High Performance Home

Staying on the cutting edge!  Progress continues on the home we are building with geothermal technology at Stratford Farms in the Town of Poughkeepsie.  The kitchen cabinets are in, the house is trimmed and we are ready to start the mechanical finishes.

The domestic hot water in this home is provided by a hybrid system installed to further save energy without sacrificing customer comfort. It consists of a holding tank that uses heat from the geothermal heat pump to heat the water to over 110 degrees. From there the water goes into an air-to-air heat pump hot water heater that brings the water up to the desired temperature. Both heat pump systems work in tandem, as needed, to keep utility bills as low as possible.

Geothermal is Green Building.  We are powering the heating and cooling systems without the use of traditional fuel oil or natural gas.  In simple terms, geothermal systems tap the stored energy in the earth to power the specially designed mechanical systems in the home. By starting with the heat energy stored in the ground, it takes less energy to heat or cool your home.   Less energy use equals lower energy bills.  Geothermal technology not only benefits our environment, it substantially reduces monthly energy bills and has major tax credits available to the home buyer.

Rieger Homes continually strives to include cutting edge energy saving technologies in our homes without sacrificing comfort, style or beauty.  We would like to thank Chris and the crew at Oil Free Energy Solutions LLC for making this a success!  Rieger Homes is your Dutchess County new home builder and Orange County new home builder of choice and have been a leading home builder in the Mid-Hudson Valley for over 50 years.  Contact us today about building the home of your dreams using the latest environmentally friendly and energy efficient technologies at Stratford Farms or another of Rieger Homes’ beautiful neighborhoods.

The Newton

Rieger Homes has something special to showcase on Homesite 194 at The Legends at Beekman Country Club, located in Hopewell Junction, NY.  Introducing “The Newton”, a 4 bedroom, 2 ½ bath colonial designed for today’s lifestyle.  A High Performance, Energy Efficient Home, built with energy saving technology; the Newton exemplifies luxurious living while keeping energy costs to a minimum. 

Spacious rooms on the first floor flow comfortably one to another.  The foyer, with gleaming hardwood floors, welcomes and invites you into the home.  Choose to enter the formal living room dressed with crown moulding that leads to the formal dining room.  Or, choose to enter the wonderful gourmet kitchen with wood cabinetry, center island and breakfast area that overlooks the large family room, warmed with a gas fireplace.  If quiet time is what you crave, enclose yourself in the private study located on the first floor or glide up the wooden staircase to the second floor.

The gracious double door entry master suite contains a private bath with soaking tub and separate shower, huge walk-in closet and spacious bedroom with volume ceiling.  A convenient second floor laundry eliminates carrying those laundry baskets up and down the stairs.  Three spacious additional bedrooms and full bath allows lots of room for the children, guests or even a second office.
