In the marketplace today, homebuyers face an overwhelming array of choices and options. What sets Insite Residential apart is how we bring a passion for creating authentic residences and communities to Charlotte’s most desirable neighborhoods. Known for a careful blend of sustainability, luxury, and innovation, our intention is to only build homes in which we ourselves would feel proud to live. Most importantly, Insite Residential listens – and by working closely with the surrounding neighborhood and planning officials, our architects and builders create lasting economic, social and environmental value for you and your community.
Designed to meet LEED building standards*, which are developed and administered by a nonprofit coalition, the ten eco-friendly town homes of Rea Gardens use fewer natural resources and offer a healthier, more comfortable living environment. From the site’s convenient walkability to shopping and public transportation to light-filled rooms and top-of-the line Energy Star appliances, the possibilities here are exciting.
· Better air quality
· thanks to air venting, moisture controls, and air supply management, as well as the use of zero-VOC paints, adhesives, sealants, carpets, formaldehyde-free countertops and cabinets, and renewable cork flooring.
· Durable, sustainable materials were used throughout the project, including renewable, recyclable, and regionally sourced and manufactured products like fiber-reinforced concrete siding.
· Pedestrian-friendly means you can walk safely and easily to visit neighbors, go shopping, or catch a bus downtown. From front porches and sidewalks to large backyards and common green spaces, Rea Gardens lets you live on your own terms.
· Energy savings through the use of highly efficient windows, appliances, heating, cooling and lighting systems, and optimal solar orientation.
· Efficient water systems harvest rainwater for landscaping, promote irrigation efficiency and utilize high-efficiency toilets, showers and faucets.
· Site management will divert up to 50% of the construction debris away from area landfills and minimize Rea Gardens’ environmental footprint.
· Native species landscaping preserves many of the site’s mature trees and offers plenty of shade, natural beauty, and drought-tolerant plants.
*Rea Gardens cannot apply for LEED certification until after your town home is completed, but our ecofriendly design and construction practices will carefully follow the guidelines established by the U.S. Green Building Council.
Which is why Rea Gardens offers both: urban, sophisticated living, convenient to all the excitement of in-town living. Yet it’s nestled in a quiet, secluded neighborhood – where shady sidewalks lead to a variety of local shopping and dining opportunities. Less than five miles from downtown Charlotte and only minutes from I-485 and the Charlotte Douglass International Airport, this secluded town home community will offer a limited opportunity to live among the soft hills and grassy lanes of beautiful south Charlotte.
