Winchester Home of the Week: 3 Emerson Road

Boasting bragging rights as the most efficient home in Winchester is as easy as purchasing this beautiful colonial on Emerson Rd. This brand new home was fabricated with state-of-the-art energy-efficient systems and has backed by its evaluation by HERS (Home Efficiency Rating Service provider) and the Winchester building department. A Five-Star rating falls within the 70-75 range (lower is better) and this home was ranked with an impressive rating of 47, earning it an notable Five-Star Plus rating. Oh, and the construction and architectural design is equally remarkable. Cost effective and beauty all in one convenient package!

With 4,000 square feet of living space distributed throughout three finished levels, this residence also offers the benefits of a very flexible and fluid floor plan with elevated ceilings and oversized windows drenching the rooms with natural sunlight. The first level consists of a 19 x 17 square foot sunken living room with a contemporary see-through fireplace flanked by two egresses and a coffered ceiling, a 14 x 16 square foot fireplaced formal dining area and a 16 x 15 square foot gourmet kitchen fully equipped with premier ingredients that include upgraded cabinetry, granite surfaces, including a center island with seating, walk-in storage and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances.

The second level hosts a large 20 x 15 square foot master suite with a walk-in closet and dressing room, two additional bedrooms with walk-in closets measuring 16 x 14 and 14 x 17 square feet and a convenient laundry area. The third story provides a magnificent multi-use 28 x 11 square foot sky-lit loft with bonus storage and attic access. The finished basement resourcefully utilized the generous footprint of this home with a 26 x 15 square foot playroom, a 13 x 11 square foot home office and a full bath.

Rarely does such a cost-effective residential opportunity present itself on today's real estate market and prospective homebuyers must seize this opening before it is too late. Renovating an existing home to comply to these high energy standards would be a difficult and expensive task as well as extremely cumbersome. Save time, energy, and most of all, money by purchasing this property that will not only accumulate valuable power expenses, but with its newly-built status, will provide years of maintenance free living.
