Discover the original classic Northwest "Dome Home" situated on 1.7 acres outside the city limits of the beautiful town of Yelm. Set within a park-like Landscape featuring lush garden spaces and mature trees, this uniquely designed and constructed residence was built by Bob Hendricks, whose legendary dome houses and shelters are icons throughout the area. Because this home served as the builder's personal residence, the quality of craftsmanship truly shows. The interior features 2 floors, including 3 bedrooms, plus a downstairs office that could easily serve as a 4th bedroom. Both the house and property have been meticulously maintained and updated over the years; the kitchen boasts updated cabinets and appliances, a brand-new boiler system for the hydronic heating, and a new water heater. Built for the ultimate durability, the fortified, concrete dome home structure was built to withstand seismic stresses, extreme temperatures, and all manner of weather. The property also includes several well-constructed outbuildings, perfect for storage, or workshops. These secure structures have concrete floors, metal roofs and insulated metal doors. Additionally, an open-ended carport, also on a concrete slab, is located at the rear and offers the potential to be finished into another enclosed outbuilding. While the home needs some minor TLC and your personal touch, it is a rare opportunity continue a local legacy. Schedule your showing today- this rare find won't last long!!
