Construction Almost Complete at 907 Exum

Seed and sod are down at 907 Exum, a sure sign that construction is winding up. This is the newest home from the Durham Community Land Trustees, and continues their mission of building affordable, energy efficient homes that honor the architectural heritage of southwest central Durham. For more info about DCLT, check out my previous post. This bungalow is a spot built home in the Burch Avenue neighborhood. Three bedrooms, two baths, living room, dining room, and kitchen, and an easy walk to Duke and downtown.

With a list price of $104,000, this home is a great opportunity for first time homebuyers. Buyers will need to be first timers and owner occupants (sorry, no investors).

This home has energy efficient design, and was built to specific efficiency standards under the SystemVision initiative from Advanced Energy. SystemVision homes are built using rigorous quality standards; inspectors are active from the outset with input on the design of the home, and inspecting the construction site to ensure that standards are met every step of the way. Advanced Energy guarantees the results of their process - for the first two years of ownership, they guarantee that heating and cooling bills for the home won't exceed a certain amount.
