Back on the market!!! Incredibly unique property on cul-de-sac with recent updates throughout--This is a contemporary-style passive solar genre "envelope home" architecturally designed to limit the need for excessive energy use relative to any central heating or air conditioning systems. It features a huge Southern facing solarium for passive heat that runs front to back (original owner utilized it as a greenhouse year round) with brand new custom skylights, multiple sliding glass doors, vaulted ceilings with beautiful natural wood beams, and energy-efficient ceiling fans for air flow. As with most contemporary designs, it has an open floorplan (and vaulted ceilings throughout) that flows organically from the recently remodeled kitchen (skylight, ceiling fan, custom cabinets with soft-close hinges, natural stone countertops, brand new stainless steel appliances, and pantry) into the signature great room with extra large ceiling fan and a wood stove corner-set on a beautiful natural stacked stone hearth. There are three cozy bedrooms with brand new carpet on the main level, all with vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans, and peaceful wooded views out every window. One of the bedrooms also features an en suite bathroom plus a private sliding glass door entry into the solarium. The lower level of the home is designed with flexibility in mind, with a full second kitchen area, living/dining/flex space, including a full bathroom. Excellent for use as a lockout apartment unit with separate entrance, convenient in-law suite, guest area, or home office suite. Laundry area is located on the lower level (owner also had former hookups on main level where pantry is currently), and there is also a large unfinished utility room with storage closet, plus level walk out egress into the backyard. Freshly painted interior, with new user-friendly luxury vinyl plank character wood designed flooring throughout, and new individually-controlled baseboard heaters in all common areas and bedrooms. All three bathrooms have been recently updated and refreshed, with new fixtures and cabinetry. Large driveway with private parking for six cars, side deck, set backing up to a wooded area. This intelligently-designed home sits in a private yet commuter-friendly location that you have to visit to appreciate!
