When you select a sustainable home for sale at Whisper Valley in Manor, Texas, you make a positive impact on the world you live in. Our eco-friendly homes are not only beautiful and comfortable – they also allow you to live a lifestyle that benefits the planet and your well-being.
Whisper Valley’s homes utilize EcoSmart Solution Technology which uses a community-wide geothermal system to harness the Earth’s natural temperature for efficient heating and cooling. This innovative approach reduces reliance on fossil fuels and minimizes greenhouse gas emissions, leaving a cleaner world for future generations. What’s more, our eco-friendly homes for sale incorporate solar photovoltaic panels that transform sunlight into clean, renewable electricity. By reducing your dependence on the grid, you’re actively contributing to a healthier world and lessening the strain on traditional power sources.
But the benefits extend beyond environmental impact. Whisper Valley’s geothermal system operates virtually silently, creating a tranquil living environment free from noisy fans and compressors. And our homes feature geothermal air filtration, which reduces outside allergens in the air, resulting in better indoor air quality.
You might think that eco-friendly, green energy homes cost far more than traditional homes, due to the added costs that come with stricter building practices, more efficient appliances, sustainable materials, energy-rated windows and other energy saving technologies. Actually, the green energy homes for sale at Whisper Valley near Austin, Texas are more affordable than traditional homes in the area when you consider the long term savings on energy costs.
The sustainable homes for sale at Whisper Valley are priced from the low $300s to the $700s. As of March 2024, the median sale price for a single-family home in Austin, TX was $589,995, up 2.8% from last year.
Homes at Whisper Valley are zero energy capable homes. This means that the home has the capability to generate as much power as it consumes in any given time period when homeowners practice good energy behavior. If power produced equals power consumed, the difference between the two is zero, hence, a “net-zero” energy home.
Because each Whisper Valley home is built using energy-saving materials and appliances, and each is connected to the community’s GeoGrid™ via a geothermal heat pump, most earn a Home Energy Rating System (HERS) score of 16-25. (The average new-construction home built today earns a score of around 60.) This score means our homes are about 75-80% more energy efficient than other new homes for sale in the Austin area.
This means when a home’s solar photovoltaic panels turn the sun’s rays into electricity, it could be producing as much power as it is using. Or more! That’s why Whisper Valley homes are called zero energy capable. Homeowners can save approximately $2,000 per year, and reach zero-energy living, depending on their usage.
With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in Congress, consumers with energy-efficient homes have access to thousands of dollars in tax credits.
Homeowners can deduct 30% of the cost of their home’s solar PV system, geothermal equipment, and home battery storage systems.
One Whisper Valley homeowner, Michael Witt, had this to say about Whisper Valley’s affordable, zero energy capable Austin-area homes:
“I thought that kind of technology was unattainable to people like me who are in the entry-level home market. It’s refreshing that you have builders and developers who are willing to try new things. It not only saves on monthly bills, but really pays off in the long-term value of your house.”
Whisper Valley’s sustainable homes offer a perfect blend of affordability, comfort, and environmental responsibility. Come see for yourself how Whisper Valley can turn your dream home into a reality.
