Home Details for 4637 Array Drive

Net-Zero Energy • Modernist Design • One-Level Living • Designed by Arielle Schechter, AIA • Built by NewPhire Building Company This brilliant one-level Modernist Net Zero Energy home at 4637 Array Drive was designed and built by Chapel Hill's celebrated dream team—Arielle Schechter, AIA, named one of Forbes 2025 ''200 Best Residential Architects in the US,'' and NewPhire Building Company, the Triangle's premier high-performance home builder. Together, their shared integrity, design precision, and sustainability expertise define the next generation of high-performance living in North Carolina. Spanning approximately 2,800 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this all-electric residence blends timeless architecture with advanced energy systems and environmentally responsible construction. Every design choice supports a healthier, more efficient lifestyle—from the home's air-sealed, super-insulated envelope and triple-pane high-performance windows to its rooftop solar photovoltaic array that generates more energy than the home consumes over a year. A battery-ready electrical system allows future energy storage integration, while the energy recovery ventilation (ERV) system ensures constant fresh air and interior comfort. Heating and cooling are provided by a variable-speed heat pump paired with a heat-pump water heater, minimizing energy waste and eliminating fossil fuel reliance. Interior features include an open modern layout, expansive glazing for natural daylight, and premium sustainable finishes selected for durability and indoor air quality. The kitchen design supports all-electric induction cooking and integrates energy-efficient appliances. Thoughtful architectural sightlines create a seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces, with shaded outdoor living areas positioned for solar orientation and seasonal comfort. Construction is underway, with completion anticipated in April 2026. The home's systems and structure meet or exceed current high-performance and green-building standards, targeting net-positive energy operation and a dramatically reduced carbon footprint. The combination of modernist aesthetics, enduring materials, and measurable sustainability makes this residence a benchmark example of 21st-century design in Chapel Hill. Located within Array, North Carolina's first neighborhood where all homes are net-zero energy, this community of architect-designed residences produces more energy than it uses. Array's commitment to responsible design and clean energy fosters a forward-thinking environment that aligns with today's values of performance, beauty, and sustainability.
