Come for the striking contemporary architecture, Scandinavian-vibe kitchen, built-ins, plenty of nooks for books or zooming, metal roof, central air, and three heated garage bays. Stay for the two-story passive solar atrium, the efficient glassed-in wood fireplace insert with combustion air intake/exhaust flue, 40 solar photovoltaic panels that reduce the cost of electricity to almost nothing, and two Tesla Powerwall batteries for back-up power. Come for the peaceful just-off-beach neighborhood of Blue Point, situated 1.5 miles along the sidewalk to 7-mile-long Grand Beach. Stay for the fresh caught off the boat fish at Pine Point harbor, happy hours and lobster dinners at on-the-boardwalk eateries, and proximity to schools, shopping, and transportation. Come for the private back yard, resplendent with established, low maintenance, organic gardens of herbs, beneficial wildflowers, perennials, shrubs and trees, and a huge shed for all the toys and tools. Stay for the bath remodeling, high performance replacement windows, and energy and air quality improvements done by premier builders Taggart Construction.
