DESCRIPTION
This house was built in 1984. The technique is called cordwood masonry consisting of cordwood varying in lengths. The house has 18 inch pieces, thus we have 18 inch think walls. As the log pieces are stacked a special mix of cement fills the gaps around each piece making a very strong and insulated wall.

The original house is round, 38 feet in diameter and an addition of 14 x 16 feet was added in 1996 along with a Adirondack style porch to view the mountains.

Our house was featured in Adirondack Life Magazine in April 1988 when they did a story about owner built, low cost and energy efficient homes.

The inside of our house is modest, with three bedrooms, a full bath, which is all new, and a large living room, kitchen combined. The dinning room is in the new addition. We have on demand hot water, which means you never run out! The house is heated by a monitor heater and also a wood stove if needed.

The house sits on a 3.5 acres which borders a 16 acre pond which is not owned by us. There are no neighbors, only across the street, which is a second home. The road itself is very quiet, maybe a dozen cars per day. Also on the property is a vegetable garden during the summer months which you are welcome to use.

Our land is surrounded by forest, fields, water and mountains. Just minutes from the hiking trails of the High Peaks, 25 minutes from Lake Placid, and two hours from Montreal.

We even have another parcel of land with a year-round brook with areas where one can sit and relax with just the sounds of the birds and a babbling brook. This land is within walking distance from the "Round Cabin" and you are welcome to it!
