Our Homes
Visitors and residents alike fall in love with our graceful,
Cape Cod style beach cottages. Though each home is unique, many
homes feature covered porches, wainscoating in living areas,
tile and granite countertops, Berber carpet, traditional craftsmen
style white woodwork, and open floor plans.
Additionally, new homes in the neighborhood are built "Green"
or environmentally friendly. By this we mean that much thought
has been put into the initial design, and selection of construction
and indoor finish material. Not only are the products we use
better for the environment, but they ensure the occupant healthy
indoor air, lower energy bills, and peace of mind. For more
information about green building, please visit the U.S. Green
Building Council website.
 We
are also proud to offer new homes that have earned the ENERGY
STAR® label. ENERGY STAR qualified homes are designed,
built and performance tested to be at least 15 % more energy
efficient than code-built homes in Oregon. Our ENERGY STAR
qualified new homes are independently verified by a third
party to ensure they meet ENERGY STAR energy efficiency guidelines.
These homes are better for the environment and better for
you.
