Description
Nestled high in the foothills of the ancient Appalachian mountain range, amidst a budding community of homesteaders, this large off-grid home comes with all the amenities and conveniences of a city home while offering the tranquility of the country.
This property could be used as a family home, shared with family and friends, as a home-based business, organic restaurant, retreat, and/or used as a starting point for your own Ecovillage.
The main structure measures 2600 square feet (all measurements to be verified by the purchaser).
Built with energy-efficiency in mind, the building is oriented with its long axis to the south.
Super-insulated walls measuring a foot deep, filled with dense-packed blown cellulose.
Cement slab foundation on top a raised insulated gravel pad.
Embedded pex for the option of future in-ground radiant floor heating.
Black steel roof, allowing for easy shedding of winter snow.
Off-grid solar assembly consisting of 12 Hanwha panels, a Lithium battery bank, Samlex Evo-4024 inverter, and Midnite charge controller.
The battery bank consists of 4 25.6V, 200 AH lithium batteries, installed in 2023/2024.
The solar assembly is wired for back-up power by generator.
Note that there are NB power lines at foot of the driveway, for those who are interested in tying to the grid.
This home was built with solid wood only, no osb sheathing, with the goal of providing an environment that is free from the off-gassing that typically results from conventional construction practices. Solid wood siding, interior walls, flooring, interior doors, and custom-built cabinetry.
Open-concept kitchen-dining space that seats up to 24. Pioneer Princess wood cook-stove. Stainless steel kitchen sink and countertop.
The third floor consists of a 411 sqft yoga/meditation space.
Attached garage/workshop with cement floor.
Two woodsheds; one of which is attached to and accessible from the garage for easy winter access.
This listing also includes:
- A 480 sqft gathering-place/workshop/maker’s space/yoga studio. All solid wood construction with 33 windows.
- 32 raised-bed garden with soil prepared for this year’s planting season.
- A chicken coop with an enclosed and covered run.
- A rustic 100 sq ft clubhouse.
This property is within a 5-minute walk to the KAN (Knowlesville Art & Nature) community centre and forest school.
Imagine walking your land, growing your food, renting out your guest-rooms, serving organic food from your restaurant, or simply preserving the forest, as you breathe in the fresh air and recover from years of stressful city life :)
The $650K price tag includes 9.8 acres and other structures. This is below the current replacement value of the main house and the gathering-place, not including the chicken coop, the clubhouse and the 9.8 acres, which we calculate to be a minimum of $822,000. The current construction cost is an average of $300 sq ft.
Note: there is an additional 34 acres available at $15,000 per acre, not included in this property listing.
