Bethesda Bungalows is proud to announce that we have contracted to build a home in the Hawkseye development in Lewes, Delaware, bordering Cape Henlopen State Park. This will be our first home in this development, and our first project outside of the DC Metro area.

Christian Gladu has completed the design of the home, see the elevation below.

We've hired Kevin Gallagher to be our site supervisor, and he's just back from a week-long scouting trip of the project. He met with Paul Townsend, a renown local Developer and Realtor, and had in-depth discussions about the building methods that are approved for the development, local tradesmen, special challenges given the location, and lots more.

Given the location right off the Delaware coast, we've also been exploring wind power options.

On a related note, the State of Delaware has recently announced that starting in 2025, all new commercial building will need to be "net zero". It seems like a long way off, but it will be 2025 before you know it.
