The building is ICF (insulated concrete forms) construction with a metal roof. You won’t be bogged down with any maintenance – the association takes care of everything including pest control.

ICF, also known as, insulated concrete forms is considered a high performance residential construction material. ICF is made by pouring concrete, reinforced with metal, between two layers of insulating foam. ICF is very energy efficient and very quiet, making it an ideal material to use in a condo. Benefits include strength, energy efficiency, sound absorption, fire protection, and air quality.
