Southwest Austin Boasts New Eco-Friendly Homes!

Green is blooming all over Austin and it is not just from all our recent rains!  Several new eco-friendly green built neighborhoods are popping up all over southwest Austin and the new models are opening this spring.  Come check out the new model at  Las Casas Verdes which will feature 20 homes designed to meet LEED certification and Austin Green Building program standards.  So what does this mean for the new homeowner who purchases one of these beautiful homes?  How about not only  a home made from eco-friendly and recycled  materials, but one which boasts a 2200 gallon rainwater collection system, a 3-kilowatt solar panel system, metal roof, bamboo floors, and concrete countertops, and of course Energy Star appliances—all high tech ways to go green and a very livable 1800 sq. foot unique layout.  Prices are starting in the mid $300,000s.  Las Casas Verdes (which means Green Homes) are located very conveniently just off South Brodie on Sache Cove and Longview Rd.  And if you are thinking of moving here and would like more info on other green neighborhoods or green homes, give us a call at Cool Houses Austin 512-665-7778.  Spring is a wonderful time of year to move to Austin!
