Environmental meets cozy-industrial in the home's interior with exposed earth block walls, cement-finished earthen floors, an open steel roof, and large concrete countertops. Each room has door-access to the outside. Look down from a green (grass-covered) roof over gardens that bloom March through October. Two large patios grace the front with an outdoor oven and BBQ areas. The spacious yard is full of opportunity and backs up to a small stream that flows into the community lake and public beach. This pioneering home is a statement in sustainable architecture?blending luxury, environmental stewardship, and modern design. A rare opportunity to own a piece of the future!
