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.

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
