Luxury living without the luxury energy bill

 

This 1920’s Belmont home retains the class of the roaring twenties from the outside, but inside, all of the green technologies have been blended nicely, to create a modern, nearly net-zero energy, home.

North Shore minimalist modern gets a new lease on life

 

The elements are not kind to homes on Cape Ann. But a Deep Energy Retrofit prepares this home for a century of durability and resilience. Exterior air sealing and insulation give the home superb comfort, indoor air quality, ultra-low energy bills and lasting property value. Energy efficiency doesn't go out of style.
