Completed Homes

Since our founding in 1990, we have completed seven new homes, renovated one home and de-constructed one home, moved and rebuilt it on another site.  The Williams College Architectural Design II class, with instructor Ann McCallum, a local architect, and the McCann Technical School CAD Shop provide the home design.  Each home is individually designed to meet the guidelines recommended by HfHI.  

Homes are designed to keep energy costs low.  A recently completed home received an Energy Star Certification, which means the house is weather tight, sealed to prevent air infiltration, well insulated, and uses Energy Star appliances and lighting.  Newer design and construction methods reduce energy costs making the home affordable over its lifetime.  We continue to improve energy savings using the latest building technology such as photovoltaic panels when possible.  Future plans will incorporate “green” building design to make the house environmentally friendly.
