Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4 are the last chances to tour the brand new houses in the showcase, which features nearly a dozen participating builders. The 2015 Saratoga Showcase of Homes is celebrating its 20th anniversary and spans three fall weekends each year. Over 3,000 attendees have already visited these houses over the past two weekends.
The area’s award-winning builders participating are: Bella Home Builders, Belmonte Builders, Bordeau Builders, Executive Builders, Heritage Custom Builders, McPadden Builders, Marini Homes, Saratoga Builders, Stillwater Landings, The Michael’s Group and Witt Construction, which has two homes in the showcase. The Showcase of Homes is an excellent opportunity to see what’s trending when it comes to home layout, design and interior decorating, as well as the chance to see different styles of bathrooms, kitchens, landscaping,
and more. The show provides many great ideas for anyone planning on remodeling their home, building a home or buying a home in the future. This annual community event has contributed nearly $900,000 to local charities over the years. The proceeds from the Saratoga Showcase of Homes will benefit Rebuilding Together Saratoga County (rebuildingtogethersaratoga.org) and Habitat for Humanity of Northern Saratoga, Warren and Washington Counties (glensfallshabitat.org).
