Discover why you’ll never want to leave the Net Zero Energy Ready homes of Watercolour
Better living, lower cost and environmentally sustainable. That’s the story behind Watercolour’s Net Zero Energy Ready homes in Westport, Ont. The Net Zero initiative is designed to improve construction standards and reduce carbon emissions, while reducing the costly bills that homeowners face each month. Super insulated, super airtight and super ventilated, these cottage style homes are the peak of home comfort and efficiency.
Running at 80 per cent higher efficiency than standard homes currently constructed, each home is built to last. Better air quality, more control of in-home temperatures and potential renewable energy source add-ons will stand the test of time.
With higher standards comes empowerment. Each home is built ready to accommodate solar panels for nearly 100 per cent self-sufficient power. Solar is a high value commodity and a lifelong asset to efficient homes.
To create these homes, Watercolour recruited expert craftsmen with homeowner comfort in mind. The homes include high efficiency Dettson Air Source Heat Pump furnaces, Owens Corning Foamular, an insulation that protects against unwanted airflows throughout the all seasons, Jeld-Wen triple pane windows, and energy efficient ProTerra Air Source Hot Water tanks. Together, these products make a comfortable, low operating cost living space for the people who will make this place home.
Highly efficient and sustainable features don’t make a house a home — people do. Watercolour is in the business of people. A community built by a community.
Through the vision and commitment of founders and presidents of awardwinning Ottawa home builder, Land Ark Homes, Steve and Diana Rolston are bringing their passion for people and dedication to environmental stewardship to Westport.
“We fell in love with Westport over 20 years ago, and we want to share it with others. We want homes to achieve the Net Zero Energy Ready standard but also blend in with the existing Craftsman style heritage homes,” says Steve Rolston.
Together, these homes have been carefully planned in a walkable, traditional neighbourhood design and crafted to complement Westport and the surrounding region. It’s a remarkable destination that combines home and cottage year-round where homeowners can enjoy all the surrounding nature. Westport is the place to call home.
Better location, better value, better living. Owning a home can be a high maintenance project, but with Watercolour it’s made simple, affordable and efficient. Watercolour has created a never-before-seen balance between environmental sustainability and simplified home ownership. Come and see for yourself.
