When we met Corbin, he asked us to build him a home that was about as efficient as any ever constructed in Leavenworth. While he didn’t want to go for full Passive House certification, this home came close. And with its massive rooftop living area, complete with bed and outdoor shower, it turned out to be one of the coolest, most comfortable dwellings we’ve ever built.

Shortly after completing his dream home, Corbin found his plans unexpectedly changing. He moved away from Leavenworth and reluctantly put his home on the market. It is currently listed at $384,900.

Here’s what the listing states:


“Amazing custom Passive SIPS Green built home is just steps to the heart of Leavenworth, yet feels miles away. The requirements of this type of building gives you one of the most efficient homes of our time! Quality built by TC Legend Homes, the premiere builder of this kind of exceptional home. This home boast a sleek and modern look with amazing views. Concrete polished floors, rich dark wood floors in upper level, soaring ceilings, top appliances, concrete countertops, stone/tile showers, and extraordinary upper entertainment deck with its own shower and sleeping area. European ductless split heat/AC provide you with the little heat you need due to the passive solar gain & recovery ventilator. Triple pane windows. Beautiful yard to enjoy the plentiful wildlife. 1 car garage with tons of storage. ”
