Built for Today and Tomorrow

Ridgewood was designed with awareness for minimizing short- and long-term environmental impact. The site plan includes nearly 70 acres of conservation land transferred to the Falmouth Land Trust. The homes are arranged in small neighborhoods that share open space and minimize the pavement required for each drive.

Green from the Beginning

From the start, we've strived to minimize impact:

• Reusing and processing earth and fill materials onsite
• Setting aside the majority of acreage as conservation land with walking trails
• Situating homes in small neighborhood clusters

• GreenFiber Cocoon insulation with 85% recycled material and R-49 insulating value
