Description

Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a Green Passive Solar house in the rolling farmlands of Kent County. Just 10 minutes from downtown historic Chestertown, this property is the best of worlds with the tranquility of the countryside and quick access to the cultured town. The downtown has some of the Eastern Shore's best shops, restaurants, art galleries, and theaters. This contemporary house was strategically designed and built in 2016 with energy efficiency and low environmental impact in mind. The open floor plan with smart opening skylights allows light to flood in through the glass south side of the house. Every living space opens up to the greenhouse allowing you to constantly feel connected to nature. Vaulted ceilings span the entire South side of the house including the 3 bedrooms, great room, office, and garage. There are two owner's suites each including vaulted ceilings, skylights, their own doors to the greenhouse, full bathroom and walk-in closet. The third bedroom also has a full bathroom just across the hall, doors out to the greenhouse, and tons of closet space. Right off the kitchen is a large pantry room with an extra freezer. The laundry room is spacious and has counter space, shelving, and grand sink with wash basin. The kitchen has stainless steel Bosch appliances and an induction stovetop. The mechanical room is fully finished and well organized. The huge 27'x16' workshop/studio is perfect for those who work from home and also could be easily converted to an income-generating apartment or guest space that already has its own entrance and is plumbed for a full bathroom. The entire south side of the house has a greenhouse which not only provides natural light but also helps heat the house in the winter, allows for year-round growing, and provides a way to constantly feel connected with the beautiful scenery. The North side of the home has an earth berm maintaining the environmentally conscious theme of the property. This provides stable temperatures year round, protects the house from the cold in the water, and helps with energy efficiency. The solar panels on the roof are owned and contribute more to the local energy grid than is consumed. The reimbursements and credits from this are greater than the $13 monthly charge for energy which is simply for a distribution charge meaning you make more than you pay for electricity. This great benefit keeps costs low in this state-of-the-art house. Radiant floor heating and on-demand hot water are just some of the other amazing amenities that come with this property. No details were spared with this green smart house. Live in luxury with modern features while helping out the environment and saving money on utilities in this one-of-a-kind find!!!
