Old world style, modern performance create award-winning home design to last for generations
The award-winning Belcaro Woods residence combines the architectural elegance of English Tudor manors with the comforts of modern American living. Weston Construction Corporation designed and built the home to last for generations, while incorporating the proportion, scale and detail of generations past.The National Association of Home Builders recognized this accomplishment with a 2009 Silver Medal, and the Denver Home Builders Association named the project its 2008 Custom Home of the Year.
Located at 3336 Belcaro Dr. in Denver, this three-story, eight-bedroom, eight-bathroom, single-family home features 151 windows and four, oversized French doors chosen from Kolbe’s Ultra Series line of premium, aluminum-clad wood windows. The LoE2-270 glass enables Kolbe’s windows to meet or exceed ENERGY STARĀ® guidelines in all climate zones. The home’s 20-inch-thick walls also play a significant role. According to Michelle Miller, “The energy efficiency is astounding.” Living and working from the property, she sees $200-250/month energy bills for a house in excess of 12,000-square-feet.
