In a word: FUTUREPROOF. Energy & heat efficient, 400amp service, smart-home with THREE electric vehicle chargers. IT IS READY for our fossil-fuel-free-future. Want an EV? Skip the line: an optional Tesla Model 3 (dual motor, long range) can be INCLUDED with the home. This south-facing property overlooks an astounding portion of the Okanagan lake. Located in the heart of Peachland (no speculation tax!) at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, you can walk down the hill to enjoy Peachland's sprawling walkway and beaches, OR up the hill to several trailheads that reward you with breathtaking vistas. This BRAND NEW custom build has a passive solar design, polished concrete floors, and two-story-high ICF (insulated concrete forms) that are integrated with a post-and-beam framework. The interior design also spared no consideration: contemporary shaker style, seamlessly combined with smart home controls. And the condo-like legal suite has all the same premium trim and appliances. Want a hassle-free, worry-free future? You just found it!
IN A WORD: FUTUREPROOF:
Eco-friendly; no fossil fuels. Three EV chargers. Captures & preserves heat energy by using passive-solar and earth-sheltered design elements. Incorporates energy-efficient appliances and smart home devices.
NOT YOUR TYPICAL BUILDING ENVELOPE:
The north, east, and west walls are two stories of 12-14” insulated concrete forms (ICF), rather than wood frame. This places the home into a different class all-together in terms durability and lifetime energy savings.
NO SHORTAGE OF POWER:
Massive 400amp electrical capacity (typical installs call for 100-200amp), powering things like the on-demand hot water and EV chargers - with plenty to spare for a future upgrade to a heated driveway.
STEP UP CODE BRAGGING RIGHTS:
Having a very high r-value, being solar ready, and high electrical capacity & energy efficiency, this home will likely beat or exceed BC Energy Step Codes into 2030 and beyond.
CONDO-LIKE SUITE WITH LUXURY FINISHINGS:
Two homes in one: the above-garage suite is built like a self-contained condo, complete with full size washer/dryer, full sized dishwasher, large 33” french door fridge, and full size oven with induction stove top. Also, completely separate smart home controls.
EARTH SHELTERED:
A common placement and design tactic that uses the earth as an insulator. The earth adds to the overall insulation to keep the heat in the winter, but also keeps the home cool in the summer, keeping the AC costs down.
PASSIVE SOLAR:
A simple design rule that places the majority of the windows on the south face, and utilizes a polished concrete floor as a solar mass to act as a heat battery. The home also incorporates a ‘control’ (overhang) to cut down on summertime sunlight entering home.
SMART TECHNOLOGY:
This home has numerous smart components for energy efficiency and convenience, to make your life just a little bit easier. Enjoy the benefits of controlling many components of the home from Google (or your ecosystem of choice); like roller blinds, heat controls, lighting, speakers, appliances and more. With multiple levels of programmability, you can automate this home exactly to your personal needs.
FEATURE SUMMARY:
Ultra-efficient wood burning fireplace, yoga room/sunroom, 1 bedroom legal suite, study in the upper loft, polished concrete floors, tall garage with 10ft door, workshop & gym area, separate heat pumps for main home and suite, 36kW tankless water heater, energy recovery ventilator, and sweeping lake views from the large and abundant southern facing windows - complete with motorized roller blinds.
CONENVIENT ADD-ON PACKAGES:
"EV Package" which includes a pristine Tesla Model 3 and more. "Furniture Package" which matches the trim. "Tech Package" for added networking and smart home controls. "Custom Fit Package" for integrated interior design components. "B&B Ops Package" for luxury provisions. 20-page package guide is available upon request.
