What makes this property unique

This house was built by Blanche and Charles Bicking who had wide international experiences through their involvement with AFS International Scholarships, The UN Industrial Development Organization, and the Japanese Union of Scientists and Engineers. Their love of the outdoors led to the design of this Japanese inspired all wood house with minimized barriers to the outside, described by some tenants as 'like a big tent in the woods with modern amenities', and 'modern rustic'. Large south facing roof windows allow solar heat to be stored by a floating concrete slab on the first floor, moderating temperature swings, especially in the Spring and Fall. Large deck door screens on the lower level and cupola windows allow natural convective air flow in the summer.
