We are currently building a new phase at <a title="Lakestone" href="http://www.sharpresidential.com/AtlantaNeighborhoods/profile.asp?var_CID=1564" target="_blank">Lakestone</a> in Cherokee County. There are 40 new homesites to choose from, half of which are premium lake lots.</p>
<p>The new homes at Lakestone will include all the luxurious interior appointments Sharp Residential is known for, as well as a few extras. Vaulted ceilings, granite countertops, recessed can lighting, GE premium stainless appliances, stained cabinetry and split cooking are some of the features you&#8217;ll find inside your new home. Because the new homes at Lakestone are still under construction, there is still time for you to customize selections at the Sharp Residential Design Center.<span id="more-781"></span></p>
<p>Lakestone offers scenic lake views and plenty of fun activities for families. Aside from lakeside fun, families can enjoy a swimming pool and lighted tennis courts.</p>
<p>This community is located in Woodstock just minutes from I-575 and Highway 92, which means homeowners have easy access to local shopping and dining.</p>
<p>Children in the community attend Woodstock Elementary, Woodstock Middle and Woodstock High schools.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to see more of this community, we&#8217;ll soon be opening a new model home at this gorgeous community.</p>
<p>For more information on Lakestone, visit the <a title="Sharp Residential" href="http://www.sharpresidential.com/" target="_blank">Sharp Residential</a> website or email <a href="mailto:Lakestone@bellsouth.net" target="_blank">Lakestone@bellsouth.net</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://sharpresidentialblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Avensong_model_small.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-326" title="Sharp Residential" src="http://sharpresidentialblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Avensong_model_small-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a>At Sharp Residential, we take pride in building quality new homes that meet the needs of every buyer. Even though the market has been down recently, our contracts in the past 90 days have been at their highest numbers for 2011. Part of the reason for this sales success is our commitment to customization.</p>
<p>Because each homebuyer who comes to us has a different set of needs, we often customize the homes we build. One trend we continue to see is the removal of the two-story family room in lieu of an upstairs media room or home theater. As families continue to grow, we are also seeing an increase in the number of requests for finished basements and additional secondary bathrooms.</p>
<p>Another popular room is the kitchen. Our floor plans are spacious and inviting, which allow homeowners to entertain guests and host family gatherings. The kitchens in our homes now serve as living spaces instead of just cooking spaces. More homeowners are demanding larger kitchens with breakfast areas and keeping rooms.</p>
<p>All of our homes have several luxurious upgrades, including hardwood floors, which are becoming increasingly popular.</p>
<p>For the homeowner who wants to completely customize a home, we have a gorgeous Design Center. Buyers can work with our design consultant to pick out everything from the cabinets to the countertops.</p>
