Beaverdam Knoll passive solar home
This home was designed and built by Mountain Sun Building and Design. The home is Energy Star, Indoor Air Plus, Healthy Built Home Platinum and LEED for Homes Platinum certified. It is on track to be a Net Zero home. The home has geothermal heating and cooling, active and passive solar technologies, rainwater cistern for hose bibs and toilet flushing, a permaculture based landscape/site design, concrete floors and counters and many other "green" features. This high performance home was completed on a small budget by careful attention to cost/benefit analysis and use of simple, but high quality finishes. Porches and landscaping are still being completed. Check back for more pictures of the completed project soon.
West Asheville renovation
We completed extensive renovations in the living areas and bathroom of this 1952 ranch in West Asheville. Taking out walls between the living room, dining room and kitchen and vaulting the ceilings in the kitchen and bathroom give the home more natural light and created a better space for gathering with friends and family.
