New Shelburne Home
Super-Insulated Home



  This home captures the spirit of Sarah Susanka's "Not So Big House". Although less than 1400 sq feet, it feels spacious and cozy inside. It is a simple cape design and features wet spray cellulose insulation in the walls with an R-50 roof. It heats with primarily wood (less than 1.5 cords per year) and radiant floor heat (only on the first floor) sourced from a wall vented high efficiency oil furnace that can burn bio-diesel. This home also features solar photovoltaic panels which are net metered. Excess electricity is run back into the grid.
