About this property

The Shell Dome ~Sauna ~Outdoor Shower ~Mtn Views ~Movie Projector ~Labyrinth

This must be the place... Your humble palace on a mountaintop. Built entirely by our hands with help from friends & family, we carefully crafted this Nautilus Shell Dome with artistic luxuries for renewal of self and ecological inspiration. Sauna. Outdoor shower. 100' Labyrinth. Projector. 20min to downtown AVL, 10 to charming Weaverville. The horizon reveals mountain views with stunning sunrises. In the valley below a pond is fed by babbling falls and horses graze. The reviews say it all.

Why they chose this property

We crafted this property over half a year, fairly non-stop. We live in two large, connected geodesic domes and are inspired by alternative structures. We let our minds run wild and this nautilus shell dome was the result!
