Solar-Powered In-Law House

        Home Sustainability Our Approach Today's News Getting Started Portfolio

This 600 square-foot in-law apartment and garage features on-demand solar hot-water heating. The long, south-facing sloped

roof aligns solar collectors to the sun. Exterior is of stained vertical cedar siding above a local mason's stone veneer

foundation. The in-law space required no change to the single-family status of the property, and the building is ready for a future

kitchen, with roughed-in plumbing. Click on picture for slideshow.
