Bathroom furniture vanities
are a great way to add a custom touch and personality to an otherwise basic bathroom.
The furniture vanities I’m about to show you are all from the model home that was built in Summerlyn, a craftsman style home subdivision that I wrote about recently.
Co-developer, LaVaughn Johnson, explained that the homes he is building don’t have to have these particular furniture vanities.
The buyer is offered a myriad of choices to suit their own style and needs. Flexibility is just one of the keys to new home sales and Summerlyn has it.
I see bathroom furniture vanities on a fairly regular basis, but what makes this particular situation unique is the fact that these homes range in the mid-$200’s so it’s a nice surprise. We just don’t see this type of feature in this price range at all.
The vanity in the master bathroom (not shown)) is what we see most of the time, a wall-to-wall style of cabinetry that blends in nicely with the rest of the decor. The furniture vanities shown here are in the powder room, upstairs teen suite and shared bathroom of the two bedrooms downstairs.
More vanities…

I started as a home-stalker… visiting brand new homes under construction in the neighborhoods near my house. That inspired me to write about home building and home renovation projects — chronicling homes during different phases of construction from a consumer's point-of-view. Basically, the tips you'll find in my articles are a collection of checklists for what I think should (and should not) go into building or remodeling a quality home.
