Set pleasantly back from the road for peace and privacy, this thoughtfully constructed ICF bungalow blends comfort, energy efficiency and long-term durability with a touch of whimsy in its contemporary design. Recently enhanced with solar panels and a full-home generator, the home is poised for sustainable living in every season. The layout takes full advantage of the natural slope of the land, granting the lower level walkout access and generous southern exposure that fills both floors with light. Step outside to discover an outdoor retreat featuring a sparkling pool with wraparound deck, a serene pond and lovingly curated landscaping complete with gardens, fruit trees and a greenhouse that invites year-round growing. An extra-large detached workshop garage has been recently doubled in size, while the attached double garage ensures ample space for vehicles, tools, toys or even animals, thanks to flexible zoning that accommodates a range of lifestyle options. Inside, the home reveals warm hardwood flooring, distinctive angles and soaring 9ft ceilings that create a bright and inviting atmosphere, complemented by in-floor heating on the lower level, a cozy family room fireplace and an efficient heat pump. The main floor includes a convenient laundry room with direct access to the garage, while the primary suite and living room both open onto a covered balcony overlooking your private yard, perfect for morning coffees or evening stargazing. Two full baths on the main level, including an ensuite, plus a handy two-piece bath downstairs, provide convenience for family and guests. Storage enthusiasts will love the extensive lower-level space with easy walkout access, ideal for stacking firewood or tucking things away. With a paved drive, durable HardiPlank siding freshly painted, mature trees, vibrant gardens and a reputation as a birders haven, this is a home that celebrates nature and nurture alike. Dog lovers rejoice with two acres of invisible fencing already in place. (id:63267)
