Building Custom ‘Green’ Homes Affordably – Open House This Saturday!

Open House this Saturday, January 31, 2009!

The home is located at 1716 Galloway Road in Charlotte, NC and will be open from 10 am - 4 pm.

Have you thought about how much you could save due to more efficient construction? Your gas and electric bills could be much lower. Your home could be evenly heated and cooled.

Discover the Made from Scratch™ difference by touring an energy-efficient, eco-friendly custom home that was completed in less than 100 days. Learn how Julie LaTerra Homes' fresh approach to building can help you save water, energy and money.

The health of your family is extremely important. The National Association of Home Builders estimates 50% of homes built in 2010 will be green. "We care about you and your family," said Charlotte custom homebuilder Julie LaTerra, CEO. "Green building is the homebuilding trend of the future and we are seeing this now."

Consider the comfort benefits of this 'green' home:

• Energy-Efficiency – Water-conservation fixtures, Low-E windows and Energy-Star lighting will reduce monthly energy bills


• Temperature – Well insulated, tight fitting, energy-efficient doors and windows along with a hybrid HVAC system allow for even heating and cooling temperatures


• Sound – Virtually airtight walls create a quiet home, free from outside noise


• Low-Maintenance – Maintenance free products so you are not burdened with upkeep


• Healthy Improved Air Quality – Protects your family and makes the air in your home healthier

This "build on your lot" two-story home is spacious, with 2,700+ square feet of living space and a full daylight basement for future expansion to over 4,000 square feet of living space! The first floor of the home begins with a large, welcoming porch that invites guests into the foyer and formal dining room. Sunlight floods the flexible space off the foyer—ideal for an office, craft room or place for the in-laws.

The home's living area has lots of natural light and is complete with a sweeping view of the outdoors. The family room adjoins the great room with a soaring, vaulted ceiling with room for everyone to gather.

The entertaining kitchen is a cook's delight with an island that can double as a server. Generous storage is throughout.

The second floor of the home features two bedrooms, including a spacious loft area perfect for family fun and entertaining. A two-car garage and laundry room provide space for storage and work activities.

Come join us this Saturday and register to win a FREE Super Bowl cooler packed with lots of prizes for game day! Light refreshments will be provided.
