Originally built as a passive solar house, 32 solar panels have since been added to the roof to make this home truly run on the sun! Enjoy minimal electric bills while everyone else is complaining about their ever-increasing ones! Custom built by the current owners, this contemporary home sits on 7.7 acres of perennial gardens, blueberry bushes, rolling lawns, stone walls & woods too. Quality craftsmanship & attention to detail can be found in every corner of this property. The living room has soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, a fireplace & 2 sets of sliders which lead to the deck. The den is warm & welcoming with its natural woodwork & beamed ceiling. The kitchen is light & bright w/an abundance of maple cabinets, custom pantry & tiled floor - it is open to the dining room which has 2 more sets of sliders, one to the deck & one to the screened porch (the only room you will use all summer long!) An updated 3/4 bath & a tiled mudroom/laundry room/walk-in pantry complete the 1st floor. Upstairs you will find the primary bedroom w/matching walk-in closets, a full bath, 2 more bedrooms plus an open loft overlooking the living room below. Off the 3 car attached & heated garage (w/storage above!) is a barn that has in the past housed a horse - with a little work this barn would easily accommodate your livestock - a true homestead! The unfinished lower level offers more space, plus a cold cellar! Central A/C, wired for generator. The list goes on... a very special home!
