At George, every detail is designed with both comfort and sustainability in mind. We love to highlight how each home brings in abundant natural light—without sacrificing energy efficiency.

Every residence at George is built with spray foam insulation and dual pane low-E windows, creating a living environment that is both bright and thoughtfully efficient. These features do more than lower energy bills, they improve your daily comfort in meaningful ways.

Why spray foam insulation matters

Spray foam insulation goes beyond traditional insulation by sealing every gap. The result? Superior energy efficiency, reduced noise, and effective moisture control. That means your home stays cooler in the Texas heat, quieter inside, and protected against humidity.

Large windows, smart design

One of the standout design elements at George is the use of large windows in every room. They flood your home with natural light, creating open and inviting spaces. Thanks to dual pane low-E glass, you get the brightness you want while keeping your home efficient year-round.

A smarter way to live

These details reflect what “Good Living by Design” truly means- homes that balance style, function, and sustainability. At George, you don’t have to choose between a light-filled space and an efficient one. You get both.

When you’re buying a new home, the little details often make the biggest difference. At George, we’ve taken a thoughtful approach to every finish, right down to the paint on the walls. Every home here is painted with low-VOC paints, a choice that’s as good for your health as it is for the planet.

What Are Low-VOC Paints?

VOC stands for volatile organic compounds. These are the chemicals commonly found in standard paints that can release harmful fumes into the air over time. High levels of VOCs not only affect indoor air quality but can also contribute to broader environmental pollution.

Low-VOC paints are designed to reduce those emissions significantly. The result? A cleaner, healthier home environment from the moment you move in.

Why It Matters for Daily Life

Choosing low-VOC paints isn’t just about checking the “eco-friendly” box — it has real benefits for the way you live every day:

• Better air quality inside your home
• A safer choice for families and pets
• Less impact on Austin’s environment
• Beautiful, durable finishes that still deliver the modern look George is known for.

From energy-efficient appliances to sustainable building practices, new homes at George was designed with conscious choices in mind. Low-VOC paints are just one example of how our homes are built for a healthier, more sustainable future — without sacrificing style.

How George Leads the Way

When choosing a new home, it’s important to consider features that not only offer comfort and convenience but also contribute to sustainability and long-term savings. At George, every residence is thoughtfully designed with this balance in mind, especially when it comes to water usage and energy efficiency.

One standout feature is the inclusion of tankless water heaters in all our new homes. Unlike traditional water heaters that constantly heat a large tank of water, tankless systems heat water only when you need it—on demand. This means you enjoy hot water instantly, without the wait, and you benefit from significant energy savings. With a tankless water heater, you’re not just getting convenience; you’re investing in a more efficient, eco-friendly system that reduces your utility bills.

But it doesn’t stop there. George homes are also equipped with Delta EPA WaterSense plumbing fixtures, including faucets and shower-heads that use at least 20% less water than the industry standard. These fixtures maintain excellent performance and style, all while helping conserve a precious resource. Lower water usage means lower bills and a smaller environmental footprint- something every homeowner can appreciate.

By integrating these smart water-saving technologies, George creates homes that prioritize both modern living and responsible resource management. These thoughtful features reflect our commitment to “Good Living by Design,” blending style, comfort, and sustainability seamlessly.

If you’re looking for a home that supports an efficient lifestyle without sacrificing quality or aesthetics, George is the place to be.

When it comes to buying a new home, there’s what you see- and then there’s what actually makes it a great place to live. At George, we design with both in mind. That’s why every home in our East Austin community comes standard with solar panels, owned outright and fully included in the purchase price. No lease. No loan. Just clean energy from day one.

But the sustainability story doesn’t stop at the roof. From spray foam insulation that locks in comfort to variable-speed air conditioning that adapts to your needs, each feature works together to keep your space energy-efficient and cost-effective year-round. Add in double-pane low-e windows that filter out the intense Texas sun, and you’ve got a home that stays cool without overworking your system- or your wallet.

These thoughtful choices don’t just support your lifestyle today- they make your home more valuable for tomorrow. Whether you’re looking to lower your utility bills, reduce your carbon footprint, or invest in a future-forward way of living, George makes it easy to feel good about where you live.
