This one-of-a-kind timber-frame straw-bale home offers unmatched character, exceptional energy efficiency, and is now priced below assessed value. Thoughtfully designed and extensively upgraded, this remarkable residence delivers outstanding heat retention, year-round comfort, and impressively low operating costs, averaging just three cords of wood annually for heating. Features include a Blaze King wood stove with long burn times, hydronic in-floor heating on the main level, dual heat pumps for heating and cooling, premium tilt-turn Innotech windows and doors, an ICF concrete slab, reclaimed wood flooring, and 18-inch straw-bale walls that naturally regulate temperature. The stunning kitchen showcases a wood-fired Forno pizza oven, oversized eat-up island, and apron sink, while the spa-inspired main bathroom offers a 2025 tiled walk-in shower, bidet, and in-floor heat. Outdoors, enjoy a covered patio, veranda, solar-heated saltwater lap pool, newer fencing with custom metal caps, and durable metal-accented exterior finishes. Major updates include a 2018 roof and eavestroughs, 2019 Duradeck upper deck, 2024 heat pump, and sewer brought to the property with connection at the lot line. Potential exists for a future double garage with carriage house, buyer to verify. Built by the original owner with a passion for sustainable living, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly efficient, architecturally striking home unlike anything else on the market. (id:43014)
