Property Description
Stunningly wooded and completely private 48-acre oasis with off-grid opportunities in place. 4-bedroom, 2½-bath home near Stockton Lake is set back from the street and offers complete privacy, with working acreage in the front and woods in the back. The home is a solar envelope with double ceiling and double walls on the north and south, allowing interior circulation around the living area to maximize energy efficiency. As air circulates under the home, the earth acts as a thermal bank to cool in summer, similar to geothermal and passive solar principles. The home includes a solar electric system and a backup generator. The entire right side of the property is a two-story greenhouse/solarium with magnificent views of the woods and wildlife. HVAC is all heat pump, and for cold winters the home has a free-standing wood-burning stove plumbed from the basement. The kitchen is a chef and entertainer's delight with solid surface countertops, stone backsplash, and abundant stained cabinets. The main-floor master offers generous space, excellent closet space, and a luxury master bath with his-and-her vanities with granite tops, separate jacuzzi tub and shower. The basement has three large bedrooms sharing a huge hall bath, living/rec room, bar, and access to a large patio. This home offers affordable, green living without sacrificing comfort or function. A 3-bay building/garage fits a camper and has electrical hookups, plus shop and storage space suitable for tinkering or an on-site business.
