A private paradise nestled in the forest with a one level half underground engineered cast-concrete house with a cast concrete slab roof with enormous south facing windows that overlook your flower oasis and food forest. Professional inspection confirms the good health of the living roof system. Grow veggies in the raised garden beds and large greenhouse atop your living roof. Admire the 40 year old rhododendrons while soaking in your hot tub with outdoor shower amidst the vines. Host gatherings on the yellow cedar deck with above ground pool that allows guests to luxuriate, and soak up spectacular views of nature.

The laundry room boasts an extraordinary amount of storage, and there are 2 bedrooms with a 2nd bathroom with heated floor. This house is massively over engineered and practically indestructible. It has almost zero maintenance and acts as a giant thermal sink. There is electric heat but the wood burning fireplace keeps the house warm for days, and likewise this house stays cool in the summer, no AC required. The home is wheelchair friendly and was designed and was constructed by a professional engineer. Outdoors has almost an acre of deer fenced property surrounding your house and within you will find 40 exotic fruit trees on drip irrigation, an enormous berry patch, mature flowering shrubs and emerging perennial flowers and bulbs all summer.
