Property Description
Tucked away at the end of a quiet lane, this secluded showplace celebrates one floor living with modern elegance and intelligent, energy efficient ,design. The owners transformed the original cottage into a 3,200 Sq.ft, Eco-friendly home in 2007-2008. Entering the home, the focal point is a dramatic, vaulted-ceiling great room featuring two ceiling fans, natural wood beams, numerous high hats, and a propane fireplace with flame patterned wood grain mantel. Flanking the fireplace, a bank of large triple-pane windows rest above low built-in bookcases, allowing you to appreciate the tranquil setting. His and Hers offices, one with cork flooring and a "Sun Tunnel", provides daytime natural lighting to minimize electricity usage. There are a total of five sun tunnels throughout the home. The kitchen includes high end appliances, limestone counter tops, decorative custom tile back splash, an expansive granite island with prep sink, custom wood cabinets, double stainless steel sink, double ovens and walk in pantry.There is a charming breakfast nook with a greenhouse window to enjoy the wooded vistas.The only remnant of the original dwelling is the dining room which features a stone walled, wood burning, fireplace with beamed ceiling, sparkling wood flooring and sliders to the rear patio . The raised slate patio provides a tranquil setting to view the scenic Huntingdon Creek. Here you are surrounded by wildflowers, perennial gardens,foundation plantings and woodland splendor.

Designed for extreme energy efficiency, three four-hundred foot geothermal exchange wells provide heating and cooling, dramatically reducing utility costs .The Pella windows throughout are low emissivity windows; many are triple pane and some have intra-pane blind inserts that allow both light and privacy.
