SCHUMACHER HOMES HOLDS GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY FOR GREAT GREEN GIVEAWAY WINNER’S HOME
LINCOLNTON, N.C. (July 1, 2010) – Schumacher Homes, a leading on your lot custom home builder, broke ground yesterday in Lincolnton, N.C. at the future 20-acre home site of Wray and Sarah Warner, winners of the builder’s Great Green Giveaway contest.
Through the giveaway, the Warner family won The Designed Exterior by Ply Gem building package, valued at up to $30,000, including energy efficient aluminum clad wood windows, insulated vinyl siding, polymer hand-split shakes, stone veneer and accessories. Products included in this prize package are NAHB (National Association of Home Builders) Research Center Green Approved for energy efficient, low maintenance attributes. The Warner family is applying the package to a 2-story Craftsman style home, which was custom designed with the help of the Warners, the Schumacher design team, Ply Gem and architectural firm BSB Design.
“This groundbreaking celebrates the hard work of everyone involved in the contest, the design and the build, so I think I speak on behalf of the entire team when I say we can’t wait to see the beauty of this home come to life,” said Paul Schumacher, founder of Schumacher Homes.
The home is slated for completion in mid-November 2010.
