Homearama

It ‘s the Touring Edition of Homearama

July 21, 2016 By Dayton Most Metro

Charles Simms Market Street

From Dayton to Springboro, Harveysburg to Cedarville, this years Homearama will take you all over the Miami Valley in a tour of ten houses. Each of the homes showcase fine craftsmanship, the best of design, innovative efficiencies and the newest home products – all crafted by some of the area’s finest builders. The styles and lifestyles of these 10 homes include urban living, custom homes and elegant single family homes; all of which are professionally decorated and range in price from $129,000 to more than $1,500,000. The diversity of homes show that there is something for every lifestyle!

These homes have never been seen by the public previously and many homes are already sold, so this is the public’s only chance to view the interiors. The Homearama Touring Edition presented by Vectren will allow prospective home owners to experience the craftsmanship of our local home builders and show that there truly is something for every lifestyle.

To make the most of your Homearama experience, here are some touring tips:

Dayton Dwell – A Celebration of Home!

June 18, 2015 By Lisa Grigsby

The typical American home is around 2600 square feet, while the typical small or tiny house is around 100-400 square feet. Tiny Houses come in all shapes, sizes and forms but they focus on smaller spaces and simplified living. People are joining this movement for many reasons, but the most popular reasons are because of environmental concerns, financial concerns and seeking more time and freedom.

This weekend, as part of Homearam, the Colorado Springs based Tiny House Jamboree™ will have a few of these little dwellings be on display at the Hook Estate. Four professional Tiny House builders will be opening their homes for tiny tours and speaking throughout the weekend about the ins and outs of living small.

The 1929 Hook Estate’s 12,000 square foot mansion will also be conducting live demonstrations and tours with home preservation seminars and vendors. The entire event is family friendly and will allow attendees to experience, first-hand, Tiny House and historic living. You’ll find the Hook Estate at 1231 Hook Estate Dr in Dayton.

Show Dates & Times:

June 19, 2015: Noon – 9pm
June 20, 2015: Noon – 9pm
June 21, 2015: Noon – 7pm

The event is proudly supported and produced by a dedicated partnership between:

The Home Builders Association of Dayton (producers of Homearama)
The Tiny House Jamboree of Colorado Springs, CO.
Red Oak Productions presenting the Ohio Old House Fair at the historic Hook Estate.
The City of Dayton, Ohio

Homearama Luxury Edition Comes To Clearcreek Township

October 14, 2014 By Dayton Most Metro

The Home Builders Association of Dayton is excited to bring the 2014 Homearama Luxury Edition to Auteur Estates in Clearcreek Township in beautiful Warren County. With the incredibly harsh and long winter the Dayton area experienced at the end of last year and the beginning of this year’s building season, combined with an uptick in the Dayton region home building activity which has created a limited, skilled labor pool impacting schedules, the show, originally scheduled for September, will be delayed to October 17th through November 2. The complexity of the homes has not deterred the builders as they have been working feverishly with the recent months with improved weather conditions
