear organization bins in your drawers and cabinets to keep the space clean. Plus, adding a bundle of fresh eucalyptus will make you feel fancy, but also give you a mini aromatherapy session each day.

Making Your New Home a Self-Care Oasis

Americans spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, according to the EPA. Whether you work from home or in the office, you spend a chunk of your life in your home. It’s where you eat, sleep, possibly work, and relax (hopefully). So, it’s critical to make sure your home is a space that you actually want to be in. Whether you are ready to start fresh in a new home from Paran Homes or just need to take back control of your space, here are 3 simple steps to making your home a sanctuary. Self-care at home doesn’t have to be complicated! 

practice self-care and create a home office to separate work and life

Create a Dedicated Home Office for Better Self-Care

Many companies are still work-from-home or have flexible schedules where employees can  work hybridly. This means your 90% of indoor time is spent in significant part at home, so work/life balance can feel nonexistent. Creating a dedicated work space can save you a lot of stress and help you separate work and home life. Plus, you’ll be less distracted compared to a high-traffic area like a dining room table. Add some art, a desk lamp, and plant to make the space feel welcoming each day! You’ll not only be more productive in a home office, but you can unplug and shut the door until the next day. 

Our Oakleigh Pointe community offers floor plans with up to 5 bedrooms and flex space, like game rooms in the Sutton and dedicated studies in the Cambridge Plan. This community is priced from the $400s, and has available homes now!

Wonderful Smells Affect Your Mood

Your sense of smell plays a part in your overall mood, as well as the atmosphere in your home. For example, lavender is known to help relieve stress and promote natural sleep and relaxation. It is the perfect scent for a night of self-care at home. Citrus, another highly-used scent, will bring the sunshine inside for the colder months when the days are shorter, or on any rainy day! Citrus is a mood-booster that helps you stay focused and happy. 

Our communities across Metro Atlanta are designed with open-concept layouts! Add a candle, diffuser, or wall plug-in, and the aroma will extend throughout the house for maximum effect. 

self-care at home includes adding color to your new construction home

The Psychology of Color 

Color plays a major visual factor in determining your mood. Picking colors to add into the room like for accent walls, pillows, and rugs can trigger different emotional reactions. Blues are great for the bedrooms, because of their calming effect. Green, like in the dining room of our model home at Traditions of Braselton, associates with nature and is a refreshing color. It promotes peace, harmony, and good energy so when guests are over the atmosphere is always right!
