Grand Prairie boasts first Good Housekeeping Seal home
06:51 AM CDT on Friday, September 8, 2006
It's a landmark partnership, and now you can see the results.
The first home in America with the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval is now open for viewing on Waterford Drive in Grand Prairie's Grand Peninsula community.
As a collaboration with K. Hovnanian Homes, the two-story, 4,625-square-foot model home boasts four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a wine cellar and a stacked stone double staircase.
It's stocked with Good Housekeeping Seal products, including Flavia coffee makers, Comfort Solutions mattresses, Acme Bricks, Shaw carpets and Wolmanized Outdoor Wood. The price tag is $395,000.
The home was designed and merchandised by Dallas designer Jill Esteb of JE Design Group residential interiors consulting service.
Most of the furniture in the Charleston III model home came from Wrangler Home by Flexsteel.
Visit the house for free from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Sundays.
The Grand Peninsula community is near Joe Pool Lake off Great Southwest Parkway and I-20.
