Designed with energy-efficiency and comfort in mind, this ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) home gives you a sense of connection... connection to the water, connection to the earth. Enjoy the gentle splashing sounds of Alder Creek as it cascades through the backyard. Towering aspens, a huge green belt complete with hiking and biking trails, and the natural wildlife habitat of

Alder Creek are all right out your back door. Even mermaids have been seen lounging on the deck! Picture yourself in the fabulous great room with its grand, stone-floored kitchen--- just the right size for major parties or intimate get-togethers.

The "green" technology construction delivers comfort, durability and peace of mind. Insulated concrete exterior walls and double-offset-stud interior walls with cellulose insulation make this house incredibly quiet. 8' sliding doors and grand picture windows keep this home light, open and welcoming.
