Tucked away on a private, wooded lot, this distinctive contemporary offers a rare blend of warmth, natural light, and forward-thinking design. Designed by an award-winning architect, the home incorporates passive energy-saving features that were decades ahead of their time. At the heart of the home is a striking, one-of-a-kind two-sided brick and stone fireplace, designed to efficiently circulate warmth throughout the living space without the drafts often found in traditional fireplaces. A standout feature is the south-facing glass atrium within the sunroom, capturing natural light throughout the day while offering peaceful views of the surrounding landscape and evening sunsets. The roof overhang allows sunlight to warm the interior in winter while helping keep the home cooler in summer-supporting year-round efficiency and livability. The inviting open floor plan creates a natural, effortless flow, balancing everyday living with spaces to gather and relax. Upstairs, the bedrooms are bright and well-proportioned, including a primary suite with its own full bath, plus an additional full bath. The finished lower level offers flexible space for a family room, office, gym, or playroom. Outside, enjoy a serene, wooded setting with space to unwind. A large garage offers excellent potential for a workshop or hobby space. A truly distinctive home that blends timeless architecture with inviting living spaces, set within a peaceful, wooded setting that feels like a private retreat.
