This is an older home that continues to be tampered with by the owner - tweaking his house seems to be an ongoing passion. Most of the things you will see in this house are standard in today’s building market, so the biggest feature here is the reuse of an old home (1979) to bring it up to a minimum standard in the early 21st century! This is a good example of what we should be doing with older homes, rather than scraping them off and building a new house with all the embodied energy that entails. Since 2001, the homeowner has added a cooling unit to the house, yet still reduced its carbon footprint by over 79%!
