You can have it all! This is a meticulously maintained highly energy efficient home surrounded by nature. Rooms have been freshly painted, the hardwood floors are in prestine condition and the kitchen has beautiful cherry cabinets. The Weil-McLain boiler was newly installed in the Spring of 2017. Previously the home was heated solely with 4-6 cords of wood annually. The home is so well insulated and masterfully designed. The double pane Anderson windows were strategically placed to maximize on the passive solar. The roof design was crafted to reduce sun penetration in the summer in order to regulate the temperature to mock an air conditioned atmosphere. The solar panels are paid to full term and operate at a negative cost to the homeowner. The "Sunpower" unit in the basement measures the solar power and can be interfaced to your computer. The washer and dryer are energy star appliances. The energy star Navien on-demand hot water system averages 97% efficiency. There are air exchangers located in the home to reduce overly moist air. There's a wood stove in the sun room with a vent to the master bedroom with a second stove hookup in the kitchen. The walls are 6" thick with rigid foam board insulation. 20.5 acres of private woods. Close to the bustling village of Richmond renowned for its schools, restaurants, Cochran's ski area, hiking trails, monitor barn and local activities. 2.5 car garage and bonus room above.

New construction is nice but often uninspired and gives you a false sense of permanence without demonstrating it. The framing is cultivated softwood, (emphasis on "soft"), exterior sheathing is "pieces parts" wood (chipboard or OSB), interior walls are sheet rock (two layers of paper with plaster in between) and the exterior siding is vinyl (read plastic). While these materials, when assembled, can be called a house, the sum of these pathetic parts can hardly be called a home. Now give me a structure that was built in 1830!! By my math, this edifice is pushing 200 years old and still going strong. The backbone of this monument to Mom and Apple Pie is most likely a hand hewed Oak or Chestnut frame, sturdy plaster and lath interior walls, solid plank sheathing and old growth, quarter saw'n real wood clapboard siding. Now that is not just a house, it's a real home; where you grow and shelter your family, create a lifetime of memories, it's your sanctuary, your safety zone. It was there in 1830, it will be there for you and your family, and it will be there long after you are gone. Now that is permanence worth owning, loving and caring for. So what are you waiting for, make an appointment to see it and experience for yourself what a real home is before it's gone. Because when it is gone it will be unavailable for the next generation or so. Now that is a real home.
