Front of the 2012 Designers' Showhouse.

The Designers’ Showhouse is an annual grassroots fundraising event that raises much needed support for the agency. Through this signature fundraiser in its 32nd year, the agency is able to continue supporting the community by offering resources to families and child care providers.

The 2012 Designers’ Showhouse event is returning to the Westboro area with a beautiful, colonial style home on Shadow Lane. The home was recently purchased by Josh and Kimberly Svaty.

“3162 Shadow Lane is such a special home that has been cared for well,” said Kimberly Svaty. “We look forward to refreshing the home’s decor and creating a welcoming and family-friendly environment which honors the 86-year history of the house.”

There are a total of 17 design areas to be transformed over a 10-week period. These areas include a completely remodeled kitchen, a library and sitting area open to the upstairs, landscaping and more. Area designers and craftsmen present their design plans to the homeowners to ensure that the home not only showcases the best in interior and landscape design, but also serves the family well.

Tour the home after the transformation takes place starting on April 21 to May 13, 2012. We hope to see you there!
