Leading Atlanta Eco Builder Delivers Area Firsts in Design and Construction

Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) May 21, 2007 -- Eco Custom Homes has engaged in the practice of designing semi-custom homes for 6 years and with Forrest Manor, they raise the bar in the Atlanta area for sustainable, luxury living. "Forrest Manor" introduces Atlantans to a higher quality of sustainable living with Atlanta building firsts for semi-custom homes including the first rain harvesting system; the first Spider™ insulation installation; the first installation of Paperstone™ countertops; and the first deck using sustainability harvested Ebony & Lace Ipe decking.

"Forrest Manor" is a 6500 square foot, gated Estate Home on a 1.3 acre wooded lot in Sandy Springs priced at $1,775,000. The home is 60 days from completion and already offers Atlanta buyers their first glimpse of the "must have" quality and detail they should expect from their builder whether investing in a custom or semi-custom eco home. In addition to these area firsts, Eco Custom Homes incorporates other eco details in their homes such as on-demand hot water heating systems; alternatives to MDF materials, Super High Efficient HVAC Systems with less than 4% leakage, and formaldehyde-free house insulation. "We constantly research, test and implement new products in our homes," explains Jeff Dinkle, President, Eco Custom Homes. "This practice maintains our vanguard status in building semi-custom, eco luxury and will lead us to our goal of providing zero energy leakage homes, as well."

Eco Custom Homes is a 100% Earthcraft™ homebuilding partner and collaborates with other companies including Atlanta's Waldenour to incorporate eco standards, luxury, comfort, and an overall natural energy flow throughout their homes. "It is a pleasure to be affiliated with a group of like minded people, working together to achieve something that will be a positive influence in so many degrees, from the personal perspective to the global perspective," offers Karen Raymer, Principal at Waldenour, an Eco Design Source. "Bringing the vision of eco-friendly custom building to reality has cultivated a whole new dimension to the Atlanta real estate market."
