This home features 19 solar panels mounted on the garage roof, for 100% solar power. The electricity is connected to the grid, and the monthly bill includes only the delivery charge of about $16. A Harman pellet stove in the dining area is sufficient to heat the house in a sustainable way. The kerosene furnace heats the house through baseboard hot water heat. The house is well designed, full of light and beautiful views across the lawn to the peaceful wetland across the road, and the woods to the back. The vaulted living room ceiling and skylights give a sense of spaciousness. The house is situated at the middle of a 2 acre property, set well back from the road. The downstairs floors are oak, and the upstairs floors and mud room are local ash. The full basement includes a large cedar closet. Located near the town line, the house is in the Potsdam school district but is a short bike ride to Canton. The property includes a screened house in the trees, complete with a wood stove. It's a perfect summer dining room and a cool summer sleeping spot. The spacious 2 car garage includes a dog door to a chain-link enclosure at the rear. This area could be used for a deer-free garden. An additional one car garage provides parking for a 3rd car. The house includes some safety extras like a portable generator and direct hook up to the house, and a spare sump pump.
