Scraps of granite from the “bone yards” of a granite fabricator form the fireplace surround. The original hardwood floors were refinished and sealed with water borne coatings. The decision to relocate the staircase from the center to the south side of the home dramatically opened up the main level.


 


KEY GREEN FEATURES

> Rain Capture System. Rain chains capture rainwater coming off the roof, with the water ultimately being distributed to the yard through a series of French drains. An old garage on site was stripped of its walls, and the cement underneath the roof was broken to allow water to pass through semi-permeable pavers and create a “rain garden.”



> Low-VOC Paint. The builder used Sherwin-Williams finishes throughout the home.



> Energy-Efficient Light. A wide range of Juno lighting was used in the home, including recessed, under cabinet, and decorative light. In some locations, the lights were attached to motion sensors.



> Ground Source Heat Pump. The Florida Heat Pump (FHP) installed by Specialty Heating and Cooling dramatically enhances indoor air heating and cooling efficiency.


> Formaldehyde-Free Cabinets. Sourced from FSC-certified wood products, these cabinets from Urban Timber Works are finished with waterbased, low-VOC coatings.
