Custom Modern Contemporary Design is ‘Green’
Wonderful opportunity on the quiet no-traffic crescent at Yonge & Sheppard.
This custom modern contemporary home was originally designed and built by a professional couple; she was a York University faculty of environmental studies and he was a
professional Engineer who described himself as a sustainable technologies engineer.
Their goal was to build a house that was kind to the environment, required a quarter of the energy of a conventional home to operate and is healthier to live in.
Equally important is that this home offers style, design and all the modern amenities most people desire. VIEW MORE PICTURES HERE
Using efficient and clean systems, this home is truly meant for those who call themselves ‘green’. Discover some of the methods used to create this lovely home.
Hydronic heating with Heat Recovery filtration andHEPA air cleaners.

Solar heating and recycled and non-toxic materials were used where ever possible.
A separate and fully self contained main floor suite works perfectly for a nanny or extended family (mother in laws will love this!)
