For discerning home buyers who want their next home to be a "built green"home, there is only one destination, and it's right here in Lacey. Bennett Homes, recognized with repeat awards such as "Builder Excellence", "Best Home Design", "Builder of the Year" and more than 100 MAME awards is building their exquisite homes to "built green" standards at the Campus Highlands Estate community in Lacey's Hawks Prairie area.

 

Bennett homes are built with higher strength engineered wood products, fiber cement siding, energy efficient windows, and their homes include a high efficiency furnace, energy star rated appliances, environmentally friendly flooring, low or-no VOC paints. Environmentally conscious building practices are evident when one visits a Bennett Homes building site. Construction waste gets collected, sorted and recycled. The benefits of these choices are healthier indoor air, energy efficiency, enhanced savings and environmental preservation.

As one of the region's leaders in sustainable building practices, Bennett has been recognized for its achievements in the Built Green program and was honored with the Built Green Pioneer Award in 2007 and the Built Green Hammer Award in 2006. Visitors to the Olympia Master Builders Built Green website will be greeted with the image of a Bennett Home http://www.builtgreenomb.org/members/index.html

For anyone who wants to provide a healthy, cost-effective, well-designed home for their family, while also being mindful of the environment will realize that a Bennett home is not just the logical choice, but the ecological choice.

Mary,

Bennett definitely "gets it". I hope that soon the rest of the builder community will catch on.

Hi Stephanie,

The prices range from the mid $400K to the high $500K. These homes are large and are in a golf course community. Broken down by dollar per square foot, they are just barely over the county average.
