Old World Renewal
Based on a top-selling plan popular among move-up buyers, this home has been carefully upgraded to use less energy and save water without sacrificing comfort.
EARTH-SAVING IDEA
Do you need an insulated garage door? Despite the fact that most garages are not heated, many people end up using them as workshop spaces, or as a place to tinker with a vehicle or project in the winter. The environmental costs of replacing a garage door at a later date are quite high. A few dollars added to a construction loan up front may be a smart investment.
