Many improvements were done in 2010 including remodelling the kitchen with granite countertops, "full-tall" granite backsplashes and Stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, French-door cabinet-depth refrigerator and vented microwave oven. At the same time, we installed a 2-gallon electric point-of-use water heater for instant hot water for the kitchen sink and dishwasher. We installed 1600 sq ft of 3/4 inch tongue & groove sand-and-seal-in-place hickory hardwood floors, which were ordered from a mill in Arkansas. We also remodelled the master bath by updating the shower to a custom Onyx 9 ft- tall shower with a low entry threshold and a full glass door, rain soft shower head with handheld spray. Master bath includes a private water closet, jetted tub, and his & hers walk-in closets. Vanity boasts his and hers vanity bowls. Other recent improvements include updated fans in Living and Guest bedroom and new light fixture in the formal dining room. All bathroom vent fans are controlled by timer switches allowing you to set and forget. The home has a 3-car garage w/Ryobi Smart Garage Door Opener & Battery backup (in case the power goes out) on the main door and a 1/2 HP Liftmaster opener in the 3rd car garage. Both doors have keyless entry keypads. Other Smart-Home features include a Honeywell Programmable Smart Thermostat, variable-speed fan on the furnace and Vivint Security System with 2 cameras. (Smart features can be monitored and operated remotely using apps on your cellular smartphone). There is a gas fireplace in the living room. Other features include a privacy-fenced back yard and a full sprinkler system with Rainbird deluxe rain-sensing controller which knows when and how much it has rained and applies water accordingly. It has a Navien high-efficiency, tankless water heater and a Kinetico water softener for rain-soft water. All three toilets (two are dual-flush) are 1.8 gallons-per-flush and all are chair-height. The climate control (HVAC) system--updated in April, 2019--is an energy-saving Daiken Fit matched system consisting of a 96% efficient gas forced air natural gas furnace and 17 SEER central air conditioner. All windows have been replaced with high-efficiency Low-E glass and vinyl siding on 3 sides of the house was replaced with Continental Polymer installed over house wrap to prevent wind infiltration. The roof was replaced in 2013 using architectural style 30-year shingles. At the same time, all gutters, shutters and some screens were replaced. Some landscaping beds were re-done by Rost Landscaping in 2018. In September 2019, we added solar panels to the roof's west slope, which is not visible from the front of the home making it possible for us to generate over 95% of our own electric power* without detracting from the beauty of the home In the summer of 2017, we regraded and sodded the back yard to divert runoff from our neighbors, into our underground downspout system. At the same time, we broke out the patio and re-poured it so that it would slope away from the house. We also installed a pump under the patio to remove any residual water that might get under it during heavy rain. *Utility Bills Available.
