Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

The Boston Society of Architects has selected Olmsted Hill Residences, designed by CBT Architects Inc., for recognition in the 2013 John M. Clancy Award for Socially Responsible Housing. Olmsted Hill, completed in 2012, is recognized for excellence in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of socially responsible housing.

The award was established in 2004 by the principals of Boston architecture firm Goody Clancy. The intent of the award is to recognize and honor the decades of creative commitment John Clancy FAIA brought to the planning, design, and construction of multifamily housing for diverse populations at all income levels. Projects eligible for the award include residencies completed and occupied since 2002 that are multifamily in nature and provide for low- or moderate-income residents as a major portion of the project.

As a subdivision of the Fisher Hill Estate, Olmsted Hill was named after the neighborhoods original designer, Frederick Law Olmsted. CBT Architects worked with Brooklines New Atlantic Development to bring more than 24 affordable housing units to the site of a former reservoir. The Olmsted Hill Residences are developed on a site surrounded by single-family homes, a luxury condominium development and a college campus. The 24 affordable housing units were planned as three buildings intending to appear as an estate, consisting of a Main House, a Guest House and a Gate House.

CBT incorporated pitched shingle roofs, clapboard and shingle siding, porches, and dormer windows to fit the development into an area of expensive homes while still adhering to the projects budget.

The three award levels offered by the BSA for Socially Responsible Housing are Honor Level, Award Level and Citation Level. The level of award that Olmsted Hill has received is undisclosed and will be announced at the BSAs Annual Award Gala on Jan. 30, 2014, at the InterContinental Hotel in Boston.

Cincinnati, Ohio (PRWEB) October 13, 2013

Home renovations are one cost that many homeowners like to plan for in advance of hiring a qualified contractor. Locating prices for services is one of the drawbacks that property owners experience when searching multiple companies. The Real Estate News Wire has published its cheap kitchen remodel hotline online at 1-888-366-9838. This national number now links local contractors with property owners at http://realestatenewswire.com/kitchen-remodels-done-right.

According to real estate housing data, one of the most important aspects of selling a home to a new buyer is the design and appearance of a kitchen. Most homeowners who have lived in a home longer than five years often seek ways to improve the value by making upgrades to the interior.

A property owner searching in a local area for a contractor could be disappointed by a lack of specialists available in a certain area especially in rural areas of the country, according to the RealEstateNewsWire.com company.

The renovation number online now established was created to provide an easier way for the average person to ask questions about pricing and construction details prior to hiring a professional.

Some websites online require homeowners to pay a monthly or annual fee to read reviews of specific companies able to provide construction or contracting services. This toll-free hotline is helping to remove these fees.

"Getting expert assistance in the beginning can help any property owner to plan a budget accordingly and lessen the risk of hiring a company that is unqualified or unable to finish a remodeling job on time or on budget," a source from the Real Estate News Wire company said.

The RealEstateNewsWire.com website has introduced a number of different programs and referral services for owners of properties in 2013. This company recently published one of the most comprehensive guides to avoiding foreclosure online for consumers to access. This guide was coupled with a foreclosure assistance hotline.

"We're creating easily accessible solutions for any owner of a property seeking helpful reviews, services or other information during the buying, remodeling and selling process for any home," the source added.

The Real Estate News Wire website now features direct reviews of housing companies and other service providers to introduce services to homeowners as well as provide little-known information about buying or selling properties apart from the traditional chain of using real estate agents in the U.S.
