Flynner Homes - The Way Homes Used to be Built!
A Flynner Home incorporates traditional craftsman style architecture, historical details and a sense of community into each home. We at Flynner Homes’ utilize sustainable materials and updated floor plans for a traditional feel, fitting right into today’s new urban neighborhoods.

Talk About Boise Real Estate Curb Appeal!
Flynner Homes’ meets the expectations of “True” craftsman style exterior details, which accentuate curb appeal and a timeless era. These exterior details can be seen in three unique ways:

24 inch long eves, which protect the home from Mother Nature and enhance the architecture and form of the home.
A large covered porch, which conveys a community atmosphere and invites you to sit and relax.
The face of the garage sits back off the front of the home placing the emphasis back on the architecture of the home, not the garage.

Specializing in “Arts & Crafts” Interiors!
You will notice immediately after walking into a Flynner Home the quality workmanship and handcrafted beauty of extensive millwork and decor. Stylish colors hit you instantly as spacious rooms glow in rare earth tones. Rich wood floors are plentiful. Beadboard wainscoting, fully wrapped windows and custom built-ins can be found throughout. Other details include granite countertops, slate backsplashes, tile floors, shaker cabinets and Tiffany lighting. Flynner Homes’ carries the Energy Star symbol, which adds a sense of comfort and peace of mind knowing your home is well constructed and well insulated.

Be Pleasantly Surprised!
So, you have driven by a Flynner Home. Wonder what’s inside?

Exterior elements of a Flynner Home move inside, bringing the outside in, completing the home in a virtual ebb and flow.
Arts and crafts entry ways are standard and garnish a Flynner Home with extensive hand- crafted finish work and designed for that particular room.
Fixtures and appliances are hand picked according to a the motif of the home and adds to the beauty and fulfillment you will feel when you walk into a Flynner Home.

It just feels right!
The quality and dependability of materials used on the outside of a Flynner Home are also on the inside. By concentrating on value instead of production, our homes are unique, aesthetically pleasing and makes an owner proud to have went with a Flynner Home for their Boise real estate needs.

Hand-Built Value
Knowing what to look for in a new home is difficult, at best, to grasp. Having it handing to you in every aspect, is unexpected. A Flynner Home will surprise you, will make you feel at home, will make you feel at peace and will satisfy you for years to come. Simply concentrating on design is not enough.

A Flynner Home needs to have a theme, a sense that every little detail fits and comes together as one and a feeling that nothing is out of place. A Flynner Home is not on a tight schedule, competing with the dozen per month builders. We don’t rush quality, and that adds value. By taking the time to use finish carpentry instead of store bought, and mill work instead of style numbers from a catalog, you will actually see the heart and soul put into each project every time, in every home.

We are not striving to be a big builder, simply a great builder.

7 Ways to Add Value to Exterior Elevations

Main / Building Value into Boise Real Estate

The evolution of practical elements into ornament is one of the primary problems of the McMansion

Since entering into the building industry I have been frustrated by the fact that developers and their CCRs/ACCs have been controlling the way in which the builders design the exteriors of their homes, insisting on a certain percentage of stone on the front elevation or a minimum number of front facing gables or roof line changes. I understand they are trying to keep a certain standard in their communities, but instead of enforcing basic design principals and sustainable materials they enforce rules that don’t make sense.

Marianne Cusato explains it as “The evolution of practical elements into ornament is one of the primary problems of the McMansion. When elements defy material limits or common sense, we subconsciously know that something is wrong, even if we can’t put our finger on why”.

The first rule of house design goes back to common sense: keep it simple and remember that less is more. Here are 7 ways to help keep it simple:

Eliminate snout nose garages. You by now probably know that snouts are one of my pet peeves. Every homeowner would rather come home to their home, not their garage!
Minimize the number of gables. One or two are fine, but more than that is typically too many.
Use color and texture rather than additional elements. Using colors and texture in horizontal bands rather than vertical strips like wallpaper.
Build sustainable buildings. Design houses that are timeless, that homeowners will want to maintain over time.
Ask yourself, “Could it work?” Use exterior materials for what they are meant to be used for and ask your self if they make sense. Could the shutters close? Using stone for window trim?
Vertically proportioned windows. Most windows have a ratio of 1:2 or 3:5. Single or double hung windows add more value than sliders.
Be consistent. Decide on one theme and use it throughout the entire exterior. Dressing up just the front elevation of the house looks and feels cheap.
