I need solutions for the batteries and modules as well as inverters and controllers that will go into this demo project. It will be completely off grid since the house is off grid. I need all the abc steps to setting up this energy solution for my cottage

There are other vendors as well, with links on the site listed.
Your power demands are not great, at all, so you can probably buy a whole system that costs less than USD10,000.

Going off grid means a little extra cost. From just what you have listed you are going to have to have at the low end 1500 watts in solar modules and about 18 killawatts in batteries.
Check out this page. It will get you started with images and how to pages.

Maybe the link below will get you started.
I new a guy once that built one of the 1st north GA solar cabins. Unfortunately I can't seem to find his email at the moment. He even had a cellular alarm system and a electric fence for the garden.

An average single-family home usually requires about a system for about 3KW power. If yours is smaller you can reduce that a little, but not much. Keep in mind that a washer, or a dishwasher can use about 2KW on its own when running...
