The land is 17.69 acres of former apple orchard; contains rolling meadows and the old apple trees. Great open area for horses. Wildlife abounds!

Land is subdividable per the town of Cornwall. Minutes to Middlebury, easy drive to Burlington or Rutland.

Home was built to be as energy-efficient and as healthy as possible, and recently earned a 5 Star Plus Energy rating from Efficiency Vermont. ICF construction inherently creates an extremely well-insulated home. Closed-cell polyurethane was blown in above the ceiling. Marvin Infinity windows, which are energy-star rated, were used throughout the house, and even in the garage.

House has a Buderus 94% efficient propane furnace, and a Buderus solar hot-water heater (no solar panels at this time). Buderus wall-panels are used to efficiently heat the space by hydronics. There are three main zones, but each panel has its own adjustment capability.

Roof is an Englert "cool roof", helping to keep the house cool in the summer. All rooms (except bathrooms) have ceiling fans.

Walls are insulated with cotton insulation for sound and insulation. Floors are wool carpets, bamboo, and tile (all great for people with allergies). No-VOC paints used almost everywhere in the house.
