Sustainable Country Living on 30 Scenic Acres Welcome to Breezy, a beautifully designed, energy-efficient, Cape Cod-style home set on 30 acres of rolling meadows and quiet woods. This 3-bedroom, 3 bathroom retreat combines rustic charm with modern sustainability, offering comfort, efficiency, and space to live, work, and explore. Inside, large south-facing windows fill the home with natural light and passive solar warmth. Radiant in-floor geothermal heating and a stunning masonry fireplace in the two-story living room provide warmth without relying on fossil fuels. The open-concept layout connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Upstairs, a balcony and spacious bedrooms feature reclaimed Douglas fir floors, a gorgeous, airy, third floor library/office, and thoughtful, eco-friendly details throughout. Outdoors, equestrians and hobbyists will love the 40' x 108' pole barn with four horse stalls, a wash stall, and a climate-controlled workshop. A 70' x 110' lighted indoor riding arena adds year-round versatility. Trails, meadows, and woods invite hiking, gardening, and wildlife watching, with sand hill cranes, pheasants, and wild turkeys wandering the grounds. Breezy’s green technology includes solar panels, a wind generator, and geothermal heating and cooling, making it largely self-sufficient. Additional features like LED lighting, wiring for off peak EV charging, high-performance insulation, and fresh-air systems keep operating costs low and comfort high. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a working hobby farm, or a sustainable lifestyle, Breezy offers it all—with privacy, beauty, and purpose. Experience Breezy—where country comfort meets modern sustainability, and every day feels like a breath of fresh air.
