Sitting in harmony with its woodland setting, this exceptional mountain retreat is a refuge reflecting peace and calm. Designed to embrace natural light, this LEED Silver 'Parade of Homes' 2013 winner for both innovation and craftsmanship is elegantly simple and respectful of its surroundings. Honoring the century-old rhododendron and laurel thickets, the thoughtfully designed greenwood is sprinkled with hydrangeas, native azaleas, dogwoods, grasses, and a stunning collection of Japanese maples. An expansive covered outdoor patio 'room' allows for living with the trees. Wander the 2.77 private acres of forest trails and resting spots, and then play and splash in Robinson Creek. The climate-responsive house design incorporates both active and passive solar, 3 energy-storing batteries, a geothermal heat pump with a heat-ventilator HRV recovery system, all working together to keep air quality optimized and procure monthly winter electric bills in the teens! This distinctive home and grounds have been twice featured in 'Carolina Homes + Garden' magazine. Minutes from organic grocers, exceptional dining, urgent care, and the best shopping Asheville offers!. By appointment only, with inspiration from the seasons.
