Affordable green homes...

...that sounds like an oxymoron but this website features home kits that have all the green features anyone might want, and great bang for your buck. The R1 is a 2-story house, not spare on style and a better option for todays modern family. It features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, but also includes options for an addition and garage. Green measures include radiant heat, passive solar design, a grey water system, and whole house fan. These kits are not complete, however they do include SIPs (structural insulated panel) for the exterior walls & roof, and design documents, so you can finish the interior with your local contractor. A list of windows, doors and cladding is available, making it easier for your contractor to order them directly from the vendor. This isn't prefab, but it is a great kit house design which still allows for your own customization on the interior, and some exterior cladding options also. The kits start around $30k depending on location. If you aren't keen on the modern look, they are launching a sister site for the cottage style enthusiasts.
