LABhaus and Go Modular are proud to announce its first project in New Jersey, scheduled for ground breaking in late summer.  The custom project is being built for a growing young family and serves as an excellent showcase for our ongoing efforts to provide the highest quality homes at the best value possible.

Built on a vacant lot in an established neighborhood, just steps from schools and shopping, the home will feature 2438 sq ft of above-grade interior space and two car parking.  The first floor is generously laid out to provide for family living.  The sun-drenched kitchen is dominated by an over-scaled island and shares rear patio access with the adjacent family room.  The living and dining room feature a double-height gallery and massive windows to take advantage of the rear greenbelt.  The first floor also features a full guest bath, a private office or guest room, a rear vestibule entrance, and multiple closets to keep order.  The second floor features the family bedrooms, including a generous master suite, a large windowed laundry room, and a gallery open to the living room below.  The full basement offers 1301 sq ft of space for future expansion as a play room and art studio.

The interior will feature the the full standard LABhaus fittings package including FSC-certified 6″ select white oak plank flooring, custom stair cases, custom rift-sawn white oak cabinetry with solid-surface counter tops, and Jenn Air floating glass appliances with induction cooking.   The bathrooms will feature Kohler stillness faucets, custom rift-sawn white oak cabinetry with under-mount sinks, white micro-crystal glass flooring, mosaic marble wet-bed showers, frameless glass shower doors, and honed marble accents.

Most impressively, the home will feature LABhaus’s industry-leading R40 engineered wall systems.  This, combined with the high-efficiency packaged heat pumps, preparation for on-site solar, and energy-star fixtures throughout should result in exceptional low energy consumption.

The total project is projected to cost under $150/ per sq foot including design fees, the foundation, and all construction. While LABhaus homes offer some of the highest grade finishes, fixtures, and construction available, this price is approximately 50-70% less than that of comparable homes on the market place and should serve to underline LABhaus and Go Moduar’s collective commitment to provide the most advanced luxury housing available at the best possible value.

The process is expected to be complete in the fall of this year and we will be publishing regular updates as the project progresses.

The LABhaus product line as sold through Go Modular begins at approximately $140/ft2 complete, and custom design fees start at just $5950.  Those interested in learning more should contact LABhaus directly using the inquiry form, below.
