Net Zero House in The FingerLakes

A vacation home in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York, designed to be a net-zero residence, reflects a deep commitment to sustainability, local craftsmanship, and energy efficiency. The home features a main bedroom, sleeping loft, two bathrooms, and an open kitchen, dining, and living area. Building systems include geothermal radiant heating, solar panels, low-flow plumbing fixtures, discreet LED lighting, and induction cooking, enabling the house to often generate more energy than it consumes. Approximately 95% of the construction materials and furnishings were manufactured in the United States, much of it sourced within 100 miles, emphasizing a focus on regional production and environmental responsibility.
