Green Homes in Florida Offer Beautiful and Smart Living

For those looking to explore the remarkable features of green homes in Florida, we invite you to take a look at our exquisite new eco-sustainable home for sale. This is a gorgeous example of the seamless combination of an environmentally sound, energy-efficient green home and the stylish, open design of the best of contemporary Florida homes. The newly-constructed marvel includes the features that provide a healthy living environment with all the beauty of contemporary architecture.

This 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home, offering almost 4000 square feet of living space, is the first LEED- certified green home in Broward County. Located just minutes from the ocean in Lighthouse Point, the home features solar energy, low flow landscape irrigation, energy-efficient hurricane-resistant windows and extra insulation for enhanced temperature control. The home was constructed using ecologically- friendly building materials wherever possible, including low VOC paints, epoxies and sealants to provide cleaner quality air inside the house. The Energy Star appliances and tankless water heaters contribute to efficient household operation, saving both money and energy. Even the 42’-long lap pool functions using a chlorine-free filtering system.

Aside from the virtues of its green construction and energy- and water-conserving qualities, the aesthetic features of this home offer their own impressive benefits. The open floor plan includes a 20’ ceiling in the living room and foyer, and 10’ floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors and windows, bringing in the exceptional views anyone would expect from Fort Lauderdale waterfront homes. It features bamboo wood, honed limestone flooring and beautiful, contemporary Hansgrohe plumbing fixtures in the kitchen and bathrooms.

Of course, this unique house is only available for a limited time, but those interested in owning a green home of their own need not worry. The doors of opportunity are wide open in south Florida for custom built green homes. Regardless of your personal tastes in architectural style, you can enjoy the benefits of green living in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
