Design Home 2014: Net-Zero Energy Home in Salisbury, MA

Each year, Boston Magazine collaborates on building a Design Home in the towns and suburbs around Boston. This year's home was built in partnership with Ridgeview Construction, Tom and Natalie Treat, and Boston Children's Hospital in Salisbury, Massachusetts, and features smart home furnishings, eco-friendly appliances, and attractive detailing. The final result is this beautifully designed net-zero energy home. The solar panels on the roof are just one of the home's many sustainable features.
