Congratulations to Larry and Charlotte Binegar on being selected as this month winner of the “Home of the Month” award, for their home located at 106 Mound Drive in Marietta.
​
The home was built in a quiet neighborhood in Oak Grove in 1972. In the mid-1990s, Larry was living out in the country and wanted to be closer to his work. He heard through the grapevine that this house might be for sale so he approached the owner personally. In 1996, he struck a deal and became the new proud owner of a home just five minutes away from his work, 106 Mound Dr.
Since then Larry has put a lot of work into the house with the help of his boys. Together they built a new sunroom, new garage, new deck, new kitchen, new bathroom, and new laminate floors. They also had the roof replaced by a company in Parkersburg called promo construction.
When asked what his favorite part of the house was Larry said, “it would have to be the neighborhood and the people that live in it. I have very friendly, wonderful neighbors that take good care of their homes.”
Congratulations again Larry and Charlotte!
