You could be in Tuscany, but you are less than two hours from downtown San Francisco in the heart of the Dry Creek Valley of Sonoma County. Located less than 20 minutes from the town square in Healdsburg, this home takes advantage of the spectacular view that this country site offers - vineyards that roll over the hills, mountains in the distance, hawks hover in the updraft in the valley below. As you come over the hill, take in the striking architecture. The slot window in the front door only hints at the dramatic interior - rich materials, color and art. The design of the house was influenced by the architect's love of mid-century California architecture, particularly the work of Richard Neutra. Many features allude to the design style including: bi-fold windows that seamlessly connect the interior to the exterior, floor-to-ceiling window walls, broad flat overhanging roof planes and a simple plan with open living/dining and kitchen space.The house was built with
state-of-the-art green principles and technology. A few of these
features are:
• photovoltaic solar electric panels
• solar domestic hot water
• site orientation to keep cool in summer, warm in winter
• mass concrete wall to modulate heat
• low and no-VOC paints
• carpet made of corn oil
• wood floors from recycled content
• construction materials recycled
