Welcome to 700 Walnut Creek Rd. in Elizabethtown, Kentucky: a 5,000 sq. ft. home overlooking 22+acres and an extraordinary opportunity to own a stunning, energy-efficient home designed by well-known artist/sculptor Rich Griendling. This home really does offer the serenity of living in your own private paradise but is located only minutes away from all the amenities of a small city including medical facilities, shopping, dining, recreational and more. The acreage is an open meadow offering stunning views - especially sunsets. If you're looking for privacy, serenity, and a place to "work-at-home", this house is truly the one! Form meets function: With a total of 5 bedrooms (2 are ensuites), 4 total baths, 2 attached garages, the home is a dynamic living space that provides inspiration, warmth and tranquility from the moment you step through the door. Primary features include a light and airy open floor plan with 21' wood ceilings, 5" oak-trimmed baseboards throughout, a breathtaking double-helix oak spiral staircase, 41 oak-trimmed front windows and built-in oak cabinetry. The bank of windows provides abundant natural light and magnificent views of the private, 22-acre meadow. Timeless and innovative design elements in the bathrooms and kitchen, a fold-out pantry, plus an indoor fountain add to the home's unique features. The spiral staircase at the home's entrance leads to a 108' long loft area with oak library shelves, a game room and model train layout running the entire length of the loft space. Passive and active solar plus geothermal: The home's design is passive solar - the building materials, orientation and site harness the power of the sun to naturally heat and cool the space. The house also has a bank of active solar panels mounted on the rolled-steel roof, and geothermal heat pumps take advantage of the constant underground temperatures to efficiently exchange temperatures, heating the home in winter and cooling it in the summer. The total cost to heat and cool the 5,000 square foot home is under $20 a month.
