Without doubt, the best place for luxury and environment to live altogether in harmony are the high-tech green homes. We have already seen the $4 million Wired magazine LivingHome and the famed Florida developer Frank McKinney’s $29 million green home. Now, we have the New American Home, a green home which is available for purchase at a mere $4,000,000 while the furnishings by Saxon Clark are sold separately. Situated across a lakefront lot of a budding new community west of Orlando, Florida, the New American Home 2006 looks stunning from any angle of approach.
The palatial property enjoys 7,367 square feet of living space, an infinity edge pool, and four car garages. The two-story, five-bedroom house touts a unique combination of British Colonial Caribbean and Mediterranean Revival. The outdoor living areas include vanishing edge pool with 2 islands, gas heated spa, 2 fireplaces, 2 covered loggias with hidden motorized screens and 2 outdoor cooking centers.
The huge service bar, 2 dishwashers, gas range, dumb waiter, Kohler pot filler and wine cooler make for a perfect contemporary kitchen. The master suite has a morning coffee center, Kohler Chromatherapy tub and steam shower and custom master closet. The house also boasts a theater, game room and home office with 2nd floor library.
Other lavish amenities include high-tech Bose audio sound system, security cameras, 11 televisions, automated lighting control system, elevator, 3 gas fireplaces, central vacuum, 3 laundry rooms, and a boat dock with hoists for boats and jet skis by the lake.
Green construction features:
The luxurious home boasts an accessible design to reduce future renovations, insulated concrete form walls, sprayed Icynene expanding foam roof insulation, sustainable interior doors and trim, high efficiency Storm Force doors and windows, high SEER air conditioning system, central dehumidification, HEPA filtration for clean indoor air, tankless hot water heater, integrated pest management, water efficient landscape species and design, rainwater harvesting from roof gutter system, and garden mulch constructed from recycled construction materials.
The New American Home 2006 has received a certificate from the Florida Green Building Coalition Inc. for using environmentally sound construction materials and principles.
The New American Home clearly shows that going green can be glamorous. The green property is listed at US $4 million.
