Smugglers’ Notch
Located off the Smugglers’ Notch Resort access road, this tastefully designed 3,350 sq. ft. modern farmhouse provides eco-friendly living at an affordable price point. The mixed-material exterior combines rust-patinated sheet steel with cement-clapboard siding to produce a striking effect. Inside, maple floors and open-riser stairway, green slate tiles, cherry cabinets, and black granite countertops create a warm, yet sleek look.
The four-bedroom, 3½ bath residence is sited to optimize solar gains and incorporates Passive House principles to meet Efficiency Vermont Certified: High Performance requirements. With the further addition of solar panels, the large south-facing shed roof will generate sufficient electric energy to achieve net-zero annual energy usage.
