Would you believe that there exists a geodesic dome house near the mountains of the Catskills? Yes there is. This $1.49 million Catskills home at 106 Mountain Laurel Lane, which sits a little more than one acre, features a home with two very rare architectural styles.
The first style is contemporary, which is inspired by the "lines and modern aesthetic of Frank Lloyd Wright." The other features a design of a dome, inspired by architect Buckminster Fuller. The two distinct styles were built together into a 3,300-square-foot home with three bedrooms. Inside the home, you will find a triangle door from the "contemporary wing" that leads you into a geometric space with triangular windows and a pentagon skylight. The house was built with a very distinct architectural design.
Sitting on 1.73 acres of forest, the house is just five minutes away from Woodstock. Basing on its façade and the sculptures outside, you can tell that this property is not an average upstate home.
The house features modern aesthetics, which include the soaring, contemporary great room. The double-height ceilings that are wood-beamed make the home look spacious and lofty - just like an authentic mountain home.
The stunning master bedroom also has high ceilings and a window with a great view of the surrounding forest.
The kitchen is outfitted with custom lighting, modern appliances, as well as an old-school wood burning stove.
The living room is just as distinct as the kitchen, which has been carefully designed to complement everything, like the triangle doors, windows and entryways.
The unusual three-bedroom house, which is not far from skiing in the Catskills at Hunger Mountain and is only about two hours from Manhattan, is made up of two architectural styles for a look that's distinct.
This "architectural wonder" known as "The Embrace," boasts 4 bathrooms and 3,300 square feet of space. This distinct home also comes with a whimsical gazebo that looks out onto an open grassy area.
