Byers Family Dream Home is Finally Revealed on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

Corvallis, OR (PRWEB) July 15, 2007 -- This afternoon, a hectic week of construction came to an end as hundreds of volunteers and spectators stood in anticipation as Ty Pennington of ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (http://abc.go.com/primetime/xtremehome/index.html) enthusiastically shouted, "Move that Bus," and the Byers' green-built dream home was finally revealed.

A beautiful 3,980 square foot, Northwest Contemporary-style home resides where the original home used to sit just one week ago. Complete with four bedrooms and three and one-half bathrooms, this one-story home offers an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings in many of the rooms, including a large great room with a row skylights bringing in rays of natural sunlight. The front of the home has been neatly landscaped with grass and shrubbery accenting the driveway; to the rear of the home, a Koi pond has been installed, providing outdoor serenity as it overlooks the remainder of the two-acres lot.

Mark Stewart worked with the Extreme Makeover Design Team to create the custom home. Stewart was thrilled to finally meet the Byers family last Saturday and was moved beyond words when Mrs. Byers broke down in tears when she discovered that Mark Stewart Home Design (http://www.markstewart.com) would be doing the home. This is Stewart's second design for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition; the first was in Lawton, OKLA.

Out of dozens of Oregon Home Builders, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition chose award-winning, green-certified Legend Homes to help Jenessa "Boey" Byers and her family get the home of their dreams in Oregon's first-ever Extreme Makeover. According to Boey's grandfather, Rachel and Rob Byers have wanted a Legend Home for a long time, but could never afford one due to Boey's rising medical bills. Now, thanks to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Legend Homes, and Mark Stewart Home Design, the family's dream has become a reality.
