Serenity Under the Oaks

Come with us on a journey to Serenity Under the Oaks in San Diego, California. Serenity Under the Oaks is our first venture into custom green home building and is projected to be complete by XXXXX. From the moment we first saw the land that we ultimately selected to build Serenity Under the Oaks, we could feel the serenity and spirituality exuding from every rock, oak tree, and view point. This has served as our inspiration for this future home.
 
With Serenity Under the Oaks, we are building with intentionality and respect for the land and the Kumeyaay people who are native to the region. We embrace the history and legacy of the Kumeyaay people who inhabited this land. Rather than removing the surrounding nature for this build, the home will be built directly into nature and will use innovative technology and green architecture principles to ensure net zero energy emissions.
