Rooms With A View and Other Advantages at Grand Bend at Green Bay
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008
Evanston’s Grand Bend at Green Bay has a lot going for it–a glamorously curved piece of world-class architecture that boasts unique, amenity-rich condominiums on six floors. There is an extensive list of features that would make even the most discerning buyer pause for a second look. But each of the building’s 49 units offer a feature that is fast becoming a highly desired necessity–especially for those who depend on their homes to offer a place of solace where one can regroup and recharge. It’s terraces and balconies. Those simple, previously underutilized extensions of living space that are fast becoming a hot item in our furiously urbanizing world.
TERRACES AND BALCONIES
…Conjure Happy Memories. Maybe it’s happy memories of spaces like these that make them suddenly so very desirable. A grandmother’s welcoming front porch, a screened-in sleeping room at a lake house, or a patio that provided access to our childhood home’s backyard. Whatever the reason, outdoor rooms like these offer us relaxation and leisure, and even a modestly sized space can offer us a utopia at the end of the day. Grand Bend has innovatively worked access to the outdoors into every condominium offered–covered balconies on the floors 2, 3 and 4 and magnificent, sprawling terraces on floors 5 and 6.
…Offer Endless Opportunities for Expanded Living Areas. The outdoor rooms at Grand Bend offer the buyer endless opportunities to plan, stage, furnish and plant this additional living space–all easily customizable to fit each homeowner’s requirements. It may be a simple solution that does no more than draw the eye to a resting point at the furthest distance outside the interior–a neat trick that fools the viewer into thinking “this place is enormous!” (more…)
