"Super Model" Home Opens in JULY!

McCullough Design Development has been busy creating their brand new “Super Model” home of the future.  Opening in Del Sur July 11^th and 12^th, this home is vastly different than their homes of the past.  MDD is introducing unique, modern elements both inside and out.  The home has a more urban and bold look with dark stone and brick textures interspersed with smooth acrylic stucco on the outside.  The interior is open and inviting, filled with more modern, varying textures seen in the brick accented walls and ceiling and the use of exposed steel I-beams.  Transitional finishes are durable and easy to clean as displayed by the quartzite countertops, rectified porcelain flooring, and epoxy garage finish.  MDD’s classic great room is the central focus of the home, opening up through sets of flush track panoramic French doors to the outdoor veranda room.  Nearly seamless transitions lead to the full outdoor kitchen with stainless steel cabinets and the outdoor spa-spool.    

One of the most exciting parts of their brand new model home is the environmentally efficient features.  The home is equipped with a photovoltaic system supplying the home with usable power from the sun while reducing the energy the home takes from the utility grid.  Many of the appliances are high-efficiency, like the electric dryers, which harness the energy from the solar panels to save money.  Lighting in the home is all high-efficiency LED, much of which can be turned on/off with a phone or tablet through the smart home automation system.  The use of solatubes for additional natural lighting also reduces electricity use.  Air conditioning and heating units with variable speed blowers use less energy to keep the home at a consistent temperature.   The home is fully insulated and the use of cool attic plywood at roofing keeps rooms at a stable temperature regardless of fluctuating weather throughout the year.  A hybrid water heater with recirculation pump increases efficiency while reducing water waste.  Landscaping is designed with low water-use plants and trees, using a programmable drip irrigation system.   All of these features make this the model for many homes in the future.
