Exterior front and paver driveway


We built this home business office space with a garage below utilizing many of the latest green building technologies.  The space is super energy efficient, with a comfortable flow and looks great in this colonial style neighborhood.  The husband and wife design team came up with a great design and worked together with Two Storey Building, to build it to their specifications and desires.

It appears to be the type of space we are looking for. Would you consider sharing more information on your building and/or design?
