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!
