At Summer Hill, understated coastal elegance and environmental conscience combine to create luxury community living. Overlooking the Atlantic shoreline, 12 individually crafted, eco-friendly homes, constructed by Windover, gather around a village green that is part of over 14 acres of wooded conservation land. From the outside in, every detail at Summer Hill has been considered to provide refined, coastal living for its residents.

Unmatched sophistication in craft and finish reside in each of the three and four bedroom homes, all appointed with desirable amenities such as open-concept living, first floor master suites, custom cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and three season porches. The thought and attention given to window placement optimizes the views of the area’s natural landscape for its residents.

A Green, Sustainable Community

In striving to be a passive, net-zero residential community, green and eco-friendly elements were implemented throughout Summer Hill. High-end energy efficient technology and appliances were installed throughout the homes, in addition to strategically selected building systems and materials that contribute to green living. In each of the homes, for example, spray foam insulation and energy-efficient window systems create a building envelope that complies with Massachusetts’ Energy Star® requirements. The neighborhood reduces its overall environmental impact with elements such as a shared septic that eliminates nitrogen discharge, and with Low Impact Development features that ensure stormwater is not compromised.
