TOTALLY OFF-GRID on Bay of Fundy Located on the Bay of Fundy, 25 minutes from downtown Kentville, is this one of a kind home surrounded by 25+ acres of forest. Custom built 15 years ago with a high level of fit and finish, and rustic charm, both inside and out. It offers 1,900 sf of finished living space spread over two levels. The main floor has a spacious mudroom entry with walk-in closet and half bath. Off the entry is the exceptional systems room. You’ll love the spacious well appointed kitchen with sweetheart wood cookstove. The central dining room can handle large gatherings or cozy dinners, and features a German KACHELOFEN wood fired mass heater that radiates heat through its two-story tower. Off the dining room is a screened-in porch. The 25 ft livingroom has windows on 3 sides. Upstairs is a large open foyer, two bedrooms, laundry room, sauna and spacious bathroom with custom glass shower. All the principal rooms have wide pine plank flooring with slate and ceramic in other areas. The house is built on an insulated concrete slab foundation with in-floor heating powered by a propane fired TAKAGI instant hot water heater. The house is off grid with electricity powered by PV solar panels. Solar energy is collected by two ground mounted PV solar panels. The solar energy is fed to 8-6 V Rolls storage batteries in the separate battery building. This provides 48 V DC power which is transmitted to the house through a XANTREX inverter, providing the standard 120/240 V, the same as received from conventional power lines. If there are times of prolonged cloudy days, the 6 kilowatt GENERAC propane generator will automatically start to charge the batteries. The house is completely wired the same as every conventional home. Just no monthly power bill! The property includes 25+ acres with long groomed laneway, diverse forest and unique ecosystem. It has direct frontage on the Bay of Fundy. A pathway leads you down to the beach. Included is a timber frame 1.5 story cottage
