Kitchen with a Wood Burning Stove
A wood stove makes for a warm and cosy space. This Vermont Castings wood stove is both top and side loading. The top loading option eliminates mess from the ash falling out when the side doors are opened and it can be loaded with more wood to burn. This wood stove is also designed for cooking on top and during winter most of the cooking is done on it. Because this property includes its own woods and has an endless supply of fire wood, this wood burning stove plays a large part in the energy efficiency of this home. This 3500 sf home has an average electric and gas bill of £30/mo each (2015)!
