If you appreciate the finest in quality construction and panoramic views that make every day a gift, then this home is for you.Situated on exclusive Mosher Hill above Clearwater Lake, this four bedroom, three bath contemporary home was meticulously designed for energy efficiency and low maintenance.
The term 'built like a battleship' was coined for this home.The framing is of the 'Larson Truss' configuration with 12-inch walls providing tremendous comfort and fuel economy in summer and winter. The many picture windows are appointed with 'Window Quilts' inset to keep your plants cozy on the coolest nights.The massive fieldstone fireplace not only provides an impressive focal point for the spacious living room but also acts as a heat-sink for additional stabilization and comfort.An air to air heat exchanger keeps preheated fresh air circulating for a healthy home.The energy systems were reviewed by renowned environmental engineer Wm. A. Lotz P.E. and load bearing systems were checked by Conrad Heeschen, an MIT graduate architect.Even the hot and cold water pipes in the walls were insulated to prevent sweating and to keep your temperatures at just the right level.The daylight basement has been partially finished as a recreation room and 'train room' with a large unfinished storage and utility area.Primary heating is provided by a two year old high quality oil furnace.The new owners of this remarkable home can heat with oil, electricity, or wood at their option.
The five (5) acre lot has a long gracefully curved approach and circular drive providing easy access for parking or entertaining.A well established 35 x 45 foot garden plot and home orchard can provide many hours of productive pleasure.A wide variety of other plantings to include flowering crabapples, hydrangea, azeleas, and rhododendron provide multi-season color.Some of these accent the 36 foot flagpole that proudly occupies the crest of the hill.
