**PLEASE READ DETAILED DESCRIPTION IN SUPPLEMENTS** This Edmond property is a rare find, combining extreme structural durability, top-tier energy efficiency, and peaceful natural surroundings on a private 3-acre lot. Built with Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF), the home boasts 8" thick concrete walls reinforced with #5 rebar and a continuous concrete pour to the top of the gables--designed to withstand F4.5 tornadoes. A walk-in steel-reinforced closet doubles as a high-level safe room for ultimate peace of mind.
Inside, the quality continues with solid maple cabinetry, mahogany doors, and 5/8" fire-code drywall. The geothermal HVAC system provides unmatched efficiency and quiet operation, contributing to a remarkably low average electric bill of ~$108/month. The home is canted 8deg east of true south for optimized solar gain, and foam-insulated rooflines and ICF walls help maintain indoor comfort while blocking wind, heat, and cold.
The property is surrounded by 80+ acres of tree farm and large tracts, offering privacy and year-round wildlife views--deer and turkey often stroll within feet of the home. Approximately 250 hardwoods (mostly white oak) fill the lot, complemented by other native trees and ornamentals. A seasonal pond draws wildlife and adds to the peaceful setting.
Other highlights include a fireproof steel outbuilding, hail-resistant roofing (2022), a water well producing rare soft, clean water (no softeners needed), and a conventional septic system with minimal maintenance. Located in a quiet Edmond area within the Memorial High, Central Middle, and Redbud Elementary school districts, this home offers unmatched construction quality, long-term cost savings, and serene rural living--just minutes from town.
