SPECIAL FEATURES: ENERGY EFFICIENT The homes large overhangs are design to allow significant direct sunlight into the home in the winter but not in the summer. The low angle of the winter sun can shine under the large south facing covered patio roof-line but the same roofline completely blocks out the high sun angle in the summer. Home is solar ready with roof trusses designed to hold extra weight of ballasted solar panels. Low electric bills. The west windows are longer where the roof overhang is larger and shorter where the roof overhang is shorter, thus helping to control the west solar radiation. The window glazing is designed with coatings to limit solar transfer and minimize thermal conduction. The high efficiency heat pump has little reason to run in the winter and works to cool the house efficiently in the summer. The hot water heater is an electric heat pump also and uses the warm air in the west facing garage to pump the heat into the water for domestic use. This helps to reduce the electrical consumption considerably. Even the induction electric cooktop is more efficient than other cooktops, safe to use and easy to clean. CUSTOM DESIGN: The home was designed specifically for the lot and to take advantage of the wide open scenic views both from within the house as well as on the covered patio. The home is intended to be very accessible with wide hallways and doors. The 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms are well planned for guest privacy. The home generally has 10 foot ceilings but the area with reduced height are just not for decorative design. All the ductwork in the home is located in the dropped ceilings below 10 feet. There is no ductwork in the attic so the attic space can fit more insulation and the ducts can be kept in conditioned space for greater delivery of heated and cooled air. The stepped design of the ceiling soffits was also intended to create a recessed stepped space to hide the air supply vent and indirect lighting and thus keep the ceiling cleaner in appearance. The open kitchen, dining and great-room was designed for entertaining while showing off the functional kitchen with pantry and huge island. There is no carpeting, but rather Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring and tile to reduce maintenance and wear. Automated Hunter Douglas blinds on the bedroom windows. The exterior is also very low maintenance with two tone colored stucco and thick full bed depth natural stone. All the colors including the stone pavers are color coordinated for a look that blends into the natural setting. The home looks equally good from all 4 sides.
