Meet the Shores
Dick and Patrice Shore
521 Swingabout
Stoney Point
Year built: 2003
Dick and Patrice Shore contacted Jim Beard Homes in early 2002 to help them
select an ideal lot in the Stoney Point development on Lake Greenwood. Jim and
Lee then helped them design and place their home on the site. The hillcrest
location and views of the lake and golf course required special consideration.
Clearing and grading the lot properly enhanced these amazing views and provided
contours in the backyard. This enabled the Shores to install a waterfall and
reflecting pond.

After a steady stream of visitors, they decided they needed more space. They
interviewed several remodeling firms whose ideas involved destruction of the
first floor in order to add an additional bedroom, bath and bonus room to the
second story. They consulted with Lee and decided that Jim Beard Homes would
again be the best fit for them, using their insights and experience to
effectively design the much-needed space and maintain the integrity of the
original house.
While the Shores went on a cruise, their attic space was transformed into an
additional 1,400 sq. ft. of beautiful, functional space. The rear covered porch
became a permanent sunroom and a new screen porch and deck were added.
The Shores couldn't be more pleased. "Everything looks like it was always part
of the original plan of the house."

| Foundations and Footings |

I've built over 350 homes and
I'm proud to say that not one of my homes has had a basement leak. Not many
builders can state that as a fact. Here's how I would build a foundation for my
own house and why I will do the same for you.
