Arizona Dome Home!
Arizona Dome Home!
No longer just a 60's fad, dome houses are now being recognized as ecologically sound, safe structures that conserve building materials and energy. They're also far safer from the ravages of storms than traditionally built homes since high winds simply roll over them rather than pounding at full velocity into straight-sided structures. And after looking at all the McMansions in this feature, isn't it nice to get a dose of simplicity once in a while? Many examples of dome homes are spotted all over this country and overseas with more being built every day.
This attractive monolithic dome house is in Dewey-Humbolt, Arizona on a 2-acre corner lot with entrances from both streets. The landscape is maintenance-free natural vegetation, but there is nothing preventing a homeowner-gardener from turning it into an artful desert paradise. The house itself is 2,462sf with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. There is also a great room, large kitchen, dining room, second floor bonus room, covered patio and enclosed attached garage. Climate control is achieved through central air, forced air gas heat.
This home recently received a 43.9 percent price cut and is now being offered at $185k
