This beautiful home is nestled serenely into the woods adjacent to a community maintained meadow with peaceful views on all sides highlighted by a view of the Brushy mountains from the south side. The Blue Ridge Parkway entrance is only 30 minutes away to the west and Charlotte is a 1 ½ hr drive south. The home is architecturally drawn and full of character with many unique features. It is purposefully designed to be extremely energy efficient having attained LEED Gold Certification. The owner has enjoyed the home as a second residence; with an active solar water heating system, power bills have averaged less than $100/month for the past two years. You will love the lack of wasted space and the extensive use of wood and other natural textures that surround you. A soapstone radiant heater fireplace adds beauty, warmth, and ambiance on a cold winter day. Along with the beautiful meadow, the West Meadow community supports an organic garden area and walking trails for all to enjoy.
