This is a new (2007) triple-wide modular house, very well insulated with air source heat pump offering heating (propane) and air conditioning, although there are very few days when this is needed. There is also a very efficient Blaze King wood-burner which gets the whole house as warm as toast. Low-E glazing to the south and east windows adds further comfort. The house is clad in Olive Green hardiboard. Roof shingles with a 30 year warranty.
The Kitchen is open plan to dining and living areas, which also houses the Blaze King. Phone point. The kitchen (12’x12’) has a gas cooker, and outside there is a gas point for a barbecue. There is a further outdoor electric point.
Dining Area (13’x11’) has a built in buffet/ hutch
Living Area (26’x13’)
A media room(14’x13’) to the east side overlooks the lap-pool. Near the glazed front door there is a coat closet. There are covered porches to the north and south of the house, and decks take advantage of all four sides and 360 views. In addition the south terrace has lighting and electric socket.
The master bedroom (15’x17’) also offers a walk-in closet, a separate shelved closet, and en-suite bathroom with shower area, large linen closet, and a granite floor with underfloor heating. Phone point in the bedroom.
2nd Bedroom (13’x12’6”) also has a built-in closet.
3rd bedroom/ study (12’x 11’) is adjacent the main bathroom. Phone point, presently used as a study.
The whole house is presented in a well-decorated manner with light maple engineered flooring throughout apart from the bathroom and laundry areas.
The main bathroom also benefits from a solar tube and tiled floor.
The laundry room (8’9”x8’4”) benefits from a laundry sink, solar tube and a closet, and water softener. It opens through a fire door to the garage.
The double garage (21’x22’ deep) was added in 2008, above which is a large concealed deck that offers all-round views, accessed from the south garden.
The hall to the bath and bedroom areas has a large, shelved closet.
The drive from the road to the house skirts the north perimeter, the entire garden area is protected by fencing, and includes a small herb garden (40’ x 30’), a larger orchard area with cherry, apple and plum trees, other ornamental trees, and a small vineyard.
The swimming pool is 50ft long by 10 ft wide, built as a lap pool primarily for exercise. There is a spa that overflows into the pool, and the pump house for the pool is inside a cabana – 20ft x 12ft – a perfect area for storage, perhaps dining by the pool, or maybe even an extra bedroom. Solar panels built onto the cabana roof extend the swimming season.
Water is from a well, drilled in 2003, on the eastern side of the property, the well-house is inside the barn area for protection, and there is a contour-trench septic system for the house.
