…is the winner of The Superior Home Award in its category at this year’s Lee Building Industry Association (BIA) annual Parade of Homes event!

Our Cape Coral Home received the BEST in the following categories:

• Best Exterior
• Best Landscape
• Best Kitchen
• Best Bath
• Best Livability
• Best Interior Design
• Best Outdoor Living
• Best Pool

A panel of expert judges toured each home and awarded builders based on the above categories.

The event showcases premier area builders and homes with the latest in architectural design, construction, interior design, outdoor living, pool design, and other areas.

The 2011 event showcases more than 30 models ranging in price from $150,000 to over $5 million.

“We are thrilled to be recognized again this year” says Diane Van Arsdale, Director of Marketing & Sales, Aubuchon Team of Companies.

“It’s a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase the quality of homes our team builds. When visitors come through the home and start to envision themselves in their very own dream home, we get excited for them – especially when they experience the outdoor living area for the first time with the pool, spa, and spacious lanai. They start to think about the idea of living here and not up north in the cold. We are proud to support the Lee County Building Industry Association and very appreciative for the past honors and recognition that our homes have received from this event.”

The Parade of Homes runs now through February 20 and is free.

The Aubuchon Team of Companies has participated in the Parade of Homes for nearly 15 years, and has been recognized with a variety of awards for the majority of that time. The Sterling Collection also won The Superior Home Award in 2010 with their model, The 2010 Home of the Year.
