Even the plumbing access and Takagi on-demand water heater are discreetly hidden behind a custom Murphy door.
Energy efficiency and major system upgrades make this home as practical as it is beautiful, including owned 6.4 KW solar, Lennox 5-ton heat pump system, blown-in insulation, updated electrical with multiple sub panels for added surge protection, PEX re-plumb, seamless gutters, and 50-year composition roofing on both the home and detached garage.
The detached 672 sq. ft. garage includes, additional storage in the large loft area, automatic openers and a rear drive-through garage door for added backyard access via a shared side easement road.
