Foam board will be placed between house wall <br />and siding to provide an insulation factor of R-4 to R-8 (determined by what thickness of <br />board can be used). The trim will remain white as it is currently and peak vents will be <br />replaced with vinyl vents that match the current design.

Conclusion <br />Our desire is to have a home that fits well within the existing neighborhood and conforms <br />more closely with the features of houses around it. We also want to provide our residents <br />with a home that is low maintenance and environmentally comfortable.. We want to provide <br />more living space for the family and for doing the kinds of entertaining often required of the <br />cathedral dean for the parish and diocese.
