Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this Geodesic Dome offers a retreat-like setting on 3.4 acres of private land. Nearly 500 feet of river frontage stretches along the property’s edge, with your own forest walking trail following the riverbank, creating a sense of peace and connection to nature. The home itself reflects the vision of Buckminster Fuller, designed for efficiency, strength, and harmony with the environment. The 20-inch exterior walls, insulated with spray foam, provide outstanding efficiency and comfort. The bulk of the many windows face south to take advantage of the sun, while a decorative concrete block wall inside acts as a natural heat sink, storing warmth during the day and releasing it slowly into the evening. A dramatic soaring ceiling with exposed wood beams and a warm wood-clad interior create a welcoming atmosphere, with natural light flooding the open spaces and framing views of the forest and river. Adding to the uniqueness of the property, a second dome forms part of the cluster of geodesic design. This insulated garage not only accommodates vehicles, it can also be heated for use as a workshop and includes a loft space for storage or projects. The walk-out basement provides additional living area with plenty of potential to finish and customize. Water service is supplied by a well, with a cistern for gardening needs, and a municipal connection is also available if desired. Every aspect of this property blends architectural significance with everyday function. From the super-efficient dome design to the natural sanctuary along the river, this home is more than a residence, it is an inspiring place to live, create, and connect. (id:63008)
