Customize your home with Brand Homes

Brand Homes, builder at Bramlett Meadows in Paulding County and The Crest at River Trace in Newton County, offers homebuyers an easy way to customize their new home to their personal desires.

Homebuyers meet one-on-one with a decorator at the Design Gallery, a one-stop-shop in Kennesaw that helps homebuyers choose from a wide variety of cabinetry, flooring, lighting, paint colors, countertops, hardware, tile, exteriors and more…all under one roof.

"In this price range, it’s rare for a builder to provide personal design consultants who work with buyers to recommend selections that suit their tastes and lifestyles, and achieve a look with which they will be happy for years to come,” said Kathleen Gaertner, new homes specialist for Bramlett Meadows.

Both Bramlett Meadows, priced from the $150s to $250s, and The Crest at River Trace, priced from the $150s to $190s, have luxury features that are considered upgrades in other communities. These include:

•Formal living and dining rooms
•Bonus rooms
•Great rooms with vaulted ceilings and marble gas fireplaces
•Double vanities and separate garden tubs
•Arched entry ways, columns and brushed metal lighting
•Wood stained cabinets with crown molding
•Faux granite finish kitchen countertops with tile backsplashes
•Two car garages with carriage style garage doors
•Transom, radius and bay windows
•Sodded front lawns with sprinkler systems

In Bramlett Meadows and The Crest at River Trace, homes are situated on a half acre-plus homesites and are fashioned of low maintenance board-and-batten siding, cedar shake, vinyl siding and brick. The historical colors, castle turrets, decorative fan vent gables, walking soldier brick detail around the entrance, and multiple roof pitches give the homes a unique style, unlike many other new home subdivisions where every home has the same “cookie-cutter look.”

Bramlett Meadows is located within the Dugan Elementary, Austin Middle and Hiram High school district; however, a new high school, South Paulding High, is opening this fall. The Crest at River Trace, which offers 30 acres of green space along the Yellow River, lies within Rocky Plains Elementary, Veterans Memorial Middle, and Newton High School districts.

In addition, Brand Homes pays up to $3,500 in closing costs with approved lender Metro Brokers Financial. As an additional incentive at The Crest at River Trace, homebuyers can choose a washer, dryer or refrigerator for free when they use the preferred lender. Plus, financing programs exist for qualified buyers that include no money down options.
