Green Hammer Design Build - The Oaks Zero Energy Senior Community

The Oaks Zero Energy Community at Rose Villa is the first community in the Portland senior housing market to produce all or more of its own energy needs through on-site renewable energy. The Oaks includes 12 craftsman-style homes built to meet Passive House principles that support health and energy efficiency. Residents will likely have low-to-no energy costs while enjoying comfortable, quiet homes with fresh, filtered air. Each home also features durable, high-quality finishes, modern, energy-efficient appliances and perks such as bicycle storage. Photos by Bill Purcell Photography.
