That's right, it's a NAUTILUS SHELL!! You'll be inspired by the creativity and thoughtful design in this unique retreat that combine to generate remarkable, positive energy. Private, yet not remote. Surrounded by nature both inside and out few homes exemplify such respect for natural materials and the land. Over 200 species of wood are incorporated into the structure.

Tankless water heaters. Propane gas powers boiler for circulating hot water heating/radiator system. The full basement can accommodate high powered wood-working equipment, as can the workshop.
