From March of 05-July of 06 we built a new house on an urban infill lot near downtown Sacramento. Jeff designed it, Mike was the general contractor. Our house is 3 stories high and 17' wide x 72' long. Among the goals were energy efficiency, cool design, & noise mitigation as we are right next to an 8 lane freeway.
The house has solar electric, solar hot water & radiant heat. For the past 4 years we have been working on the landscaping...

Front Courtyard Progress
I can not believe how hard it was to get all the gravel screened out of the planting beds in the front courtyard... Notice to home builders.....protect your planting beds if at all possible....the compaction was intense....
