Property Description
This one is Different!! 5+ Beautiful Acres of landscaped and wooded land bordering the Unami Creek. You need to actually see it to appreciate how beautiful it is. It is a private, rural road, but near Quakertown Shopping and Restaurants. Close to the Quakertown Exit of the Turnpike. Slightly more than 1 mile from Fox Hollow Golf Club. This home is very different from any other you have ever seen. It is a Passive Solar Heat Home with a full solarium-2 story Sun Room on the South wall with vents at the top, taking the sun-heated air into a "Double" Roof which carries the rising heat down through a gap between the double roofs to the double wall on the North side of the home and down through a 12" gap, into the basement, and back to the solarium with a vented floor to complete the circulation of natural heat around the home. The East and West walls are extra thick with extra insulation to help hold the heat. There is a cast iron, wood-burning stove in the Living Room that contributes to the whole home heat. There is also a smaller, supplemental Propane heater to add more warmth to the home. The first floor has a large Living Room with a sliding door to the Solarium, and Dining area, a Kitchen, and a full bath with a Laundry Room, Access to the Basement, and stairs to the 2nd floor which has 3 Bedrooms and a full bath. The Primary Bedroom has a large walk-in closet and a sliding door to a balcony overlooking the Solarium. There is a full, very dry Basement (where the passive heat passes through) with a full, new water conditioning system, shelving, and plenty of storage room. There is an oversized garage with a large area with a workbench with overhead storage, a sink, and lots of shelving for storage. This is NOT your typical Home! The owners never bought ANY heat until a few years ago when the small propane heater was installed. If the new owner wanted to live "Off the Grid" and still be near everything, they could put up solar panels and not have to buy electricity! There is a large deck with a large retractable sun awning outside of the Solarium with a terrific view of the Beautiful Grounds. The former owners were Plant People and planted MANY beautiful trees etc., including Redwood trees! Included in the sale are a Wood Shed and 2 Tool sheds, a John Deer Tractor with a hauling cart, Snow Blower, and Log Splitter. Yes, this one IS Different! A Must See! See Documents for a picture of property lines and a visual of Passive Solar Heating.
