A truly well-designed home showcases a specific style within an inviting and livable interior; and every element, from the home’s semi-permanent fixtures and finishes to the furnishings and decor found in each room, complement each other to make a lasting impression. The home is located in northeastern Denver nearby Peña Boulevard with a value of $775,000. John Moran of Denver, Colorado was this year’s recipient of the grand prize home that came with transitional interior design aesthetic filled with bright white finishes and pops of blue hues, metallics and greenery for an addition of color. A 5,900 square foot craftsman-style house donated by Oakwood Homes was this year’s grand prize, including five fully-furnished bedrooms and three bathrooms, a 2,400 square foot beach entry pool, and a gated community with luxury amenities to boot. The basement of the Dream Home features a large central living space, a bathroom, a boy-themed kids bunk bed room, a second guest room, and a third downstairs bedroom that's been converted into an office space.
The 2014 Central Valley St. Jude Dream Home, built by major donor De Young Properties, was given away to Brian and Traci Martin of Clovis who were selected as the lucky winner of the 3,100 sq. Ft. homesite in the De Young CountrySide community in Clovis during the November 9th live television broadcast on KMPH FOX 26.

Main Floor
This year’s Dream Home is contemporary, spacious, and it offers some of the best views of any Dream Home in recent memory. I envisioned it being loved by everyday families, so I wanted it to be inviting, livable, but also with an elevated sense of style to set it apart from the rest. Because it is a gorgeous new home with beautiful views of the great outdoors, I decided to try and create an aesthetic that combined the natural tones and textures found in rustic or farmhouse designs with touches of modern sophistication and glamor. To achieve this, I decided to go with a color palette that paired deep greens and natural wooden tones with bright whites, glossy surface materials, and splashes of matte black hardware for contrast.

Basement
Since 2007, De Young Properties has been a major donor and builder of eight St. Jude Dream Homes, helping to raise $7,608,345 to help the kids of St. Jude fight cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases. One hundred percent of the proceeds were donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which works around the clock to develop cures to save the lives of boys and girls, including children in the San Joaquin Valley. Finally, Barb used a lighter touch when it came to rustic or farmhouse decor, and she found artwork that showcased outdoor activities to build upon the basement’s man-cave aesthetic. The interior of this year’s Dream Home showcases a beautiful yet somewhat-unexpected marriage of rustic and contemporary design elements. As with all De Young EnergySmart homes, the 2014 St. Jude Dream Home will come with a host of earth-friendly features and apply green building practices that create a healthy environment in which we live. These building practices include high energy efficiency standards, improved indoor air quality, water conservation and utilizing sustainable building practices.
Other special features of this home include a kitchen grotto with an eat-in island and a finished garden-level basement. This year we experienced a tremendous amount of interest in the St. Jude Dream HomeÒ because it offered five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a formal dining room. The 8th annual Denver St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway has come to an end, and this year participants successfully assisted in raising money for the research hospital’s unique medical mission to not bill families with nearly 14,000 raffle tickets sold.
Throughout the home you’ll find aspects of this palette playing out in different ways, and, because it’s so spacious, we were also able to include plenty of unique light fixtures to bring it all together. The natural green colors of the walls and kitchen cabinets as well as the combination of rustic light fixtures and weathered plank flooring give the home an organic feel, but there’s also some very modern elements found throughout, like the countertops and a lot of the tiling. The combination of modern with rustic or organic is becoming more and more popular in the design world, and the fixtures and finishes of the home deliver this style in a really unique and exciting way. It was a joy to find furnishings to complement this distinctive space. Like in many homes, some of the most impactful fixtures and finishes are located in the kitchen.
The dining room was roomy enough to feature a large hanging chandelier full of rustic and even industrial appeal with its chain link accents and vintage bulbs, and the nearby guest bathroom pairs classic terra cotta floor tiles with posh white marble shower tiles to bring the look home. Since opening 50 years ago, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital has changed the way the world treats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. No family ever pays St. Jude for the care their child receives and, for every child treated here, thousands more have been saved worldwide through St. Jude discoveries. The hospital has played a pivotal role in pushing U.S. pediatric cancer survival rates from 20 to 80 percent overall, and is the first and only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted to children. It is also a leader in the research and treatment of blood disorders and infectious diseases in children. St. Jude was founded by the late entertainer Danny Thomas, who believed that no child should die in the dawn of life.

In a nod to the color palette found on the walls and ceilings, the lower kitchen cabinets are painted a deep forest green while the upper cabinets are finished in a bright Sea Salt white. For the countertops, Hannah opted to use a crystalline white quartz because it is durable and easy to clean while still providing a hint of glamor. For the backsplash running behind the counter tops, Hannah went with natural stone tiles in an elegant lantern pattern, and finally, above the kitchen’s roomy central island, she installed three large hanging pendants with Edison light bulbs surrounded by ornate glass globes to illuminate the space. As the Oakwood Home’s Interior Designer, Hannah McKenner made all the final decisions relating to the semi-permanent fixtures and finishes of this year’s Dream Home. If you're new to interior design, the term “fixtures and finishes'' refers to the design elements that are physically attached to the home. These can include the types of flooring, counter tops, as well as the tiles used in the kitchen and bathrooms; and they include the colors of paint used on the walls, ceilings, as well as the type of hardware that adorns the sinks, cabinets, and doors.
With the purchase of a $100 ticket, contestants had the chance to win an abundance of prizes, including a brand new dream home, along with all the proceeds donated directly St. Jude for patients and their families. The basement employs many of the same finishes and fixtures as the rest of the home, but there are some subtle touches in the bathroom that give it more of a "man-cave" feel. The shower is bedecked with glossy black tiles in a classic brick-house pattern, and the cabinets are painted black to contrast the cosmopolitan white marble countertop. The living room’s roomy footprint and large windows allow the wooden texture of the vinyl flooring to take center stage, giving the room a decidedly rustic feel. To offset this with a touch of modern appeal, Hannah decided to feature a contemporary black electric fireplace surrounded by classic white marble tiles in a sophisticated chevron pattern. As any interior designer can tell you, creating a cohesive home aesthetic is more than just coming up with the right configuration of beautiful furniture.
In addition, De Young EnergySmart™ homes have independent inspections for third-party review. Those who donated were eligible for a plethora of other prizes with options, with a new 2019 Lincoln MKC donated from Landmark Lincoln or a $10,000 shopping spree at Furniture Row among some of the selection. Barb also decided to use curtains with a “soft black” color in the dining room instead of gray or charcoal to offset the farmhouse look with a more moody, modern vibe. Finally, because the home is being shown in the fall, I complemented the green color palette with bright golds and other spicy, warming colors, and I also tried to do a little nod to Halloween, but in a tasteful, upscale way with only a few holiday-themed items in the entryway and living room. As in years past, Furniture Row played a part in this incredible contest by furnishing and styling the interior of the Dream Home, and to celebrate its completion, we’re offering a detailed glimpse into how exactly the unique style of this year’s home came to be.
