We recently had the pleasure of touring Homes on Esprit Park and were delighted with the beauty and elegance of the design, as well as with the amount of green features. If you are interested in touring this gorgeous development in progress, please contact us at
to be connected with an agent. Competitive sales prices are available for a limited of time so please don't hesitate to get in touch with us!
More About the Project
We set out to build homes that would blend seamlessly into the rich
history of the Dogpatch/Potrero Hill community. We offer simple and
elegant design solutions that integrate the historic character of these
existing brick structures with the new and inviting spirit of these
homes.
Homes on Esprit Park are
livable. Each home is the result of our planning process centering on
meeting the needs of each homeowner through enlightened and long-term
urban design.
Homes on Esprit Park are ideally
situated. Restaurants, shops, entertainment and recreation are in close
proximity, and transportation is easily accessible.
Homes on Esprit Park are
environmentally thoughtful. Wherever possible, we have used the
original building materials from the structure's former incarnations as
the Schilling Wine Cellars built in 1906 and, more recently, as the
Esprit company headquarters. Landscaping has been designed to
incorporate many sustainable measures. And all finishes have been
considered for their low environmental impact.
We believe the result has
surpassed our original vision and invite you to come share in our
vibrant community.
Green Aspects:
- All timbers from the original brick structure we're either re-used or sent for reconditioning and re-use.
- Reuse of two structures rather than demolition.
- Nearly all units designed to have two exposures to aid in natural heating and cooling and cross ventilation.
- High-efficiency dual-glazed window systems.
- Sound and thermally insulated buildings.
- Large windows for natural lighting.
- Trex (recycled wood) materials for roof decks.
- Concrete and steel construction (rather than wood-frame).
- Concrete and steel construction (rather than wood-frame). Both the aggregate in the concrete and the steel have a significant proportion of recycled content.
- Preservation of large, existing specimen trees on-site and off-site.
- Ideally located 2 blocks from both Light Rail and Cal Train to encourage public transportation use.
- FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified wood flooring
- Efficient and effective water-based radiant floor heating (except mezannine areas in brick buildings where it will be baseboard radiant)
- Significant green areas to capture rain water and prevent runoff and create a tree canopy in the south courtyard around the reflecting pool.
- City Care Share site planned for at least two cars. Encourages convenience use of automobile vs. purchase.
- Energy efficient appliances and toilet as standard in all units
