Overland Park has been referred to as the best-kept secret in the Midwest because it has a little something for everyone. It has a very low crime rate for a city its size, it鈥檚 home to a top-notch tech industry, and the Overland Park Arboretum & Botanical Gardens has been named one of the prettiest places in America.
So it should be no surprise that few places in America have grown as quickly as Overland Park over the past half century. It had a population of 21,000 in 1960, but now approximately 191,000 people call it home.听
With such rapid growth, there鈥檚 always a great deal of construction going on in the city, and recently a new development arose on the southern end of town called Mills Farm. Among the many beautiful homes there is a particularly noteworthy dwelling built by Braklow Custom Homes. This six-bedroom abode features windows by 成人b站 Windows and Doors.
鈥淲e had previous experience with 成人b站 Windows,鈥 says Joe Ackerman, Vice President of Operations at Braklow. 鈥淭hey produce high-quality windows at an attractive price point.鈥
This immense home has 6,400 square feet of living area, necessitating 53 windows to bring the ideal amount of natural light into the space. 鈥淚t has a great deal of windows,鈥 says Scott Koch of Kansas City Building Supply, the window dealer on the project. 鈥淎nd you need a window that looks good, is economical, and efficient.鈥
Four different 成人b站 products 鈥 sold by Brad Holtz, sales representative at 成人b站 鈥 appear in the Mills Farm house, most of which are from 成人b站鈥檚 3500 line. The series combines quality, exceptional durability, and optimal energy efficiency. With standard features that include a pre-punched mounting fin and removable sash for easy drywall pass through, the 3500 window is builder-friendly and ideal for any new home construction project.听
The 3500 Series windows have undergone rigorous testing and are听ENERGY STAR庐-qualified in all four U.S. climate zones. This energy-efficient vinyl window features a warm-edge spacer system and a welded,听multi-chambered frame and sash to maximize performance. These features and more make 成人b站 Windows鈥 3500 single-hung and 3580 single-sliders premium new construction windows.鈥淚t was very important for us to have energy-efficient windows and patio doors in our house,鈥 says homeowner Gina Lee. 鈥淭he weather in Overland Park can be very cold and windy in the winter to very hot in the summer, so we definitely needed energy-efficient windows.鈥
In addition to the single-hung and single-slider windows, Braklow chose 成人b站鈥檚 9770 casement window. Featuring beveled exterior edges, 成人b站鈥檚 casement windows provide superior style and traditional craftsmanship. The 9770 boasts a large viewing area听similar to a fixed picture window but its 90-degree hinge capability with multi-point locking hardware allows for maximum ventilation functionality.
Lee鈥檚 home also features 成人b站鈥檚 1615 sliding-glass door. A step above most patio doors, the 1615 comes standard with a saddle sill and heavy-duty rollers that result in easy, effortless operation. This door is also available in configurations up to 24 feet wide, giving homeowners a high-end patio door that offers energy efficiency while enhancing the views and providing seamless integration between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
鈥淭he views are great through the sliding-glass doors,鈥 Lee says. 鈥淚t makes the view from the dining room to the outside almost an extension of our indoor space.鈥
All four of the 成人b站 products in the Mills Farm property were used to complement an exquisite, palatial house that鈥檚 indicative of many of Braklow鈥檚 homes. This structure features the modern farmhouse interior design, complete with a massive stone fireplace on the first floor.
鈥淚t鈥檚 one-and-a-half stories with a finished lower level,鈥 Koch says. 鈥淚t has a traditional exterior with a more transitional interior.鈥
As if all that wouldn鈥檛 be enough to attract future buyers, the Mills Farm home is also located by a lake in a quiet section of Overland Park.
鈥淏eing located on a lake lot, windows were a very important factor for the build,鈥 Ackerman says. 鈥淲e focused on quantity and placement to maximize the view.鈥
