The distinctive geodesic design offers a one-of-a-kind living experience with soaring ceilings, abundant natural light from skylights, and artistic interior finishes that seamlessly blend architecture with the surrounding forest.
The unconventional shape and layout of a geodesic home may limit the pool of potential buyers and can occasionally present challenges with traditional financing or appraisals compared to standard residential designs.
The unique structural angles and numerous skylights inherent to this design can require more specialized and potentially more expensive long-term maintenance and repair work than a traditional home.
WHERE ART, ARCHITECTURE & NATURE MEET! This distinctive geodesic home is shaped by Light, Forest Views, and creativity. Walls of Windows and Skylights bring the outdoors in, while unique angles, hand-painted tile, Spanish-inspired accents, moody paint palettes, and a blend of refurbished and found pieces create spaces rich in character. Nearly $150,000 in recent improvements include a remodeled kitchen with Granite Slab Counters and New Appliances, plus major upgrades such as a TPO Roof, LeafGuard Gutters, Tankless Water Heater, Whole-House Generator, updated plumbing and electrical, interior and exterior paint, landscaping, and more. The kitchen and primary suite each open to private decks surrounded by curated plantings and the soothing sounds of a nearby Water Feature. A vintage potbelly stove warms the main living area, while a second woodstove creates a cozy retreat in the primary suite.
