This sprawling 3,732-square-foot ranch home has operated completely independent of the electrical grid for the past 20 years, utilizing a combination of solar power, solar thermal, wood, diesel, propane, & fiber optic internet. For buyers seeking additional convenience, utility power is available nearby, allowing the existing system to be converted into a hybrid grid-tied setup. Built with energy-efficient Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) construction, the home delivers exceptional durability and year-round comfort, staying warm in winter and naturally cool in summer. Hydronic radiant heat warms both the main level and the full unfinished basement through a combination of solar thermal panels and a wood-fired boiler, creating an efficient and comfortable living environment.

The property also offers abundant storage and workspace, with an oversized attached three-car garage and a large metal building housing the solar array, generator, and wood-fired boiler, and providing plenty of room for equipment, vehicles, and recreational gear. The expansive unfinished basement, complete with a partially finished safe room/root cellar, presents outstanding potential for additional living space, a workshop, or customized storage. While the current electrical, heating, and hot water systems have served the owners for two decades, some buyers may choose to expand the existing off-grid infrastructure or connect to utility power to create a hybrid system tailored to their lifestyle.
