WelcomeWelcomeWelcomeWelcome to Sage Homes’ Blue
Heron model, designed to be a
healthy and water-, energy-, and
space-efficient place for your
family to call home while being
able to evolve with your changing
family needs over time. Join us as
we take a tour of your new home.
❶ Porch. As you approach our
home, note the front porch—a
warm welcome to family and
guests alike. Did you notice the
lack of steps or the slope to the
walkway? The benefits of
Universal Design are meant to be
enjoyed by everyone. When they
look and feel this good, it’s easy.
❷ Foyer. Welcome Home. Enjoy the
panoramic view through the Great Room
and Lanai to the Nautilus Pool and
Florida Friendly Landscaping beyond.
Take note of the sidelight on the door you
just came through—it is actually a hinged
unit, opening to give easy access for
moving in large pieces of furniture, yet
taking much less room than a big six foot
double door. Saved space here in the
foyer allows for more elbow room in
adjoining spaces.
❸ Den—Flexible space. We chose to
outfit this space as a Home Office. A craft
room? A fourth bedroom? Or perhaps a
formal dining room? How will you use
the space?
❹ Third Bedroom. We’ve decorated
this room to house two. Are they your
children or grandchildren? Note the
storage space over the closet—bet they
make it a treehouse.
❺ Hallway. Thanks to efficient design
and planning, it’s really the only one in the
house.
❻ Guest Bath. Equipped with water
saving fixtures from American Standard™,
it features a double vanity with a bank of
drawers, linen closet, dual medicine
cabinets, comfort-height commode and
glass-enclosed tiled shower.
❼ Flexible Space. Shown as the second
bedroom, available configurations include
the addition of a third bath to create a
guest suite.
❽ Niche. Why? To draw your attention
to the space beyond. As shown, this is a
great place for a desk or the bureau, or it
could be configued as a walk-in closet
(remove the existing closet to enlarge the
room) or as a Pool Bath creating a
Guest Suite. Read the framed poster
on the wall to see more details on a
few of the available configurations.
❾Great Room. The tray ceiling with
crown molding, recessed lights and
ceiling fan are all standard, as is the
view through the sliders.
❿ Kitchen. Our gourmet kitchen is
shown equipped with GE Energy Star
appliances, custom low-VOC
cabinets, granite counter tops and
wood shelves in the walk-in pantry. The
center island houses a neat microwave
drawer, and the sink island has a bar top
with space for stools for kids & guests to
be a part of the fun in the kitchen while
keeping out of the cook’s way.
⓫ Family Dining Room. Rather than a
rarely-used formal dining room, we’ve
enlarged the nook into what we call a
family dining room. At the planning
phase, the rear wall can easily be pushed
two feet to the rear to accommodate even
larger family gatherings.
⓬ Lanai. At 22’ x 12’ we hope it’s big
enough for you. With an area behind the
dining room to set up a grille you’ll have
plenty of space to enjoy time with family &
friends in our wonderful sub-tropical
weather. That is why we’re here after all,
isn’t it?

⓭ Storage. Do you want a pool? Here’s
the place to keep all the paraphernalia a
pool entails. Don’t want a pool? Use it
for storage, as a potting shed, or perhaps
make the lanai even bigger. Don’t forget
the optional third bathroom. So many
possibilities in this space.
⓮ Master Bedroom. How’s this for a
place to end your day? Spacious without
being cavernous, there’s plenty of room
for the king-size bed under the standard
tray ceiling. The bay adds architectural
interest as well as a little extra space to curl
up & read while the rest of your family is
watching something you’d rather not….
The Bahama-style shutters do a great job
of keeping out afternoon sun and heat
while admitting light & a breeze in this
southwest corner of our home. The lanai
door is equipped with mini-blinds between
the panes of glass, providing privacy when
needed, and admitting light & a great view
when not.
⓯ Master Bath. Roman tub, no-step
shower. Interesting (if unconventional)
vanity. Open to the bath commode. Did
you notice the wide doors throughout the
house? How about the lowered light
switches and raised outlets? What you
can’t see are the bathroom walls blocked
for grab bars should the need arise in the
hopefully-distant future. All elements of
Universal Design, they make the home
easier for everyone to use, as well as
adaptable to your changing needs. If it
isn’t for you, the commode and shower
can be easily enclosed and the vanity
outfitted with standard cabinets. All at no
charge. How’s that for flexible?
⓰ Master Closet. The wooden shelves
are an upgrade, but they sure look good,
don’t they? Even in standard wire, the
layout is the same and customizable to suit
your needs. Walk to the far end of the
closet and turn around - we’ve got your
luggage space right here. Did you notice
the light overhead isn’t on? That glowing
round disk on the ceiling is a Velux Sun
Tunnel. Lots of free daylight, no extra
heat. There’s another one in the kitchen
too.
Wander back through the master suite
and kitchen, and make a right when you
reach the foyer. Here you see the keypad
for the alarm system and a hall closet,
located for easy access when entering via
the front door or from the garage.
Around to your left we have the...
⓱ Desk Area. A great place to drop your
bags as you enter, to charge your phone,
pay the bills, sort the mail, even put on
your shoes.
⓲ Laundry Room. Natural daylight.
Fresh air. Housework isn’t nearly so
dreary when it isn’t being done in a closet!
Off the beaten path from the garage to the
rest of the house, here you have a nice
countertop to work on, a laundry tub, and
lots of extra storage. Not just cabinets.
Walk out to the window, turn around &
look up. Welcome to your Florida
basement. We never think you can have
enough storage space!
⓳ Garage. We designed this garage to
house three full-size vehicles, while
providing enough extra storage space to
accommodate bicycles, lawnmowers and
yard tools around the corner. But we’ll get
to that. Look to the front corner - note
the Linear central vacuum system. The
little white door on the back wall is the
Manabloc plumbing system—think of it as
a breaker panel for water—if you have a
problem with any fixture in the house, you
can turn it off from here. Just that fixture.
When you’re heading out of town you can
go ahead and turn them all off. To the left
of that, the blue & stainless R2D2-looking
thing is the GE Geo-Spring heat pump
water heater. It cools the garage as it heats
the water, saving you money in the
process. Payback is estimated at three
years. Okay, now look up. The drop stair
leads to an 8’x15’ plywood-floored attic
storage space. Never enough. Since we
used spray foam insulation throughout this
home, the attic spaces are within a degree
or two of the air you’re breathing—so your
stuff in the attic won’t cook either. See
those garage door operators? Ask a
salesperson for a test drive—they’re really
neat. The floor finish and overhead
storage racks are optional.
⓴ Shop space/storage area. Never
enough storage—did I mention that? Have
a boat on a trailer? With a few changes to
the plans, we can make this area wider to
accommodate it. The double doors allow
you to take your toys out of the garage
without moving your car first.
