Posted on 26. Apr, 2010 by in Community Services

Take a tour of nine newly-constructed or remodeled homes, located throughout Door County, during the Showcase of Homes, sponsored by the Door County Home Builders Association (DCHBA).

The showcased homes, of diverse styles and sizes, will be open to the public on May 7 and 8 and again on May 14, 15 and 16. A variety of builders are represented. Seven homes are new builds, and two are remodels.

“Whether you are looking to build, remodel or get up-to-date, the Showcase of Homes is a great way to meet area professionals and discover all the choices available in today’s exciting home industry,” says Adam Deuchert, president of the DCHBA and owner of A. J. Deuchert Construction.

The $10 cost of the tour includes admission to all nine homes. Hours are from 4 pm to 7 pm on Fridays and from 11 am to 4 pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets are available at Lamperts, North Shore Bank, Associated Bank, Baylake Bank, Citizens Bank, Bank Mutual and at the homes on days of the event.

Green building practices, energy efficiency, craftsmanship and eye-catching finishes are among the highlights of this year’s event, organizers say.

Cathy Deuchert, a member of DCHBA’s Showcase of Homes committee, advises people to plan a route for the tour over two days.

“It’s hard to get from one end of the county to another in just one day. Your tour pass allows you to do the Showcase over several days,” she says. “That is why we offer the Showcase on so many days.”

Builders presenting homes during the Showcase event include:

  • A.J. Deuchert Construction, Forestville;
  • Bay Lakes Builders & Development, Fish Creek;
  • Countrywide Construction, Maplewood;
  • DeLeers Construction, Green Bay and Sturgeon Bay;
  • PortSide Builders, Sturgeon Bay;
  • Tielens Construction, Dyckesville; and
  • Van’s Lumber & Custom Builders, Dyckesville and Egg Harbor.

The builders have constructed or remodeled homes in styles including traditional-craftsman, American classic chalet, Dutch colonial and other looks. The event presents Wisconsin Energy Star Homes; one home is also LEED certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design).  Some homes sit on the shoreline. Others are nestled on wooded lots, within residential villages or in-town locations overlooking Lake Michigan.

Square footage of the Showcase homes also varies from a 1,332 square foot condominium to a 5,900 square foot Egg Harbor home.
