With all due respect to Kermit the Frog, it is easy being green, especially for Home & Condo's 2003 Dream Home at The Estates at TwinEagles. Open through the end of the month, this $3.75 million home is the embodiment of environmental building practices, proving that a home can be built in harmony with nature. Designed to conserve energy and water, have minimal impact on its setting and improve indoor air quality for its occupants (you probably don't even want to know what you're breathing right now), the home-appropriately called The Natural Evolution-employs an arsenal of enviro-friendly materials and special systems to accomplish this mission. And because it is, after all, a Dream Home, you can count on fabulous furnishings and interior design-also very green, of course.
Proceeds from each $15 ticket go to a worthwhile cause-the Naples Philharmonic League, which supports the Philharmonic Orchestra and its youth music education programs. Tours are offered Tuesdays through Sundays through March 30 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. And for the first time ever, group tours are available and include a trip through the home, lunch at The Club at TwinEagles and a commemorative rose.
The Estates at TwinEagles is located on Immokalee Road seven miles east of I-75 in North Naples. For more information, call 352-8000 or visit www.DreamHome2003.com. Group tours can be arranged by calling Claudia Polzin at the Naples Philharmonic Orchestra at 597-0670, or e-mail cpolzin@naplesphilcenter.org.
