Water Front, Green Homes?

Water Front, Green Homes?

There has long been a battle between valuable water front real estate and environmentally friendly housing. Drive down any coastline in the north east and you will find over the decades housing is winning.

All that is changing with a first of its kind community in Kent Island located in Queen Anne's County, MD. The Homes at Osprey Pointe by Nexus EnergyHomes is a zero carbon footprint waterfront community, the produces it own power from renewable energy, re uses its own water and is completely green.

The first question most people ask is "who can pay for all that?" Surprisingly the price to buy a singly family home at Osprey Pointe starts below that of comparably sized town homes less then 1 mile away.


I think this project is a win for the MD area and for the US. We need more of this type of project moving forward. At the moment this builder has other communities in the North East located in:

  • Grasonville MD (Osprey Pointe)
  • Frederick, MD
  • New Market, MD
  • Deep Creek Lake, MD
  • Jefferson, MD
  • Philadelphia, PA
  • Millville, NJ

Pricing for "Net Zero" Energy homes by Nexus EnergyHomes starts in the mid $200's so if your in one of these markets you should check the product out. In the market or not this company is doing something great, show your support by becoming a fan on facebook or ad your self to their e mail list.
