Over the past few weeks many of you have asked for a House Crashing post with photos of the other six Homearama homes in the show, so we slipped in and photographed each one—just like we did for this Homearama House Crash back in 2012. Fair warning: this post is image-heavy. Everyone who’s visited the show seems to walk away with different favorites, which is part of the fun. There’s also a “people’s choice” ballot for each home, and the voting boxes are already filling up.
All seven homes sit on a cul-de-sac and are numbered, so we’ll start with House #1, built and designed by LeGault Homes.
House #1 stood out as one of the most luxuriously decorated homes in the show, with particularly striking cabinetry. The kitchen featured double islands—one with a standard sink and the other with a prep sink that doubles as an ice-and-drink station for entertaining. Through the doorway into the mudroom you can see coordinating dark, mirrored cabinets that tie the spaces together.
The living room included a double-sided fireplace with a cozy seating area behind it, creating a warm, open flow between rooms. Upstairs, sliding barn doors created the look of metal trim from a distance; the “steel” finish was actually painted wood, a clever trick that gives industrial appeal without the weight or cost.
The main bedroom enjoyed abundant natural light and a soft, upscale palette in furnishings. A common trend in several homes was a closet accessed through the main bathroom; this house took that idea to a new level with a very generous closet full of custom cabinetry and even a small drink station with a mini fridge.
House #1 was the only home in the show with a finished basement, and the basement included a tasteful wine cellar. Stacked shelving made from pallets added character and provided extra bottle storage along one wall.
Skipping over House #2 (that’s ours) we visited House #3, built by Southern Traditions and designed by Elaine Reeder. The exterior has attractive stone accents with tin awnings and decorative rain chains, and the interior blends a variety of materials in interesting ways.
A short passage between the foyer and living room pairs a rustic wood ceiling with a stone wall water feature for a surprising textural contrast. The main living area is open and dramatic, with a two-story living room and a coffered ceiling carrying the rustic wood motif upward.
Downstairs the half bath took a bold approach with graphic bird wallpaper above wainscoting, adding personality to an often-overlooked space. The en-suite bathroom featured a distinctive sunken tub that felt like a boutique hotel touch. Upstairs, a playroom was reimagined as a sleepover suite with two sets of built-in bunkbeds; the custom carpenter added clever built-in drawers within the steps for hidden storage.
House #4, by Ray A. Williams Custom Homes, introduced darker exterior trim that we’ve noticed and liked around our own neighborhood. The kitchen had a cinematic moment when the lights were turned on—bright, layered, and very well styled—and included charming accessories like silver monkey figurines that caught the eye.
Details such as metal straps on the range hood and mesh panels on some glass cabinet doors added custom character. The bathrooms leaned modern, with mosaic accent tile and sleek glass shower doors, while decorative paneled ceilings appeared as a recurring architectural theme throughout the home.
House #5, built by Harring Construction and designed by Diana Ragsdale, was another standout. The main bedroom featured a dramatic vaulted ceiling and an elegant gold chandelier, and gold finishes continued into the en-suite bath fixtures. The mudroom offered smart built-ins and rustic touches, including bench upholstery made from old grain sacks and reclaimed wood accents that came from a friend’s North Carolina barn.
That reclaimed wood reappeared upstairs as an accent wall behind a compact desk area carved out of a hallway, and on the back of a built-in bookcase. A boys’ bedroom included a bookcase that doubles as a secret doorway leading to a tucked-away media room—a fun, youthful retreat that many would have loved as teenagers.
House #6, from Falcone Custom Homes and designed by Catherine Stanley, is one of the largest properties in the show and is widely known as “the one with the pool.” The kitchen includes separate refrigerator and freezer units plus a large 100-bottle wine rack, all set beneath impressive ceiling beam details. The en-suite bathroom is lavish—roughly 600 square feet for the bath and shower area—and features an infinity tub, a rain showerhead, and multiple body spray jets. The outdoor space contains a pool and engaging water-and-fire features that make it a true entertaining destination.
Finally, House #7, by LifeStyle Builders and designed by Priscilla George, shares some stylistic choices with our own house, like a blue exterior paint—lighter and balanced with stone and dark roofline trim. Inside, a navy kitchen island with detailed legs and a glass-front end cabinet gave the kitchen depth, while accent tile and a stainless range hood provided subtle texture. A built-in L-shaped banquette paired with chairs and cheerful teal-backed bookshelves created a sunny eating nook.
The en-suite bathroom here separates shower zones—one side features a traditional and rain-shower head while the other has a bench and handheld shower—offering both luxury and practical versatility. Upstairs a bonus room embraced bold design by going dark with black trim and built-ins, creating an intimate space ideal for TV or movies. Each bedroom in this home carried its own visual theme; one room with grasscloth wallpaper and an old flag display stood out and felt charmingly collected.
After photographing more than 30 images across these six homes, we wrapped up our tour. There’s much more to explore in person if you can visit, but hopefully this gives you a clear sense of the variety, craftsmanship, and inspiration on display. If you have specific questions about paint colors, furnishings, or finishes, ask away—answers may take a little time while the Homearama team handles show duties, but we’ll share details as they become available.
