This single-level home is ideal for a couple looking for a small seasonal or year-round home with separate guest quarters to accommodate adult children or occasional guests. A common screen porch is located between the main home and the guest quarters to provide a high level of privacy. To capture the passive solar potential, the spaces are aligned in a linear fashion to allow southerly light to penetrate all the way through the home. Additionally, we utilized simple, traditional roof forms and optimized the roof slope to maximize solar panel production. This home has a high-efficiency building envelope and it could further be upgraded to Passive House standard. Another option, dependent on local zoning, is the addition of an efficiency kitchen in the guest lounge area to create a fully independent in-law apartment or rental unit.
