Looking for a home that's exceptionally efficient when it comes to your power bill? This property was designed with energy efficiency in mind. The current sellers have experienced many months where their electricity bill has been $0, thanks to the impressive solar panel system installed on both the home and the garage. While future utility costs will always depend on individual usage and utility rates, the sellers' experience speaks to the remarkable efficiency this home has offered. This meticulously maintained home features 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a fully developed floor plan, complete with a newer detached garage. Step inside to warm dark wood-toned flooring and a bright east-facing living room that offers plenty of space for a single individual, growing family, or those looking to enjoy retirement.

The insulated, heated garage—built in 2018—is equipped with both propane and electric heat and offers convenient drive-through alley access. An oversized shed provides even more storage and functionality. Both the home and garage are finished with durable Mitten siding, while the home is protected by a long-lasting metal roof.
