Ohtama subdivision in Evergreen, Colorado is encouraging their new owners and builders to build energy efficient custom homes.

(PRWEB) November 19, 2009

The developers of Ohtama, a quiet subdivision above the town of Evergreen, Colorado, have announced they are encouraging their new owners to Go Green! “Our architectural control committee will be reviewing each building plan to encourage as much energy efficiency as possible, as that will help our environment,” says Mack and Andi Durbin, Broker/Owners of Rooftop Realty, exclusive marketing agents for Ohtama.

There are many different materials that can be utilized in new green built construction. Wrapping your home to keep the outside temperatures out is just one way to achieve energy efficiency. Other ideas include proper types of insulation, covered entryways and high R-valued windows. Since each home site is a half acre or more, solar power is a possibility. “We are encouraging our homeowners to include environmentally friendly designs wherever possible,” stated Don Bain, developer of Ohtama.

With the growing desire for energy efficient homes in Colorado, Ohtama is offering many suggestions for their new owners. A great place to start would be to watch the video series from HGTVPro.com with Scott Branscom where you can watch what he did to build his first green home.

Building green need not be intimidating. The Ohtama team has arranged for two of the best green custom home builders in the area to assist with design and construction. John Kurowski of Kurowski Development Co. is known as the grandfather of the build green movement. Dennis Marshall of Marshall Building Enterprises is the only custom home builder to twice be named Builder of the Year by the NAHB.

“Ohtama is a community where energy efficient homes are sought after. We want to give our homeowners every opportunity to make their custom homes as beautiful and ‘green’ as possible,” says Mack Durbin. When they ‘Come Home to Ohtama’, it will be to the home of their dreams.
