Description Vacation house and barn for a growing extended family
Site Waterfront
Design While fitting in with local Shingle Style and Colonial Revival traditions, Harbor View is organized for modern living, with the kitchen at the center, open to the living/dining room and waterside porch.
This house is the first Passive House in Vermont, the first modular Passive House in the United States, and the first Habitat for Humanity Passive House.
This house wraps around two levels of courtyards on one side and looks out over salt marshes to the sound on the other. Its deeply insulated 12” thick walls and roof conserve energy, and heat recovery ventilation ensures a constant cycle of fresh air.
