Live Green! with Parkside Homes
A New Plan for a New Future
There is a new and exciting future in home design, and Parkside Homes has positioned itself as a regional leader in Green Building technology.
As Parkside Homes' President, Randy Chastain, explains, "The time has come for the housing industry to step up to its responsibilities in designing creatively efficient floor plans that offer sustainable housing options for the American public. No longer can we conscientiously design and build homes that waste space, waste natural resources, waste energy and waste our customers' money in an effort to operate under the old, and soon to be grossly outdated policy, of 'bigger is better.'"
Innovative Approach
Parkside Homes has spent two years perfecting its "Cottage" series to answer the call for Smart and Green Housing.
"We are currently processing our permits and will be starting construction of our first LEED certified housing in several Parkside Homes communities," Chastain says. "The first LEED cottages will be offered at The Village at Providence in Mt. Juliet, Tenn., beginning in April 2008."
Subsequent communities will add this product line in 2008. The cottages will be located at Cambridge Park in Nashville, Weston Park in Murfreesboro, Tenn., and Ashton Springs in Huntsville, Al.
LEED-ing the Way
According to Chastain, this innovative approach to home building has its rewards, beyond business.
"It's extremely rewarding to be able to tell our home buyers that Parkside Homes has found locations that shorten the time and money in commuting to work and shopping, give passive recreational opportunities within the communities, and create a village fabric of sustainable homes that are LEED certified."
Efficient floor plans, lower utility bills, commutes that give more time with family and homes that will be positioned for the 21st century make Parkside Homes Tennessee's most trusted name in Green Residential technology.

The Future
A final and important benefit of owning an energy-efficient LEED home from Parkside Homes comes at resale. There is no doubt that in the next few years more energy-efficient technologies will be mandated in home building.
Parkside Homes is implementing these technologies today. So when you decide to sell, your home will be positioned to meet the market standards. With Parkside Homes, you'll be living in a home built for the future!
