LVS Homes is a company which utilizes progressive building techniques to provide homes which are not only energy efficient, but are environmentally conscious and provide a healthier living space for home owners.

The Stouffers then decided to focus on energy efficient, earth friendly homes. Four years ago, they moved to Dahlonega and began building in Fern Park, a conservation community in Lumpkin County. The company’s homes are now being marketed by Vicki Stouffer, who is a Realtor with Exit Four Seasons Realty. More information about LVS Homes can be found at www.lvshomes.com.
