Sustainability, innovation, attainability.

These are some of Thurman’s core common sense values. When the opportunity arose to build in Austin’s premier sustainable community, that caught our attention.

Because Thurman Homes brings our homeowners closer to a lifestyle that makes their life better. These are some of the reasons we like Whisper Valley.

Why Whisper Valley?

Each Thurman home is built with extensive interior and exterior energy saving features.

The community has net zero energy capability and 1/3 is dedicated for parks, gardens, dog parks and more.

Sustainability

The entire community was developed with net zero energy capability from the onset. Their developers preprogrammed energy neutrality into the community years before the City of Austin adopted solar-ready guidelines. A community designed to reduce energy consumption and preserve natural areas ultimately helps you save money. Thurman Homes includes solar panels to help take your home from zero energy capable to net zero. You could actually produce as much (or more) energy than you use.

Innovation

Whisper Valley is known for pioneering geothermal infrastructure on a scale not yet seen in the United States. For an idea of what this means, check out their interview on Ask This Old House. Further, the developers were one of the early adopters of Google Fiber in the area, and had the insight to integrate fiber at the development phase. Every home is pre-outfitted. All the easier to have your smart home integrated with your smartphone. Every Thurman Home includes the tech hardware to get you there: NEST Doorbell, NEST Door lock, Google Hub, OnQ structured wiring, and Sense energy monitoring system.

But How Much

Whisper Valley’s development furnishes a range of lot sizes. From a design perspective, we opted for more than one lot size. This allows us to diversify our product offering - with a wider range of architecture and a wider range of home prices. We offer homes starting under Austin’s median home price, so homeownership can be possible despite skyrocketing costs. Not only in terms of upfront costs, but ongoing expenses. On average, Thurman Homes owners spend $600-$800 per year on household utilities. Because attainable also has to be maintainable.

Dog or Cat?

Okay, we’ll be upfront with you right off the bat. We’re dog people. You’ll likely find one of our four legged friends tagging along at a job site visit or photo-bombing a house photography shoot. This community has room for them to play, whether at one of the designated dog parks or on the interwoven trails.

For the Outdoorsy Type

With or without a pet, you can enjoy Whisper Valley’s natural areas. Fully one-third of WV’s acreage is dedicated for parks, trails, gardens, and greenbelts. Of course we wanted in. So we selected greenbelt lots. All of our 50’ homesites enjoy greenbelt frontage. So you don’t have to pick between location or amenity. How about both?
