Built with efficiency and sustainability in mind, this passive solar home was built to offer lower utility costs. Features include a Tulikivi soapstone thermal wood stove, energy-efficient gas fireplace, HRV ventilation system, and multiple heating options that blend comfort with performance.

The deck and viewing vistas take in the unobstructed, long-range mountain views-often described as "above the clouds."
