FROM THE EDITOR

Home Life

OUR LIVING SPACES For each of us the creation of our living space and the things we surround ourselves with are an extension of our choices and individual preferences. Personality dictates everything indirectly, the patterns we will choose, the color we will prefer and the textures that we feel comfortable with. In each of us there exist an expression of style in our living spaces that is our own.

Our home designs evolve from childhood living spaces to individual choices that are shaped by our experiences, relationships and exposure to the world. We use our homes to make purposeful and deliberate statements about ourselves to reect our attitudes, our goals, our values and our roles and priorities. Our home in a sense says this is who I am and what matters me.

Our space needs to function in symphony with our lives and our family unit. For almost all of us our most personal space is our automobile because in society today there are few that are typically shared. Our homes are havens for both ourselves and our families and the choices we make are often driven by not only style but function and comfort as well.

Today living is about choices, we have so much to choose from when it comes to our personal spaces and how we wish to express ourselves. We are connected by technology and have a greater vision to a world of style and design that expose us to unlimited possibilities for our own personal expression of living.

Our new design at Homelife Magazine and our active relationship with New England Home Shows brings a fresh perspective to our readers and subscribers to encourage vision and exposure for your life and your journey to create your Home Life.

Organization is the art of having things in the right places in life so we may have easy access to them. A simple premise but in reality the lack of organization accounts for most of the wasted time in our lives. While it’s true that our phones and computers have organized our contacts, schedules, workflow and communications our living and working spaces have lagged well behind the trend.

I am perplexed why every home that has been built in the last 100 years makes little or no provisions for organization and function to accommodate all the things that we acquire in a life. So lets see, I am going to pay $350,000 for this great house, but there is no where to put anything I own where I can see it and have easy access to it. With all the other pressures of time in life you would think that seeing and finding things with ease would be a first priority for all of us each and every day.

THE FUTURE OF

HOME TECHNOLOGY

by Lauren DiCenso

Who would have known that “The Jetsons” had it right? The concept of a “smart home” is one that’s increasingly becoming a reality. However, today’s real smart homes might not be exactly what most people imagined half a century ago. Robots and flying cars may not have penetrated the market yet, but these new innovative home technology products are a stepping stone towards it.

Here are some incredible pieces of home technology that are reshaping homeownership:

ACCENTUATING YOUR SPACE

By Laurie Cote

Using Shelving, Art and Unique Finds to Decorate Your Home Your home is an extension of you, it flaunts your style and exhibits your individuality. Now look around you, are you happy with what you see?

A feature wall in your home can demonstrate your personal touches and can be added anywhere that makes sense to you. A few common and practical places are built-ins, fireplace walls, or behind a sofa. It should be the main wall in the room you are decorating and keep in mind, high contrast walls work best.

Adding drama or interest to your home can easily be done on any budget. One low-cost way is by painting an accent wall.

Big, bold colors don’t have to be scary, if you love lime green, use it, just make sure to use the same color in your other décor items. Consider using it on pillows, ottomans, shelfs, curtains, candles, the list of accent items is as endless as your imagination and remember, “It’s ONLY paint.”

If you’re looking for dramatic style you might consider adding wallpaper. Patterned with stripes, geometrics or a strong texture wallpaper makes a statement all on its own.

(And YES, it is making a strong comeback.)

Depending on the style of your home you might opt for a wood accent wall. A budget-friendly option such as using free pallets for the backdrop make smart sense. Alternatively, building shelving from the pallets is a great way to display your finds or collections.

Natural stone comes in easy to use slab tiles to create a highly textured, highly sophisticated look on any wall. The tiles can be used with or without grout and are often easy to use.

Use your imagination and remember it’s ONLY paint! #HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE

Fabric can also make an easily interchangeable accent wall. By wrapping thin board such as gator board or foam core can be easily hung using 3M Command Strips or Velcro. These can be rewrapped or replaced season to season.

Gallery walls are fun to put together and for the right space, still very much in style for 2018. We’re not talking of your mother’s stairway displaying each child’s photos from kindergarten through adulthood. Instead, the new gallery style wall can be as eclectic as you want. Mixed frames, sizes, textures and subjects can lead to a wall of fascination.

HERE ARE A FEW DO’S AND DON’TS WHEN CREATING A GALLERY WALL: • Use odd numbered groupings (3, 5, 7, etc…) automatically this now shows it is a grouping versus a bunch of random items.

• Mix textures. glass, metal, wood, fabrics, each different piece adds to its effect.

• Consider a focal point. This piece can be large and centered, or off to one side. A mirror or piece of art is a great starting point.

• Mix shapes and sizes. Those groupings add interest and show creativity.

If you’re new to decorating in this style, play it safe. Cut out your shapes from poster board, or paper and using painters tape, arrange them on your wall. This will avoid unnecessary nail holes and allow you the flexibility of rearranging before you make a final plan.

By Bee Heinemann Whether you are downsizing into retirement or simply want to live in the midst of the excitement of a big city, urban living tends to mean more excitement and less square footage.

In order to maximize your available space, so that even a small condo looks spacious and comfortable, there are certain design and decorating rules that you should follow: Design in any Small Space The key to designing in a small space is to make

#HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE

sure that the furniture and decor fit the room. With less space, you have to be more creative. Sofa beds, instead of couches, turn into instant guest quarters. Nesting side tables instead of a big coffee table turn into instant extra space for putting down a martini. Benches with storage inside them do double duty as extra seating and a great way to hide a little clutter.

[24]

Avoid Clutter Clutter only serves to make a small space look even smaller!

Avoid it at all costs by making sure that everything in your home has its own home and don’t let piles of things drag in entryways or on chairs.

Maximize any available dead space— under the stairs, for example—by turning it into usable storage space.

Make good use of light and mirrors NEHOMELIFE.COM

If you have a lot of natural light coming into your space, leverage it by using delicate, flowing window treatments and strategically positioned mirrors. These reflect the light and give the impression of a larger space, tricking the eye into thinking there is more depth than there actually is. Place a mirror next to a window or directly across from it to create the effect you want!

Keep prints to a minimum and offset them with solids.

If you have a thing for wild and colorful prints, just keep in mind that too much of even a good thing can simply be too much. The ideal design, if you are going to use prints in your upholstery or throw cushions, is to keep some continuity in your color scheme and pick up a shade of your print in a wall accent, like the elegant and simple textures of Vänt Wall Panels. The colors will blend together without being overwhelming to the eye.

ENTER TO WIN A

WALL PANEL HEADBOARD

Specifics for a small living room Avoid darker shades of paint on the walls. You can definitely do an accent wall in a bolder color, but all four walls in navy blue will be oppressive. The same is true for ceiling colors: keep it light relative to the wall color, to give the impression of openness; even if the ceilings are low, it won’t feel dark and small. One great tip is to match your wall color to the larger pieces of furniture in the room; that way, the latter blend in more and seem smaller as a result. For flooring, you should also keep it relatively neutral, with splashes of color in throw rugs. If you want to avoid heavy bookshelves, try floating shelves, anchored to the wall.

Rules for a tiny bedroom You can, once again, use color to give a sense of space: keep it light or neutral on the walls and the ceiling! To furnish a small bedroom, the key is to avoid pieces that are too large and cumbersome. Skip the full head and foot board and add instead Vänt Wall Panels, at the head.

They are easy to install, look wonderful and take little space! Plus, they can add a pop of color that breaks up the neutral wall a little, making a visual focal point that delights. Streamline your linens so that colors and textures are uniform. You don’t want a red bedspread with orange pillows and faux fur throws, all mixed together, in a tiny space! It’s just too much for the eye to take in!

Bristol County Living Massachusetts

By Mary Louise Hullett

NEW BEDFORD, MA

[31]

WESTPORT, MA

History | Bristol County was named after the English port city of Bristol in southwestern England. Bristol, Massachusetts (now Bristol, Rhode Island) was the county seat until it was transferred in 1747 to Rhode Island.

After Bristol was transferred to RI, Taunton was made the county seat.

Bristol County Massachusetts is home to over 550,000 residents, making it the third largest county in Eastern Massachusetts with a land area of over 550 square miles. The county’s largest cities- New Bedford, Fall River, Taunton, and Attleboro- are home to over 300,000 residents on only 25% of the counties land area. The remaining 400 + square miles comprise 250,000 residents in rural towns and villages has far less population density. Because of this Bristol County has more open space, parks, beaches and opportunity for growth than any other region in Eastern Massachusetts.

Location and Value | As the state of Massachusetts grows it is becoming apparent to all that most of the open space for new homes and fair values on existing homes lies in the Southeast region. What makes Bristol County one of the state’s “hot spots” is simple, affordable #HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE

home values paired with level taxes and proximity. Whether you are working in greater Boston, Rhode Island or Southeastern MA, commuting is easy from this region. Bristol County is close to Rhode Island and Boston with easy access to major highways, Amtrak and the MBTA and airports.

A look at The Numbers | By 2025, 170,000 new homes are expected to be built statewide in Massachusetts with over 43% of them in rural Southeast Massachusetts cities and towns. With better tax incentives and development deals, many companies from greater Boston as well as, out-of-state have relocated here. The newest and most telling trend is the increase in north to south commuter traffic both on highways and public transportation. South Coast rail will finally work economically as a two-way street, driven by steady growth in both population and industry in the Bristol County region.

Housing Cost That is Affordable With Metro Boston home prices now over $450,000 and Bristol County averaging $280,000 homebuyers migrating south to Bristol County incur a 35% savings in housing cost. In Lakeville, Mansfield, and Attleboro the MBTA connection to greater Boston market has opened up new opportunities [32]

for families to live in Bristol County towns. Easy access through public transportation to great jobs in the metro Boston market has already lead to sustained growth in the region. Add the quality of life, affordable homes, open space and access to great schools, shopping and far less traffic than metro Boston markets and you have a formula for growth that’s unmatched in the state.

A Look at Bristol County Regions | There are 20 cities and towns in the county with the northern region comprising Attleboro, North Attleboro, Mansfield, Norton, Easton, Raynham, and Taunton. In the central county area Seekonk, Rehoboth, Dighton, Berkley, Freetown, Somerset, Swansea and along the South Coast, Fall River, Westport, Dartmouth, New Bedford, Acushnet, and Fairhaven. Each region has options for city and rural country living and unique communities that offer many options for both existing homes, new construction, and stately historic homes at reasonable price points. Whether it is small city living, rural country living, oceanside or lakeside communities or even small farms or equestrian properties, the region offers up some of the most diverse choices anywhere in New England.

Vacation Homes

Vacation / Retirement Living in New England

By TR Branco There are over 10,000 boomers reaching retirement age every day, this trend will continue for the next 15+ years. The single most prevalent question on the minds of most is where to live in retirement. For many, warm weather locations are at the top of the list but for a growing number of retirees, living in New England with four distinct seasons is becoming a top choice.

Today, the 65 and older demographic is healthier, fitter and more active than ever. They are far less likely to be found sitting on a beach cooking in the hot sun and much more likely to be hiking, biking, skiing, and playing golf. In New England, there are endless choices for living in small rural seaside communities and throughout Northern New England there are spectacular mountainside and lakeside homes.

It’s no secret that for decades affluent families in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and the MidAtlantic have for generations maintained second

homes throughout New England for winter and summer vacations. So, could it be that the reverse snowbird movement has gained momentum in the last 10 years, the answer is a resounding yes!

The idea of being close to the very best healthcare facilities in the world, some of the finest and most historic culture in the world and even close to family, have a lot of retirees convinced that New England is indeed a great place to retire. The seasons, the seafood, the mountains, lakes, and beaches are some of the best in the world not to mention some spectacular islands scattered off our coastlines.

Today with Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway and other vacation home rental companies there are endless choices to be anywhere you wish for a week, month or even a year. Retire in New England and travel anywhere in the world anytime you wish sounds pretty enticing to many. Here are a few tips and a few places we think you may want to consider.

Try Before You Buy Rent or visit a region often and during different seasons. Get a feel for the area and what it has to offer.

When you’re there, live like a resident, not a tourist.

Would the Location Make a Good Rental You may want to rent seasonally to offset cost while you are traveling to other destinations. Give yourself options.

Consider the Investment Potential Buying a retirement home in New England has distinct advantages over vacation markets in southern states. New England real estate markets will offer much more stable values in your investment and often great returns.

Create a Family Retreat for Generations Families throughout the country have maintained vacation homes in New England handed down from generation to generation. These homes have become lifetime centers of great family times and memories.

Fencing Materials PROS AND CONS

Today, there are a wide variety of material choices for fences.

The purpose of the fence will be a big factor in selecting the best material to use. Whether you choose wood, vinyl, metal or another fencing material, you’ll want to know the pros and cons, cost, style and durability of each of the materials.

To help you get started, consider these popular materials to find the type of fencing that will work best for your budget, purpose and your time.

Wood Fencing PROS: An all-time favorite. Attractive and usually inexpensive. Very versatile and come in a variety of designs and styles. Can be painted any color you like or stained. Pressure treated wood, usually pine or fir, is less likely to warp and should last for years.

CONS: Requires regular maintenance that can become expensive; may rot or warp due to excess moisture; termites and other pests may lead to destructive infestations.

Redwood PROS: Beautiful, natural softness and luster, naturally resist insects, decay, shrinking, and warping.

Will Your Next Ride BE A LAWN MOWER?

By Louise Hullett

Is it time to go from push to ride?

If your lawn has outgrown your push lawn mower, it’s probably time to consider purchasing a riding lawn mower or if your lawn is fairly large, a garden tractor. Riding lawn mowers can be expensive so do your homework before running out and purchasing the first pretty one you see.

Riding lawn mowers/tractors are a lot like cars. There are a lot of makes and models available. You have your basic, no-frills models--the featureloaded, power-packed high-end models--and everything in between.

Many features can be add-ons, but before purchasing, make sure the mower you have selected can handle the added feature(s). Here are some things to consider.

The size of your lawn can help determine the type of mower, blade size, and engine HP you need. More

#HOMEOWNERLIFESTYLE

powerful mowers with larger cut widths handle large areas more efficiently and allow you to spend less time mowing. You should also consider the type of terrain whether it’s level or hilly and the obstacles such as trees and flower beds you need to work around.

There are four types of riding lawn mowers:

Traditional riding lawn mower – This is the most straigh�orward or basic of the riding lawn mowers. If you will be using it just for cutting grass, a riding lawn mower is fine. They have several attachment options, but don’t expect it to do any heavy lifting or pulling. If you will be using the mower to pull ground attachments, such as a plow, disc harrow or tiller, you will need a garden tractor.

ZTR mower (also known as Zero-Turn Mower) – The zero-turn riding lawn mower looks like any other, except that they have a turning radius of zero, which means it turns or rotates on the spot. These are perfect for tight spaces, sharp turns, and smaller properties.

Lawn Tractors look like any other riding lawn mower, but are more powerful and come with optional attachments. You can bag clippings and leaves, haul landscaping materials, spread seed and with some models aerate, dethatch and remove snow.

Garden tractors have the same design as lawn tractors but a heavier frame and transmission, larger rear wheels, and are also appropriate for larger mowing jobs. Residential garden tractors can pull a tiller, cultivator, thatcher or other ground-engaging tools behind it.

• For 1/2 to 1 acre lawn- you’ll want a riding lawn mower with a cutting width of up to 42” and at least a 14 HP engine.

• For 1 - 2 acres — For yards in this size range, a riding lawn mower with a 42” or 46” deck and an engine in the 14 - 16 HP is necessary.

• For 3 acres or more —If your estate is in this extra-large lawn grouping, you are indeed fortunate.

For this size lawn, you’ll want a garden tractor with a 46” - 54” deck and an engine of 18 - 24 HP.

Whichever mower you choose just make sure it suits your needs, your budget, and lawn size. Don’t buy a small ride-on to save money when you know you have a large area that needs to be mowed; it isn’t going to do the job properly and will ultimately leave you feeling annoyed and frustrated.

Buy a Minivan or SUV

2018 Honda Odyssey $29,900 -$45,000 The 2018 Honda Odyssey ranked #1 in Minivans. The new generation of the Odyssey is a home run. Agile handling and a strong V6 engine make the Odyssey a blast to drive, which you probably don’t expect from a minivan. The Odyssey is a great value proposition with outstanding amenities and a high-class cabin.

2018 Chrysler Pacifica $28,995 - $44,995 The Pacifica is much better than the Chrysler Town & Country minivan it replaced. The 3.6-liter V6 engine, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, provides ample power and gets an impressive 21 mpg overall. Handling is responsive, the ride is comfortable, and the cabin is quiet.

Minivans: Benefits and Drawbacks The minivan offers many benefits, and on a practical level, it probably has more notches in the “pro” column than an SUV. The biggest benefits relate to ease of use. For instance, because of their low ground clearance, minivans are easy to get in and out of -- a big deal when you’re trying to transport toddlers and all their gear. For winter travel

[60]

only one Mini Van offers all-wheel drive, Toyota. If that is important than you may be better served by a SUV. Choices of styles and features are limited with Mini vans and they do all look alike. Just the same sliding doors make for easy loading and unloading and compartment storage is better than a SUV. If you have lots of people to haul or a lot of gear to haul the Mini Van is a solid choice.

When you have to carry a crowd of family or friends, there are two routes you can go: Minivan or 3-row SUV. Each has its plusses and minuses in terms of cost, performance, style, and capability, so you need to look at all of those factors when making a decision. First, let’s take care of the elephant in the room. Yes, minivans come with a certain stigma and SUV’s are easier on the eye with their sporty style.

SUVs: Benefits and Drawbacks Capability is one SUV benefit that immediately springs to mind. Nearly all SUVs offer or come standard with allwheel or 4-wheel drive, making them an easy choice for northern families.

And go-anywhere styling solves the image problem created by minivans.

Most important, drivers have more choices with SUVs. While there are only a few vans on the market, SUV shoppers can choose among dozens of SUVs -- big or small, gasoline, hybrid or diesel. SUV drivers also can choose among many upscale models, a segment lacking in the minivan realm.

Of course, the SUV has drawbacks.

They aren’t as easy for loading up the kids or their goods. They can be more expensive. They’re almost always

less efficient. Some drivers prefer the choices of the SUV market coupled with the availability of all or 4-wheel drive, over the practicality of the minivan. And the SUV’s better image certainly doesn’t hurt.

Here are a few popular choices in each category by New England Homelife that are consumer favorites and highly ranked by all the consumer review sites. The most important thing in any major car purchasing decision is understanding your needs as an individual and a family. It is wise to look ahead as well as most consumers today are driving their cars well after payments have ended. Not having car payments means you have the ability to save money, which is critical to us all if we are looking to the future.

The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee $30,695 $43,395 has something that appeals to everyone. With a good combination of comfortable highway handling and fantastic off-road performance. The Grand Cherokee comes with the Uconnect infotainment interface, which is regarded as one of the best systems on the market

2018 Toyota 4Runner $34,500 $45,000 The 2018 Toyota 4Runner is all about utility, with stupendous off-roading abilities and lots of cargo space. The 4Runner is built for adventures.

If you lead an active lifestyle, you’ll appreciate its durable, spacious interior. This is also one of the few SUVs in this price range that can rumble over a rugged trail with a crew of seven onboard.
