If you’re looking for a home that exudes positive vibes, take a look at this geodesic dome house in Connecticut’s Litchfield County.
Tucked in the bucolic town of Cornwall Bridge, the 1,762-square-foot oasis, which is listed at $599,000, is composed of two geodomes integrated into one home.
Originally designed for a juggler who chose the architectural style so he could practice his craft, the three-bed, 2½ bath home at 197 Kent Road South was completed in 2003. But it was the current owners who overhauled the property to create a property filled with natural light and energy.
