Description: This wonderfully unique home was designed and built for the owner, by the owner, in 2022. The house is close to downtown but is privately nestled in a new neighborhood just off the beaten path. The beautiful rear porch is surrounded by professionally maintained gardens, a meadow view, and a lovely secluded rear lawn. The interior open-concept layout shows a U-shaped kitchen with a long center island at one end and the living room with huge windows to the gardens at the other. One-level living is hard to find and this is a perfect fit with an attached garage so no raindrops will ever fall on your head. The energy efficiency of this home is 5-Star +. This is a house of the future - all-electric, no fossil fuels, an impressive HERS rating, an induction range, a heat pump dryer, and a heat pump water heater. The energy usage for the calendar year 2023 totaled $1188. (with daytime thermostat at 69, nighttime at 66). The addition of a modestly sized photovoltaic roof system would bring the annual energy usage down to zero.
