Meet the Rae Family! New Neighbors at Ten Trails

Meet some of Ten Trails’ newer residents, the Rae family! Ben and Sarah Rae moved their family of five to the community from nearby Covington and couldn’t be happier with their new Lennar Aspen model home! “We came from a three-bedroom home and needed more space,” says Ben of the couple’s initial reason for moving. “We also were hoping to move into a neighborhood where the kids would have other children their own age to play with, and we definitely found that here at Ten Trails.”

Community Parks and Amenities

The Raes love spending time in the community park that’s just steps away from their front door, and the family enjoys taking walks over to the Civic Park where the Rae kids: Benny, Sophia and June, enjoy the playground equipment and playing hockey in the sports court. “We also bought bikes after moving in so we could bike around the community,” says Sarah. “We love the wide sidewalks that make it easy for all of us to bike.”

“Everything’s Included” with Lennar Homes at Ten Trails

Ben and Sarah were attracted to the Lennar Homes at Ten Trails because of the layouts and the builder’s “everything’s included” philosophy where Smart Home Technology and Voice Automation services, as well as things like windows and blinds, and stainless steel appliances are all set up in the home and included in the purchase price. “It was a tough choice between the Aspen and the Magnolia models,” says Sarah. “But we are really happy with our decision.” The family loves spending time in the home’s large, open great room and having the huge kitchen island for meal prep.

A Sense of Community

One of the pleasant surprises Ben and Sarah found when choosing to move into Ten Trails was how quickly they were able to meet other families in the community. “We have a text chain with some of the local couples and we all love to get together at the community firepits,” says Ben. “We have enjoyed how easy it has been to get to know neighbors since we’ve moved in.” Welcome to Your New Hometown, Rae family! We are happy you chose to move to Ten Trails! 360.469.4043 www.TenTrails.com

Meet Mike Calkins, Sales Agent for Conner Homes at Ten Trails 

Ten Trails is happy to share that Mike Calkins has joined the Conner Homes sales team in the community! Mike brings more than 27 years of real estate and new home construction experience to his new role, and is eager to help visitors to the community find the ideal Conner Homes floorplan that suits their family’s lifestyle.

A Background in New Home Construction 

Mike has been working for many years in the new construction field, but his career started on an entirely different path over in Leavenworth, WA where he ran a mountaineering school for four years. That opportunity led him to become a youth pastor for several years, then he left that calling to become a new home builder. Before going back into new construction sales in 2012, Mike also spent time as a developer in eastern Washington.

Enjoy a Sense of Community in a Gorgeous Setting in Nature 

One of the best parts of Mike’s job at Ten Trails is meeting all the different types of families that are looking for homes and sharing with them the developer’s vision for the community. “You just get such a great sense of community living here that you can’t find anywhere else,” says Mike. “It feels like living in a small, close-knit town, but you are nearby to shopping, restaurants and medical services.”

Conner Homes Single Family Homes at Ten Trails

Guests at the Conner model home at Ten Trails can learn from Mike about the builder’s thoughtful attention to detail. “Conner Homes has been building in the Seattle area for more than 60 years and has a positive reputation and following in the area,” says Mike. “I’ve met people at the model home who come here just because they own a Conner home already and are huge fans of the builder and want to see what we are working on currently.” Mike describes the Conner Homes at Ten Trails as “northwest contemporary” in style with low-maintenance yards, full-sized driveways and tons of windows. “The window placement is really something that sets these homes apart,” says Mike. “The location of all the windows really allows for tons of natural light to pour into the homes.”

The company is also very environmentally friendly,” says Ryan. “Energy efficiency is one of the key characteristics of all of Ichijo’s homes.”
