Nestled in the Adirondack foothills in upstate NY, is this beautiful, custom built timber frame home, energy efficient and with a spectacular view of the valley and surrounding mountains. Sit on the deck and watch a sunset such as you haven't seen before. Spend a quiet early morning having coffee on the large porch and watch the birds at play.

It is one of the most energy efficient homes you can build.The very roomy and dry walkout basement has 10 inch poured concrete walls, and a high ceiling. There is radiant heat in the floor. There is a new hot water heater and a propane furnace that does not have many hours on it as we heat mostly with wood. There is plumbing in the basement that can provide another bathroom and there is a lot of room to add a bedroom or family-flex room. Room for a workshop or office. This home has an spacious open floor plan with an abundance of natural light so you can be in the kitchen and still be with the family in the dining and living room. Great for entertaining. The kitchen cabinets are hickory. The large windows provide passive solar heat. The wood stove heats the entire living space. The open stairway leads to a loft bedroom with full bath and plenty of storage space. There is an Amish built post and beam barn with 3 stories providing room for storage, a shop or even animals. There are solar panels mounted on the barn roof. Our electric bill is $17.35 monthly in the winter and $0.00 the rest of the year. There is plenty of open, grassy land if you wish to have animals.
