Cozy Cabin

January 7, 2011

Happy Home Tour Friday to you!

Today we’re visiting the Donner Lake area in Truckee, CA (very close to Tahoe ) to see a gorgeous mountain cabin.

Oh the views!

This green-built home includes solar hot water heating, direct gain solar heating, Recycled and Healthy insulation and “Breathable” walls, among others.

But that’s a LOT of snow!!

and still falling…

Love this heart tucked among the masonry.

Back to outpouring sunshine!

The property runs along a creek in the backyard.  Stunning!

One more peek at all that sunshine before we move inside…

Love this stairwell!

Isn’t this just gorgeous?  Love the red!

This sofa was specifically designed for this large window – give me a mug of hot chocolate and a book please!

And the best for last: WOW!!

Many thanks to Jon Stoumen, Architect LEED AP of Palo Alto for this naturally awesome home tour.  Visit his website at: www.stoumen.com.

***Here’s one of my New Year’s Resolutions: be better at announcing giveaway winners, so starting tomorrow Saturday posts will announce winners!  Um, why didn’t I think of that before??!?  I have no idea.  See you tomorrow!
