Designed w/ sustainability & comfort in mind, the home features a strategically placed stairwell along the South facing wall that collects passive solar heat.

Rust-colored concrete floors are a stunning design element & function encompassing radiant floor heating on both levels, powered by an efficient electric system, adds comfort while keeping energy costs low. A 9.86 kW photovoltaic solar array on the south-facing roof supplies power for the HVAC & the home’s electrical needs. This is sustainable living at its finest!
