This exceptional property underwent a complete renovation just two years ago, including the addition of a stunning second floor to the main house. The upper level now boasts 2 spacious bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, along with a beautifully designed kitchen and elegant dyed and stained concrete floors. A massive sunroom floods the space with natural light, while in-floor radiant heat ensures comfort throughout the home. The house is thoughtfully wired for sound and passive solar energy, and is prepared for a backup generator, adding a layer of sustainability and security. The main floor is an entertainer's dream, featuring an indoor swim spa, sauna, gym, and a convenient half bath and a shower next to the sauna. A legally conforming 2-bedroom suite on this level offers 1 bathroom, in-suite laundry, and baseboard heating—perfect for rental income or extended family. The oversized heated garage with 12-foot ceilings is a car enthusiast’s delight, complemented by a second single attached garage. The property also includes irrigation in the front yard, raised garden beds in the back, and a refreshing outdoor plunge pool that's 4 feet deep—all set on a generous 1/3 acre lot. Timber frame construction and ICF block insulation help keep the house cool during the summer months, making this a truly unique and energy-efficient home.
