Property Description
906 Wade Avenue represents a different approach to modern living - one in which exceptional design, everyday comfort, energy efficiency, and environmental responsibility work together. Completely transformed from its original 1943 Cape Cod design, this distinctive residence has been reimagined as a high-performance, all-electric home created to be as thoughtful behind the walls as it is beautiful within them.
The main residence offers four bedrooms and three full baths, with abundant natural light, warm wood detailing, carefully selected finishes, and a level of craftsmanship evident throughout. But what makes this home especially compelling is the planning and technology incorporated into its design.
The architecture itself plays an important role. The home's roof was redesigned with a custom saltbox profile, providing an expanded south/southwest-facing roof surface specifically suited for solar production. The standing-seam metal roof, installed in 2025, offers exceptional durability.
Energy-conscious construction extends throughout the home. Exterior walls utilize 2x6 framing, insulation conforms to the 2021 Energy Code, and Pella Lifestyle Series windows were selected with both efficiency and connection to the outdoors in mind. Conditioned attic space further contributes to the home's high-performance envelope and helps reduce energy loss and operating demand.
Comfort is equally intentional. Two variable-speed Mitsubishi heat-pump systems serve the main residence, providing zoned heating and cooling and greater flexibility across different areas of the home. A separate mini-split serves the detached studio. By decentralizing the home's heating and cooling systems, the design provides greater temperature control as well as an added measure of resilience should one system require service.
Every bathroom features electric radiant heat beneath the tile floors—a particularly welcome detail on cold winter mornings. The all-electric kitchen offers induction cooking and convection baking, and the property operates without natural gas or heating oil, supporting its forward-looking, all-electric design.
The versatility continues with the detached studio and full bath, offering convenient access to the main residence and peaceful views of the garden and surrounding greenery. Its separate mini-split HVAC system and on-demand electric water heater allow the space to operate efficiently and independently when needed. With plumbing already incorporated to accommodate additional functionality, the studio offers exciting possibilities for guest accommodations, multigenerational living, a private office or creative space, or potential auxiliary living use, subject to applicable approvals and requirements.
The outdoor setting is equally special. The generous lot backs to parkland, creating a natural backdrop and an enhanced sense of openness and privacy. The terraced backyard offers multiple areas for gathering, dining, relaxing and entertaining, extending the home's living spaces outdoors and taking full advantage of its beautiful setting. A handsome paver driveway accommodates multiple vehicles and was thoughtfully engineered to promote efficient drainage.
At its core, 906 Wade Avenue reflects the idea that sustainability is about far more than solar panels. It is about designing a home as an integrated system—considering how it is insulated, heated, cooled and powered, how comfortably it lives, and how efficiently it can perform over time.
The result is a home designed not only for the way we live today, but with an eye toward tomorrow: beautiful, comfortable, flexible, energy-conscious and resilient. 906 Wade Avenue is a truly distinctive home offering where thoughtful architecture, craftsmanship, technology, sustainability and an exceptional natural setting come together in one remarkable property.
