The North Village will be an extension of the Windsor community and feature 34 homesites averaging 75-by-100 feet and six row houses ranging from 3,500 to 4,500 square feet adjacent to the Indian River Lagoon.The private community has been crafted to feature a heightened commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency as well as embrace practices that reduce its ecological footprint.
The construction team is presently doing prep work at the project site while awaiting final permits. Infrastructure construction is expected to begin in late summer or fall, according to the project team. Windsor is a legacy endeavor started by W. Galen and Hilary M. Weston of Toronto. They visited South Florida in search of a winter home and became enchanted by the property. Now, Hilary Weston and daughter Alannah Weston are completing the project and have shaped the vision for the North Village.
Residences are being geared to achieve Passive House certification for energy efficiency by using less energy for heating and cooling and using features like continuous insulation, high-performance windows and balanced heat and moisture recovery ventilation to optimize indoor air quality.The homes will have technology that turns off HVAC systems during the most temperate months of the year.
The village, meanwhile, will protect neighbouring wildlife and support the coastal wetland ecosystem through a combination of management practices. They include the use of local, natural, renewable materials, minimization of noise, light, particle and air pollution, and elimination of pesticides.
