New Leaf homeowners often tell us they chose to personalize a New Leaf home versus purchasing a pre-owned home because they want higher ceilings and lower utility bills. So, we created the Gold Standard to resolve these needs for homeowners.
Our Gold Standard takes your home to the next level with a curated collection of our most popular enhancements for energy efficiency and visual comfort.
Energy-efficient features like attic insulation and higher SEER HVAC units often pay for themselves in the long term through lower utility costs. Visually appealing luxuries such as 10’ ceilings and enhanced trim with solid core doors further ensure your comfort and please your senses.
