First style homes

When it comes to setting up a home, we never forget our first spaces. From our first apartments in college, to our first solo space, to our first time moving in with a significant other, we set out excited, inexperienced and ready to take on each empty space and make it our own. Here are a few first homes from our house tours.

1. Mara & Alex's First Home as a Married Couple: Mara purchased her first house solo, and it became her first home as a newlywed as well.
