The Mountain Cabin, located in central Vermont, is nestled among the trees on a west facing knoll overlooking the Mad River Valley. This two bedroom, two bath home provides compact living on one level. Bi-fold doors at the south west corner of the cabin open wide to provide access to a deck and connect with the outdoors.

Low maintenance, energy efficient, modern and edgy are among the adjectives the client used to describe her vision for her new home. The Mountain Cabin is all of the above with durable, stained cedar siding, clad windows and a standing seam metal roof. Polished concrete floors with radiant heat and a modern wood stove keep the cabin warm while extra thick walls, full of insulation, increase efficiency. Clean lines, sleek built-ins, European appliances and contemporary plumbing fixtures contribute to the modern look.

A separate one-car garage with a charging station for an electric car and solar photo voltaic panels furthers the sustainable agenda.
