What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?

Property Description

Built in 2011, this super energy efficient home has proven itself with power costs averaging at $30.55 per month over the last 12 months (Nov 2012). The home features a master suite with double sinks, over-sized shower and jacuzzi tub plus huge walk in 'his & hers' closets. There are two further double bedrooms and a large family bathroom upstairs with separate shower stall and tub. A fully finished bonus attic room is on the third/top floor. On the ground floor the Indonesian reclaimed antique front door welcomes you into an elevated reception area leading to the open plan main room and open kitchen. Beyond that is the large screened deck that experiences the cool breezes almost all year round and the tranquility of virgin dry forest, untouched, apart from a few nature trails. There are two further reception rooms, one currently used as a music room and the other a sitting room. Accessed from the front deck is the laundry and boot room, including energy efficient washer and gas dryer for the few days in Cayman when laundry cannot be dried on the outside rotary line. From the back porch one accesses a full wet-room designed as a pool shower room and a private bathroom for occasional guests. The mechanical or boiler room housing the control panels for the PV inverter solar and rainwater harvesting is also accessed from this deck. This room provide useful storage and was also designed to house batteries for PV produced electricity. The property occupies 0.64 acres of natural and beautiful land in Beach Bay. The house is in one of the most elevated points on the island. The house is of extremely strong construction, using ICF blocks (insulated concrete forms - http://www.nudura.com/en/insulatedconcreteforms.aspx), concrete with steel. The building envelope and roof have been designed for maximum hurricane resistance and energy efficiency.
