Here is a home for the most devoted green pioneers. Torn down to the studs and rebuilt with ultra high-end construction and sustainable building practices. 28 solar panels and 120 solar tubes capture and create energy for unrivaled utility independence. The panels bank energy to provide for nearly all electrical needs, including the built in Tesla charger. The solar tubes heat a 970 gallon tank that provides all hot water and provides all heat as it circulates through a forced air system. Fully disconnected from all propane. No longer reliant on the hassles of propane and potential fill up disruptions during winter storms or the maintenance of keeping the unsightly outdoor tank cleared. Featured on the Green Building Tour multiple times. No expense spared, top end artisanship by Galleto Construction to compose this craftsmen style home. Inquire for the expanded list of green features and fine construction details. All this while being perched above the crystal blue waters of Rubicon Bay. Enjoy lake views form nearly every room in the house. The utility lines have been buried for an unobstructed view. Take in the amazing sun exposure from one of the decks or the outdoor space above the garage. The location also features access to Rubicon Homeowner's Association, with stunning sandy beaches, clear blue waters and pier/buoy access. The cost and time have already been invested for you. Now you can enjoy the benefits and perpetual savings of high quality construction, infrastructure and green energy initiatives. A home that is setting the bar in the quest to be environmentally conscious.

What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?

28 Solar Panels
5.2kw+/- system. Significantly larger than standard solar systems. This

powers the entire home and Tesla Charger. Inter-tie system that sends power to the grid and is banked for use. Low winter maintenance. It has a system to run warm water through copper pipes to remove snow on panels if needed, though the panels naturally sluff and the seller has never needed to use that feature. Entire system is owned, not leased.

120 Solar Tubes
The sunlight heats copper tubing that runs through the home and is stored in

the basement in a 970 gallon tank. This is naturally kept at 135 degrees +/- and provides all hot water for the home. This also circulates through the forced air heater to provide all heat to the home. Entire system is owned, not leased.
