Tucked away on 6.26 serene acres, this custom-crafted retreat blends
warmth and elegance with passive solar design and construction. The
home's strategic design and construction combined materials and
orientation angles that work to harness solar heat during the winter and
minimize heat gain during the summer. The large brick chimney in the
center of the home adds style and function, holding heat in the winter
months. The interior tongue & groove ceilings and rich architectural detail
heighten the thoughtful design. The gourmet kitchen features granite
counters, stainless appliances, a butler's pantry, and breakfast bar perfect
for gathering. A wall of double pane windows enhances the solar capacity
of the home and fills the dining room, kitchen & rec/living room with light
and nature views, while the cozy family room and office with French doors
offer quiet comfort. Vaulted, beamed ceilings grace all bedrooms. The
secluded primary suite includes a separate sitting room and the spa-like
primary bath invites relaxation with a soaking tub. The main floor includes a
large utility room and walk-in root cellar. Detached 2-car garage with
covered walkway adds charm and convenience. Located minutes to the
Crossings, Rt 80 and all major attractions-yet it feels worlds away.
