This 7,000-square-foot Tudor home on five acres in South Easton has been extensively upgraded, including a "greening" that added solar panels and hot water storage, a pellet stove and blown-in insulation, which have substantially cut utility expenses.
Originally built for former Patriots defensive back Ronnie Lippett in 1988, the property has a football field-sized grass side yard — 95 yards long to be precise.
The current owners have made major upgrades since buying the home nine years ago.
The six-bedroom home has a brick exterior with Tudor stucco-style HardiePlank along the second floor, along with a 10-zone Buderus high-efficiency boiler. Two years ago they added eight solar roof panels and two solar hot water storage tanks.
This year they installed Croatian marble with embedded seashell fossils in the entry foyer, redid the roof and refinished hardwood floors throughout the house.
The double-height family room, with a pellet stove set inside a Tennessee marble rear wall, has been opened up on both sides. An adjacent kitchen redone in 2004 has oak cabinets and high-end appliances. Off the kitchen is a formal dining room with paneled wainscoting and crown molding redone in 2005 and a newly recarpeted living room with a marble fireplace.
Behind the kitchen sits a sunroom built in 2000 with windows, skylights and glass doors leading out to an in-ground heated pool with an outdoor shower built in 2001.
There's even a bedroom suite on the first floor with a redone bathroom, but it pales in comparison to the second floor master bedroom suite. This large space has oak flooring with a quartz fireplace, Bose surround-sound, four large closets and a master bathroom redone in 2005 with slate floors, a walk-in shower and granite-topped vanities with custom cherry cabinetry.
The signature space on the second floor is a large game room with a built-in granite bar, an electric fireplace and an iron spiral staircase down to the backyard.
The 1,900-square-foot basement, finished in the 1990s, has a full kitchen, full bathroom, bedroom, living and exercise rooms, making it ideal for an au pair or in-law suite, but it could use some freshening.
There's an attached three-car garage, and the current owners just added a 30-kilowatt generator and propane tanks that can power the entire home for two weeks.
