This lake front is one of the most
inspiring properties on Lake Hopatcong. It has been thoughtfully
re-engineered blending old world style craftsmanship, state of the
art technology, high quality materials and many Green building
practices. The current owners wanted to create a comfortable yet
efficient home for their family, and they have most certainly
accomplished that goal. When you first arrive at the property, you
immediately notice this is no ordinary home. The natural cedar
siding may catch your eyes first, but then you begin to notice some
of the other details that make this home stand out. The landscaping
is just right, and the paver walkway leads you to the gracious
entry. The custom door and hardware give you a hint that this is
something special, and as you step inside you realize the current
owners have created a masterpiece. If you enjoy cooking the designer
cherry kitchen will delight your fancy. If entertaining is on your
agenda, the elaborate wet bar, complete with wine refrigerator and
ice maker will remind you of your favorite club. When it’s time to
say good night a fabulous master suite is the perfect place to
unwind. And if you ever feel like not going to the office and want
to work from home, two home offices with complete networks will ease
your commute. A few of the Green features include computer
controlled lighting systems throughout, high-tech insulation,
radiant heat, ultra-high efficiency gas boiler and cork flooring.
The current owners completely gutted the home to install all new
heating, plumbing, cooling, electrical and media systems, and these
high tech systems combine to make for extremely low energy usage for
a home of this size. And speaking of energy, should a storm ever
knock out the power, an automatic start up, back up generator and
automatic transfer station keeps all of these systems operational.
This is only a brief description of the many extraordinary features
found in this high tech yet warm and inviting home. Call Chris
Edwards to schedule an appointment to see the rest of them. Chris
has been boating on Lake Hopatcong for more than fifty years and has
extensive knowledge of the lake and lake front real estate. You'll
be pleased with the results.
