This unique house, built by owners who are builders by profession, features vaulted ceilings throughout most of the house; a barrel vaulted living room ceiling; curved arches and soffeting. Thin-slab concrete (2nd Fl.) and slab on grade (1st fl,) with radiant tubing throughout. A two-story sunroom at center of house adds passive-solar heat as well as distributing lots of light. The main floor is at ground level with large doors that open to outside patio areas that are nestled in a park-like backyard. Neighborhood Description Up on the side of a small mountain just off the Mt. Baker Highway is a small network of winding streets that comprise the Emerald Lake community. Emerald Lake itself has a public beach on one side; two other locations allow local residents to access it. The houses don't have the cookie-cutter feel to them like the newer neighborhoods nearby, and many undeveloped lots between houses (likely to stay that way due to septic restrictions) create buffer zones between houses. The neighborhood has houses and cabins built in the 50's and 60's in woodsy backstreet locations, all the way up to modern high-end homes with spectacular views up at the top of the mountain, and everything in between, giving it an eclectic feel. Its about 7 minutes to I-5; the high school and elementary school are close by.
