Jeff Seal Homes

 

Today when you drive through neighborhoods one sees homes that look the exact same as their next-door neighbor's. The houses are "cookie cutter". All neighborhoods feel like they are a mass planned community with no imagination. A neighborhood in essence is a mass planned community, but does that mean the neighborhood needed to boring. In contrast driving up the street to a house by Jeff Seal is like no other street. All the houses are different in their own way. The homes have architectural detail, and beauty.

Jeff Seal is a homebuilder based out of Lubbock. His homes are full of intricate detail and mimic his inspiration in the purest form. Each home that he builds tells a story, that never make the visitor never want to leave.  Visiting Jeff Seal’s homes makes you wish you were his client. Jeff Seal homes are homes that pay attention to every little detail.  His homes are full of character and beauty

Each home is a masterpiece. The home we visited was inspired by homes that one would see in the south of France. However, all of the homes on the street are little different, but equally as stunning. The home that we visited reminded me of a Little French villa. The house was the perfect size with a stunning presence. As you walk into the house you come face to face with a stunning fireplace on a central axis point.  The fireplace may be missing the mantle, but it does not lack drama. The mantle will be a huge piece of wood, aged and stained the same color as the beams on the ceiling in the living room.

 The entry way may be small in size, but not small in character or detail. The ceiling features a groin vault with a simple but gorgeous chandelier. The groin vault in my opinion makes you feel as if you are in a luxurious cathedral in France.  The vault adds a sense of pizzazz. The doors that can be seen in the entry way were designed by a graduate of the Interior Design program at Tech. Not only were the doors designed by a Texas Tech interior graduate, she also is one of Jeff Seals interior designers. The doors feature beautiful carvings and are also shaped like doors you would see in a Gothic cathedral.

To left of the entryway is a dining room with windows that could be seen in a Gothic cathedral. The windows feature details that draw you to the windows. The windows are tall and grand, which add tons of natural light to the space. Next to the dining room is the kitchen, with loads of detail. The first thing that grabs ones attention is the barrel vaulted bricked ceiling. One would think that it would make the space feel cramped, however the ceiling does quite the opposite. The ceiling makes gives you a cozy feeling. It honestly made me want to cook all day long in that beautiful kitchen. The cabinets were two different colors that were rich and warm, once again creating a nice and cozy space.

As you can see Jeff Seal is amazing at what he does. His homes are full of intricate detail that people seem to forget to include these days. Through the few things that were mentioned on one can get the sense that Jeff Seal is a builder who thinks of his homes as a piece of artwork, a piece of artwork that one must keep as authentic as possible. His homes are truly inspirational. The attention to detail in Jeff Seal’s home are what create such masterpiece.
