"Legacy Custom Homes, LLC is proud to announce that one of our recent signature projects has been accepted for LEED certification by the United States Green Building Council. This prestigious project displays Legacy's wide range of comprehensive capabilities and services. The historic Howard Van Doren Shaw designed residence and coach house sit on 17 lakefront acres in Highland Park. The landscape was originally designed by Jens Jensen.
The main home was restored and added to in a seamless manner. Modern elements and green technology were incorporated while still thoughtfully paying homage to the historic nature of this property. Legacy worked with the homeowners and a quality group of design professionals to realize the revitalization of a historic treasure in an environmentally conscious manner."
