The simplest path to a net-zero home
Sirius
Bright living space with extensive 2nd-floor master suite
Clerestory windows reflect light deep into the interior and create wonderfully sculptured light gradients along the white, reflective walls of the Demarest home. Designed to flow onto the western deck, this home balances high ceilings to create space in the kitchen & dining areas with a lower ceiling in the living room to give it that cozy, intimate feel.
The 2nd-floor main master bedroom is also oriented to the west, and, with the addition of clerestory windows, features stunning sunset views throughout the home. The master bedroom located on this floor connects privately through the Jack-and-Jill bathrooms & shared closet, creating your own private retreat whiten the home.
A choice of main entrances means this house to fit onto most lots and allows you to orient the structure as you see fit.
