Property Description
This 2137 sf beautiful home with spectacular views of Palomar Mountain is one of 60 permitted straw bale homes in San Diego County. House was declared a Certified Green House by County due to energy efficiency features when permitted in 2003. Construction is post and beam with metal Hardy Frames and earthquake strapping. The design was certified by a structural engineer, and approved and permitted by San Diego County. Straw bales are used for insulation and are not a structural component. As well as being very quiet, straw bale insulation is very fire resistant and has an insulating value of R-30 or higher. Non-bale walls (those containing plumbing) are insulated with recycled cotton denim insulation that has been treated for fire and insect resistance. The house takes advantage of passive solar with a north/south orientation and extra deep eaves for warmth in winter and cooling in summer and to take advantage on the existing west to east onshore breeze. An efficient Carrier Performance series 5 Heat Pump System, air handler with MERV filter, and Nest smart thermostat was installed in 2023 and provides both heating and cooling. It is augmented by an ultra quiet whole house fan which provides energy efficient cooling when air conditioning is not required. A new extra long Kohler
