The home

About this home

One half of the Sourwood front porch pair, this home faces a sunny garden corner where pollinators are most active, as well as abutting up to the year-round ecological wildlife pond. This unit has a very private back porch in the South-East corner of Maple Crescent with ample green space where a fruit producing orchard is planned. Its airy floor plan supports both connection and retreat, with large eastern facing windows and a south facing back deck. The second story hosts three south and east-facing bright bedrooms and a linen closet alcove. This GreenBuilt Gold home includes cork and wool flooring, non-toxic finishes, and non-vinyl windows with low-E glass. The all-electric mini-split HVAC ensures comfort in every season.

Exceptional Indoor Air Quality

Natural and chemical-free finishes add comfort and beauty, while also protecting occupant health. We work with two types of cork flooring, fast-growing eucalyptus wood cabinets, no-VOC paints and varnishes, and 100% wool carpet (50/50 virgin and recycled) and wool carpet underlayment.

Solar-ready roof

Our solar-ready roofs combine smart orientation, durable metal materials, and pre-installed conduit chases for fast, low-cost solar setup in the future. This setup gives homeowners the freedom to go renewable when the time is right without having to pay for solar panels up front when buying their home
