Experience an unparalleled blend of architectural innovation, comfort and income potential in this truly one-of-a-kind mountain home, where historically inspired design meets modern functionality. This fully remodeled geodesic dome is a testament to ingenuity and pays homage to the retro ski community of the Fraser Valley. Situated on a private, treed 1.4 acre lot in Winter Park Ranch, this 4-bedroom sanctuary features a light-filled main living space with hardwood floors, an expansive domed ceiling, large windows that frame the tranquil forest setting and a modern gas fireplace that anchors the room. With a sizeable dining area and tons of outdoor living space this home is perfect for entertaining year around. The updated, gourmet kitchen is complete with ample storage and counter... space, a 6-burner stainless steel gas range and incredible granite countertops with colorful variations almost as unique as the home itself. Adjacent to the kitchen, a versatile sunroom offers endless possibilities for rejuvenation and relaxation. Whether cultivating tropical plants, savoring a cup of coffee or enjoying your very own yoga sanctuary, the space adds to the distinctive charm of this remarkable home.
230 Balsh is located minutes from Fraser and on the ski shuttle route. The unusually large lot gives the feel of being off the beaten path, yet this home has the advantage of being on city water & sewer and near the amenities you and your family & friends want to experience. Enjoy evening campfires surrounded by aspens and pines. Keep your eyes open as the local Moose seem to love this location and so you will have some new 4 legged friends before you know it!
Inspired by organic and molecular forms found in the natural world, the geodesic dome is an energy efficient and structurally enhanced architectural design that was refined and widely popularized by Buckminster Fuller, a pioneering American architect, inventor, environmentalist, and mathematician. Offering nearly 2500 square feet of living space, this dome home is remarkably livable, complete with a great room, lower level media room, a main floor primary suite, 3 lower-level bedrooms, and a large loft offering bonus space that could be utilized as a fitness area, office, reading nook, or for additional sleeping capacity. The home sleeps 12 comfortably and performs well as a self-managed short-term rental with nearly $60k in gross revenue. A studio apartment over the heated, 2-car garage provides an easy source of additional income or the perfect setting for a home office or mother-in-law suite.
