70 Evans Rd., Hermon, NY 13652

Off-grid independence has never felt as refined as it will on Evans Rd. in Hermon. Crafted by Erik Schultz in 2009, this four bedroom, one-and-a-half bath home offers tranquility and comfort tucked away on 134.6 acres of natural beauty. Large windows overlook breathtaking views and welcome plenty of natural light, bringing a sunshining gleam to the yellow birch flooring, staircase, and trim throughout.

The open concept downstairs allows warmth to flow from the wood range in the kitchen to the living room, aided by passive solar gain and wrapped in heavily insulated, custom built walls that curve into each of the many window frames. Upstairs, the main bedroom mimics the views of the living space and overlooks a sprawling meadow surrounded by forest.

A short walk down the nearby trail leads to a waterfall on Tanner Brook, which flows onto the property from Trout Lake and nurtures the diverse plants and wildlife who also call this property-and the hundreds of acres of surrounding state land-home. Explore the rest of the land from any of three lengthy road frontages, including close to a mile of road frontage on Evans Road itself.

While the property is off-grid, it also offers the comfort of modern amenities. The home has access to fiberoptic internet, keeping you connected. The massive two-story garage and multiple sheds can offer ample storage space. Large solar panels near the gardens feed electricity to the property, backed up by a propane Generac Eco Generator, all ready to keep you comfortable. Visit this piece of secluded paradise and see what off-grid living has to offer you.
