This unique property located in the town of Northeast the village of Millerton was given New York State Energy Star status in 2005 with 60% less energy usage than the average home. Three well proportion bedrooms and two full bathrooms, one with a Jacuzzi and shower. The family gathering space combines an open flow from the kitchen to the dining and living room areas. A major highlight of living in the roundhouse is how energy efficient it is. When a cold wind blows, it just blows around. The baseboard hot-water boiler averages just 500 gallons of heating fuel a year (2 fill ups of your tank). The home layout was also designed to maximize the southern exposure using passive solar heating to warm up the main living area. Plus, every room has cathedral ceilings to keep it cool in the summer. The rating helped with rebates to install a Solar Panel array to produce 100%+ of the energy needs. In fact, they have been getting a check back from the electric company every year! Since the Solar Panel system was installed in 2005, they have produced 65 Mega Watts of clean energy. Enjoy views of the Taconic hills from your wrap around deck.  Close to the Harlem Valley Rail Trail, The Movie House, Catamount Ski Area,  Butternut Ski Area, and Hotchkiss Private School.  Only 20 minutes to metro north or a 2-hour drive to NY City.
