Perched on a south-facing hillside near a brook, the main residence is an award-winning, net-zero+ Certified Passive House which has won awards for its creative design, energy efficiency, and green construction. Grid-connected solar arrays with battery backup power the heating, hot water, appliances, and EVs. Triple-pane windows, MERV-13 air filtration, R-60 walls, R-80 roof, and air-sealed construction.

The second-floor gallery overlooks the living area and can serve as a guest room, studio, and office. Second Structure: A 22’ enclosed porch connects to a 40'x40' high-performance timberframe structure with live-edge cherry braces (empty but for electrical & plumbing stubs), and triple-pane windows.
