A special and unique feature of the property is the Glass Conservatory, a magnificent addition inspired by English architecture that includes a ceramic tile floor with radiant heat, two natural gas fireplaces with heatilator completely surrounded by glass windows. This room must be seen to be appreciated and is sure to be a cozy sanctuary for kids of all ages in the winter. A central vacuum system throughout the house provides additional convenience and efficiency. The hot water heating system consists of the primary heater and a preheater using geothermal energy to further reduce energy demand.
