Experience thoughtfully designed, high-performance living in this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in the desirable Duke Street Cottages community. Built with foam-core panel walls and roof construction rather than traditional hollow-stud framing, and set over an unvented, encapsulated crawl space, this home was blower-door tested by an independent rater and features Pearl Platinum certification for exceptional efficiency and performance. Two independent ductless mini-split zones provide efficient heating and cooling, while a heat pump water heater and induction range add to the home's energy-conscious design. The primary heat pump ranks in the top 1% of North Carolina's electric-heated homes, and the water heater in the top 1% of NC homes. Fresh, filtered outdoor air is mechanically brought into the home rather than relying on air leakage around windows, creating a more controlled and comfortable indoor environment. Inside, you'll find granite countertops and a full ENERGY STAR appliance suite, all conveying with the home. The tile shower includes built-in Bluetooth audio for an extra touch of modern convenience. The guest bedroom offers more functionality than its size suggests, featuring a sliding barn door and a telescoping ladder leading to a fully floored attic that functions much like a bonus room. Outside, an oversized front porch overlooks the shared green space of Duke Street Cottages, creating a welcoming spot to relax and enjoy the neighborhood setting. Sidewalks connect directly to downtown Granite Falls, putting local shops, dining, and community amenities within easy reach. This is a distinctive home that combines thoughtful design, exceptional efficiency, and comfortable low-maintenance living.
