Discreet Oasis. Eco-Friendly 10-acre wooded estate, where contemporary living meets the tranquility of nature. One level semi-subterranean cast-concrete residence—a true architectural marvel. Its low-maintenance structure significantly reduces its ecological footprint. The expansive cast concrete slab roof, outfitted with large south-facing windows, allows natural light to illuminate your living areas. The living roof system not only provides insulation and captures rainwater but also serves as a habitat for local wildlife. Enhancing this green space, you will find elevated garden beds and a generous greenhouse—ideal for cultivating your own vegetables. As you unwind in the outdoor hot tub, embraced by flowering vines, take in the beauty of the 40-year-old rhododendrons. The yellow cedar decking, which overlooks an above-ground pool, creates the perfect backdrop for memorable get-togethers. Step inside to explore exquisite cherry cabinetry, stunning granite countertops, and a heated granite bar. The main bedroom features heated tile floors, a rain shower adorned with sliced river rocks, and an opulent soaking tub equipped with a built-in television. This home is engineered to endure—truly a bastion of resilience. With minimal maintenance requirements, it functions as a substantial thermal sink, allowing for warmth retention during colder months while keeping the interior comfortably cool in the summer—all without the need for air conditioning. Accessible Design for All. The property is surrounded by an acre of deer-proof fencing, creating a true haven. Within this retreat, 40 exotic fruit trees flourish with the help of drip irrigation, complemented by an extensive berry patch and mature flowering plants that enhance natural beauty. Sustainable Water Source. A deep well supplies untreated water, rich in natural minerals. Your estate represents more than just a property; it stands as a dedication to sustainable living—a sanctuary where...you can find yourself. (id:2493)
