MicroModern

Stylish - Smart - Secure

Greencastle proudly introduces our new line of premium homes for 21st century living. Not too big, not too small, but just right. The “elegant solution” to modern living, is currently available in three styles. Microhouse is capable of reducing your electric bill to pocket change with your help. And, hurricane resistance is built right in, along with peace and quiet.

This “right-sized” approach means a small footprint resulting in a spacious yard with enough room for backyard destinations, a pool or garden and real trees. A second floor allows access to gentle breezes, sunset views, and a higher floor in the event of a storm. And these well built homes need less dusting! Please keep in mind while viewing the following images, that they are artists' interpretations and will differ somewhat from actual construction. Pricing is for local construction and is subject to change.

The MicroModern

The MicroModern, the ultimate in minimalism. If you like it bold, then this is the one for you. It is a totally new and unique design with style galore. Just wait till you see the interior. What a great house to invite friends to. With an 18 foot high ceiling in the living room and a loft above there is a great sense of space in this perfectly sized creation. Notice the vaulted ceiling over the master bedroom with clerestory windows to bring in the light. Gather around the eco friendly fireplace or retreat to the private roof top deck off of the Master bedroom. And when you come home tired, take the glass elevator (optional) upstairs. Here are the highlights
