Sharon House

Lynn Gaffney and her family enjoy weekends in this bright modern home – her interpretation of agricultural structures. The layout, finishes and systems show LGA’s commitment to sustainable design such as SIPs prefab construction (Structural Insulated Panels), radiant heating, abundant windows and natural light, polished concrete floors, bamboo floors, non-painted plaster walls, standing seam metal panels.
