Property Description
The thoughtful design makes this home “live” much bigger than what one would expect from the photos and its stated square footage. Open floorpan throughout but still feels cozy with the wood beams, warm cabinetry, and various living areas and flex space to cater to changing needs. Built-in sound system throughout the house. Primary bedroom and laundry on main floor, designed for retirement.
Enjoy virtually “free heat” via radiant floor heating throughout is served by solar thermal panels that provide all of the heat and hot water for the house. Complete with (2) 90-gal. storage tanks for hot water, you will never run out. So much so, that the hot water overflow goes to the entire basement floor, keeping that level dry in the summer and warm in the winter. This makes it very comfortable for anyone working on hobbies or projects year-round. There is also a 500 gal propane tank and boiler as a backup for the heat, fireplaces, stovetop and grill connection on the deck.
This home has solar photovoltaic (PV) panels that provide electricity, as well as a brand new Tesla PW3 battery (with 13.6KWH capacity) that powers the emergency panel, (which is charged by the grid when the utility power is on, and the solar PV system when it is off.) 4 electrical panels in the house w/ one serving as an “emergency” panel that is connected to the battery (running the controls to the house, some lights, some items in the kitchen, and the home theatre.) Most of the lighting is LED downlighting with remote power supplies in 3 discrete locations.
This net-zero home is complete with an electric vehicle charger in the garage, making it virtually free to travel to/from your mountain retreat.
The home is operated by a Control 4 operating system, that can easily monitor and control many systems remotely via an app on your phone, or the tablet in the kitchen. It can monitor, control, and design lighting and heating preferences, access the security system and cameras, door locks, music, TVs, home theatre, etc.
Spacious kitchen has lots of workspace, ample cabinetry, large island, and a walk-in pantry, w/ an excellent work flow to handle multiple chefs cooking in the kitchen at the same time. Living area boasts vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace and overlooks to the lake. The screened-in porch also has vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplace (w/ a gas starter) with views of amazing sunrises, and wildlife grazing along the dam and creek. The basement level has a large home theatre with a 4k projector, incredible sound system, tiered platforms for seating, and 8 powered reclining chairs. Over-sized, heated 2-car garage, 2nd refrigerator, and workshop area, mechanical room, and extra storage closets.
At the center of the Sweetgrass community is a 22-acre private lake, suitable for canoeing, kayaking, swimming or fishing. It has approximately 3 miles of maintained hiking trails, making it a great place to walk dogs or get in a quick hike with friends without having to get in the car. There is access to trout-stoked Boone Fork Creek, and a community clubhouse with a fitness centers, gathering space, etc.
House is move-in ready, and being sold fully furnished.
