As detailed by EcoHome, Manzanita Trail's design and features save natural resources, reduce utility bills and address other environmental concerns, all while delivering the upscale quality this family market has embraced by fueling a strong sales rate at the new neighborhood. The case study details Pardee Homes
LivingSmart brand, which offers new home standards and options geared to
EnergySmart,
EarthSmart,
HealthSmart and
WaterSmart benefits.
"LivingSmart's categories help buyers easily understand their new home's eco-friendly framework, and the optional green features they may choose to add to their new home package," said Joyce Mason, Pardee's vice president of marketing. "Making it easy to be green is part of the objective."
With such standards and options as Low-E windows, engineered lumber, roof-integrated solar panels, tankless water heaters, flooring of renewable resources and radiant barrier roof sheathing, Manzanita Trail exemplifies the LivingSmart brand. The company introduced LivingSmart in 1998 and is implementing it in all upcoming new home projects and in most current projects for homes under construction. Pardee Homes builds new homes and communities throughout Southern California and in Las Vegas.
Manzanita Trail is the latest neighborhood at Pacific Highlands Ranch, which Pardee launched in concert with the comprehensive application of LivingSmart at its eco-friendly master-planned community.
Pacific Highlands Ranch features preserved open space, habitat and wetlands restoration and a broad array of housing choices and community amenities. Land planning is by Latitude 33 (
www.latitude33.com).
Manzanita Trail was recently named Community of the Year and Buyer's Choice Community of the Year in the SoCal Awards, a prestigious competition of Sales and Marketing Councils of Southern California. Community of the Year winners were determined by judges in the homebuilding field, while Buyer's Choice designations were determined solely by home shoppers. Participating shoppers picked Manzanita Trail over 58 competitors for this coveted designation. Visit
