Description
Houses in The Pinehills range from innovative townhomes to classic single-family residences to elegant custom designs. Every architect and builder must remain true to the original vision of this exclusive community: active open spaces, intimate neighborhoods, and respect for what is part of the world’s third-largest pine ecosystem.
When The Pinehills was chosen as the site of the HGTV 2010 Green Home, MacKenzie Brothers was selected from multiple candidates. In addition to our reputation for quality craftsmanship, our understanding of state-of-the-art energy practices and appropriate building materials was an important factor.
The finished home is considered unique in many ways. Special features include barrel vaulted ceilings, a genuine fieldstone fireplace, and a home office.
This project was published in Southern New England Home Magazine’s 2010 Annual Eition.
