The Home: This 3,600 square foot home is a blend of modern sensibility and Arts and Crafts design. The 2 story, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home with a finished lower level has been constructed with a focus on preserving the site’s natural features including the unique topography, stone walls, indigenous vegetation and site views. The practical design feels spacious while making efficient use of the home’s square footage. The home also includes elegant details such as a gourmet kitchen, floor to ceiling stone fireplace, custom trim work, custom built-ins, as well as hardwood floors.

Energy Efficiencies: The home is sited to take advantage of optimal solar gain. High-efficiency windows, large roof overhangs, Iight colored roofing material, tankless water heater, Hardie Board siding and natural materials are just a few of the green features integrated in the home. The custom fireplace is tied into the central heating furnace ductwork which enables the heat from the fireplace to be distributed efficiently throughout the home.
