We could not have asked for a more perfect site to build on than Lake Samish Lookout. Besides the striking views all around, the lot is mostly flat and already came with utilities stubbed on site. There were also no trees harmed in the building of this home. In all, the lot created a very cost-effective build which made all parties happy!<\/span><\/p>\n Lake Samish Lookout was designed to use space efficiently and effectively while optimizing the stunning easterly views of Lake Samish and natural southern lighting. The house includes 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and an upside-down layout with a spacious, open kitchen, dining and living room on the second floor looking over the lake and surrounding forest. From the second floor living space, you can effortlessly access the 240 sqft deck for the full panoramic views. Whether it be outdoor cooking and dining, lounging, or working with a view, the spacious deck adds a complementary flex space to the small footprint home for bigger living. In total, this Net-Zero house measures 1500 sqft and was completed the summer of 2022.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Lake Samish Lookout was built using our standard TC Legend envelope and mechanical systems but with Fujitsu 18RL heat pump with one head on each floor. On the Southwest sloping metal roof, sits an 8.1kW photovoltaic array, allowing the house to produce an excess of electricity to power both the house and an electric vehicle, qualifying the house as a Net-Positive home. The aesthetic wooden arbor in the northeast corner of the house coveys the roof\u2019s stormwater to an unusual up-slope infiltration trench required by the site topography.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n With a 0.41 air changes per hour, the envelop sealing exceeds Passivehaus standards. We expect the home to receive at least a 4 Star Built Green rating and has received Department of Energy\u2019s Zero Energy Ready Home rating, Energy Star certification and EPA\u2019s Indoor AirPLUS certification.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Lead carpenter Jeff did a superb job managing the construction on this cozy abode, with photographer John Trax commenting that this was the cleanest construction site he has ever seen. On site just about every day for the last 2 months of the build, Jeff made sure the house was finished to the highest standards!<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3626,3641,3636,3628,3631,3632,3629,3630,3634,3635,3633,3627,3637,3638,3639,3640,3624,3625,3623″ posts_number=”20″ show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” module_class=”pa-image-gallery-1-1″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_gallery][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/tclegendhomes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Floorplan.png” title_text=”Floorplan” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/tclegendhomes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Untitled-design-21.png” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” title_text=”Untitled design (21)” width=”44%” max_width=”40%” url=”https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/indoorairplus” module_alignment=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_margin=”|||16px||”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We could not have asked for a more perfect site to build on than Lake Samish Lookout.
