This custom geodesic home and large (40’x45’) barn sit on a 1.25-acre horse property. Set back from the street, the long driveway cuts through a forest of pine trees leading to the house and barn. The unique, geodesic house was built in 1978 by the current, original owners. They still have the plans for the home. Gardens and pathways surround the home with unique plants and herbs and a lovely sitting area on the back patio. The back portion of the lot is open with room for a horse corral or training area. As you enter the home, the open dome shape envelops you. The living room ceilings are created by the octagonal panels of the building. The open plan of the first floor forms a loop that brings you through the dining room, to the kitchen, into the laundry room and main bathroom, and through the main bedroom. All of the downstairs areas are light with high ceilings. The kitchen is all-electric with a center island and plenty of space to prepare and cook meals. There is a breakfast room with windows that face the lovely back porch and yard. The second floor is built into the back half of the dome. There are three bedrooms and one bathroom on the second story. The upstairs hallway is open to the living room below. The barn is large enough to provide covered parking for an RV but also has 3 built-in horse stalls (currently used for storage), and a chicken coop. There is storage space on a second level in the center of the barn building. The property has rights to well water through a well agreement with the adjacent property and is also connected to public water through WMWD. Your landscaping can be watered using the well water, saving you money on your utilities. There is a solar system that was installed in the 1970s, it does work, but may not be as efficient as a newer system would be. While you may feel like you are out in the country, this home is very convenient for local shopping and transportation. Don’t miss out on this wonderful rural paradise.
