For Sale: Custom Monolithic Dome Home on Wooded Mountaintop Retreat
Built in 2005, this custom Monolithic Dome is perched just above a spring-fed pond surrounded by woods, pastures, and peace and quiet.
The stained glass double doors leading into the primary bedroom suite add a splash of color to the white pine clad walls and floors of Cloudome. The wood used to finish the home was harvested from the site.
