parade of homes: spring 2013

My all-time favorite time of the year is Parade of Home season.  This weekend is the last weekend, so I am making it a point to get out one day and see some of these beauties.  Here are some of the homes I'm dying to get a closer look at:

Home #R24 by Castle Remodeling

Home #224 by Tradition Homes LLC

Home #R42 by w.b. builders

This kitchen is perfection.  I want it in my house riiight now.

Home #244 by Homes by Tradition

I feel like I need to preface this last one.  I don't usually post a ton of really modern homes on Through the Front Door, primarily because it's not for everyone.  Generally, I try to stick to contemporary homes that have clean lines, but soft, inviting accents.  With that being said, I absolutely LOVE me a good modern home.  The clean lines, the open space, the lack of anything unnecessary...design heaven.  So with all of that being said, this house I am out of my mind excited to go see.  

Dream Home #359 by Lansted LLC

Isn't it just out of this world?! I love the contrast, the color palette, everything.  And the fact that it's on Lake Minnetonka just makes it that much better.  For those of you not from MN, I don't even know how to begin to describe the awesomeness that is Lake Minnetonka.  The best part about Minnesota are its lakes, and aside from Lake Superior (Duluth represent!), Lake Minnetonka is the creme of the crop. 

Do you guys all have Parade of Home tours where you're from?
