Introducing Green Vista Homes: Modern Living in Bellingham, WA

February 13, 2020 by Chrystal Doucette 1 Comment

Bellingham’s home development Green Vista Homes is poised to become Whatcom County’s most modern housing community.

With Green Vista Homes, these luxury features come standard:

Exterior Features

Smart Garage Door Opener

We proudly install locally made Wayne Dalton Garage Doors, which offer superior insulation, durability, and dent resistance.

We provide a Liftmaster opener with smart technology that allows it to be controlled with your phone, two remotes, and a keypad. The openers are upgraded to a belt drive for a quieter and more reliable opening.

Durable Door Materials

We use Codel fiberglass doors for durability, higher insulation values, and moisture protection.

All door hardware is Schlage with an entry handleset and deadbolts on all exterior doors.

Native Landscaping in Private Yards

Landscaping at Green Vista Homes is designed by a landscape architect to be a dryscape with native plants for longevity. Eight inches of topsoil is brought in along with locally grown sod.

Each home includes a rear yard fence for privacy. The fence boards are logged, milled, and kiln dried here in Whatcom County and pre-stained with Benjamin Moore Arborcoat.

Quality Windows, Siding, and Decks

Each home is made with Plygem double-pane windows for efficiency and owner comfort. They are backed by a Lifetime Warranty.

Decks are built with high performance, low maintenance Trex Decking, which is made from 95% recycled material and includes a 25-Year Warranty.

We proudly install James Hardie Siding – the world leader in siding durability.

All exterior concrete is 6-sack, which is more durable than standard and is sealed with Diamond Clear for durability and easier cleaning.

Solar Panel Roofing

Each home includes eight solar panels to reduce the owner’s electrical costs and lessen the environmental impact of each home. Each panel will help lower the cost of electricity in your home, as well as help create cleaner air and a better environment.

The roof is installed by a local contractor using locally made IKO Architectural Roofing Shingles, with a Limited Lifetime 30-Year Guarantee.

Gourmet Kitchens

Our homes come with gourmet, high-end GE stainless appliances, including:

  • Gas slide-in range for a built-in look
  • Powerful GE chimney range hood (per plan)
  • Flush door GE dishwasher

An Opaci-Coat solid glass backsplash adds protection and a striking contrast in the designer kitchen.

Our beautiful modern gloss cabinets, from HighCraft Cabinets in Ferndale, come with wood drawers, dovetail joints, extra height upper cabinets, and soft close features. They also include a great warranty.

The countertops are made of 3 cm premium natural quartz from MSI and include a lifetime warranty.

All homes come standard with a stainless under-mount sink in the kitchen and square
ceramic under-mount sinks in all baths (unless pedestal).

The Delta pullout sprayer faucet in the kitchen comes with a Lifetime Warranty (and lasts twice as long as the industry standard).

Luxurious Bathrooms

Every home comes standard with a master bath shower door with a chrome frame and clear glass.

Other bathroom features include:

  • MAAX one-piece acrylic showers and tub/showers with a lifetime warranty.
  • Ceramic square under-mount sinks for a modern look and easy cleaning.
  • Delta plumbing fixtures for style and quality.
  • Western Pottery elongated toilets for added comfort.
  • Quality vanities with soft-close features from HighCraft Cabinets of Ferndale.

Each home comes standard with a Toto Washlet in the Master Bath. The washlet warms the lid and pre-rinses when one sits down and has a remote control for various spray options and dryer operation. Toto is the industry leader in washlets.

Premium Flooring and Carpering

Each home at Green Vista homes is outfitted with Shaw Carpet, which has the best stain-fighting technology in the industry.

We also use Shaw Vinyl Plank Flooring, which is both durable and beautiful. The flooring is:

  • 100% waterproof
  • Backed with a Soft Silence acoustical pad for noise reduction and added comfort

We also use luxury sheet vinyl from Mannington Mills. The lifetime-backed flooring features advanced printing and texturing technologies. It is the best-looking and best-performing sheet vinyl floor in the market.

Throughout the Home

We believe the finishing touches are important.

Lighting

We believe lighting has the power to give homes a more inviting and luxurious feel.

With this in mind, we install Progress and/or Kichler Lighting in every home. We stand behind the belief that spending a little more for quality, contemporary lighting gives our homes a more inviting and luxurious feeling.

Heating, Ventilation, and Cooling

Per plan, we install a Napolean Linear Ascent Fireplace, with a custom surround and a hand painted log set. Each fireplace comes with a fan for added comfort.

Each home is supplied with a Rinnai Tankless Hot Water Heater for on demand and efficient hot water.

We use American Standard ductless heat pumps, which have up to a 5-Year Parts and Labor Warranty. These units provide efficient heating and cooling. In addition to being maintenance-free, these heat pumps are quiet and allow for single-zone climate control.

Each home comes with a Panasonic ERV air filter system that pushes stale air out and replaces it with fresh, clean air. In winter, the ERV heats the incoming air, and in the summer, it cools it down. The ERV is both affordable to buy and run in your home. They are very quiet, and last for more than 11 years without shutting it off.

Aerobarrier is a material that, when sprayed throughout the home during the construction phase, completely seals off any holes in the home that would allow for increased airflow and decreased heating and cooling. This material allows your new home to be airtight, significantly decreasing your energy bill.

We install Carlisle Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation, which is the most efficient form of insulation, in the roof framing. Benefits of this insulation include noise reduction, sturdiness, and longevity, and preventing mold, mildew, and bugs.

Features After the Sale

Prior to the closing of each home, we have a pest inspection performed by Environmental Pest Control. Following the inspection, exclusion work is performed to reduce the risk of pests troubling your new home.

At the seller’s expense, a third-party warranty is purchased at closing from 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. This provides the new home with a transferable 1-Year Cosmetic, 2-Year Mechanical Systems, and a 10-Year Structural Warranty.

All the vendors that build your home are local and established companies for trusted support.
