The Enchantment Way designed with green building techniques

October 01, 2008 - Front Section
The Enchantment Way development will be a gated community of homes. The plan outlined reflects the creation of eight homes on five acres in the southwest valley of the city, each designed with innovative "green" building techniques.
With views of the Strip, Red Rock, southern highlands and the entire east valley, the estate homes, each on a half acre, will fill the valley. Enchantment Way will be available as a groundbreaking fractional ownership development.
Each home will also be LEED certified. USGBC has launched a pilot program to bring the same quality rating system to residential construction. Enchantment Way's participation in achieving the LEED Gold or Platinum will signify its position in the forefront of environmentally sensitive and energy efficient design and technology.
Owners will be able to take possession of the homes under a fractional ownership plan which The Robb Report promotes as the strong trend that continues to grow rapidly.
Tate Snyder Kimsey has designed the homes. LEED certified architect Mike Purtill, TSK partner Windom Kimsey, design architect Vince Novak along with the general contractor came together to ensure the cost-effective use of every green building technique and advantage available.
Among other advantages, you can have access to and will utilize certain tax exemptions, tax abatements and rebates.
The Enchantment Way also includes a Desert Tortoise Habitat, enhancing the lives of the federally protected species. It is preserving the desert growth currently found on the property, including cactus and yuccas, for re-planting after the homes are completed.
