Supplements
Along with a large great room, the 1828 SF main floor also features a laundry, complete with scrubbing washboard sink, room for side-by-side washer/dryer, and multiple storage cabinets. A guest bedroom and bath, hickory built-in cabinets and hutch, a Pacific Energy woodstove, and a mechanical closet, along with the primary bedroom are also located on the main floor. Detailed custom hickory cabinets were custom designed by the owner and all door casings and wood trim are redwood. Beveled-edged AGA appliances include the refrigerator, chilled wine station, dishwasher, and electric stove with multiple ovens that compliment the nice choice of granite counters. Multiple pull-outs make kitchen storage a breeze. A 1080 SF second level was permitted as storage, but was finished off as a loft, a private bedroom/rec area, more storage in a utility room (designed with a future closet in mind), and a large private office with a trap door--all sound-proofed. The utility room contains an efficient heat pump/water heater which is tied into the 3 separate heating/cooling zones. 2 Nests control 2 of the 3 thermostatically control zoned systems and the bathrooms are connected to every zone. The 2nd floor is zone 3 and is a separate zone completely insulated from the rest of the house with exterior second floor entry doors near the loft area. Zone 1 includes the general living area of the home and Zone 2 includes both main level bedrooms. Other features include internal internet wiring for each room, whole house audio speakers, video cable, and coax for satellite. The great room features a 7.1 internal speaker system specifically designed for it. Speakers are also located in ceilings of the outdoor patio & primary bedroom. A special vented and fan-cooled mechanical room houses wiring for irrigation, speakers, video transmission, phone and internet -- really for the whole house. This organized room was made so that the whole house could be internet based and controlled, including a controlled "Control 4" system for lighting, security, audio/video transmission. The house is wired for a 20KW whole house generator. The existing generator pad is located near the shop. The owned propane tank is currently serviced by Shasta Gas and is for the sole purpose of a generator's use. The shop has its own electrical panel. Top Hat Energy installed the solar system in 2011. The inverters and other solar equipment are protected in the shop, along side the water softener which has a 700-gallon backflush system using a salt filter. This has proven beneficial to the on-demand tankless pump system for the 60 gallon/minute well. J&J Pumps has maintained the system in the past. Well depth is about 160 feet. The location of the septic tank is noted by a raised "STORMDRAIN" lid on it. PG&E wiring is all underground. This home was originally designed by an energy consultant out of UCLA to mitigate the loss of energy using low-e windows, specific ducting in the crawl space, specific heating and air appliances, and natural light. The concrete rim and 800 SF of covered patio also help mitigate energy loss. Insurance is currently provided by Farmers for approximately $6200 per year. Brush rating is a #2. Full time Cal-Fire is just less than 8 miles away.
