Zero entry

Enjoy no steps from the curb to your front door. Zero entry homes are ideal for people with disabilities or elderly homeowners who want to lower their risk of falling.

The Juniper Collection

Slab design

Homes built on a slab means no steps are required to enter or access any part of the home. There are no basement steps to navigate inside the home. Safety from inclement weather and other disasters is maintained with the inclusion of a safe room built with a reinforced concrete block and a steel plate ceiling. The safe room can also serve as a sanitation room!

Door levers vs door knobs

Levers often add a more modern touch to your home and can be better for those with arthritis or difficulty with grip strength.

Touchless light switches

Touchless light switches help control the lights in a home without the need to physically flip a switch. 

Solid surface flooring

Solid surface flooring is stable and firm to compensate for any lack of balance or use of walking aids.

Grab bars

Grab bars offer a secure and steady place for people to latch on to, significantly reducing the risk of falling,

Ample lighting

The ability to have bright lighting throughout the home makes it easier to accomplish tasks and provides extra illumination. Many light outlets, combined with natural lighting, increases comfort in the home.

Sound absorbing materials

The use of sound absorbing materials increases privacy and prevents voices from carrying too far away.
