What makes it Green:

The home and property are completely off the grid. There are no power, telephone poles, or neighbors in view. The home has 120 volt electricity supplied by solar panels that track the sun. A Zantrac inverter charges batteries and serves the home. There is a 4000 watt Lister Peter diesel generator for cloudy days and propane serves the kitchen, water heaters (20 40 gallon models), clothes dryer and refrigerator.

The home built on 2X6 frames is fully insulated and double pane windows offer excellent insulation. The home is heated by a Hearthstone wood stove and there is at least 10 years worth of cut and split firewood on the property. In addition there is a Monitor kerosene heater that quickly heats the "great room" of the home and burns about 1 gallon per 24 hours. The property has a year around spring and running creek. There is also a guest cottage and storage shed and building for the generator, inverter and batteries.

This is a "one of a kind" property and completely unique for anyone who appreciates being independent and living green.
