Description

This home was designed by John Ringle of Jersey Devil Architects, renowned for being one of the first firms to spread the word about the concept of design/build. Jersey Devil Architects are also known for its innovative and energy-efficient structures. The house at 398 Grandview Rd is no exception. The entry leads to a cozy sitting area with beams on the ceiling giving a rustic feel. This leads into the double height living room with dramatic fireplace and dining room, with the beam theme continuing there too. The kitchen towards the rear of the home has a convenient breakfast bar for those early morning coffee drinkers. The open shelving adds storage but steals no light. The views from the window over the sink will make you want to wash the dishes! Just off the kitchen is the pantry and there is the mudroom too with access to the two car garage, coat closet and half bath. The large master bedroom on the second floor, has its own bath and walk in closet. The vaulted ceiling adds drama and the beams give it the rustic theme. There is a sitting area and door that leads to an alcove that connects with bedroom two. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor as well as a hall bath and laundry.

And there is a propane-powered generator for additional backup power. There are three strategically located wall air conditioners, one of which has a heat pump.The house being open plan has a great flow. All this means that electricity bills are remarkably low, under $10 in most months. The Land: The house is situated in 3 acres of land.
