The New Yorker notes that Romero's work stands out for its "clarity, simplicity, and grace." This 2018 custom LVL home offers 3,248 square feet of precision-engineered living on 4.5 private acres, blending museum-quality design with remarkable durability and low-cost efficiency. **LIGHT-FILLED & DESIGNED FOR LIFE The View: Floor-to-ceiling glass makes nature a permanent guest, flooding every room with natural light and a serene "treehouse" feel. The Ease: Expertly designed for true single-level living. The main floor provides everything needed for "age-in-place" convenience, while the finished walkout basement offers expansive additional space. The Quality: Only 8 years old with whisper-quiet, high-end systems and high-performance, low-maintenance finishes. **ARCHITECTURAL DISTINCTION & DURABILITY Built for the 21st century, the structure features a 4x4 steel-post frame and Glulam beams, providing exceptional resistance to the elements (engineered for up to 150mph winds). Minimalist Logic: The exterior uses a sophisticated two-wall panel system with Kynar 500 coated galvanized steel and Shou Sugi Ban (charred cypress). Hidden Engineering: True to Romero’s minimalist philosophy, fasteners are hidden behind the metal skin for a clean silhouette, and a custom gutter system is visually concealed behind faux wall panels. **MAIN LEVEL LIVING Chef’s Kitchen: Minimalist design with Samsung Chef Collection appliances (induction/air-fryer), walnut-fronted cabinetry, and quartz counters. Primary Suite: Features a spa bath with a Juliet SculptureStone soaking tub and a walk-in closet with integrated laundry. Open Living/Dining: Anchored by a Danish-designed RAIS Mino wood-burning stove. Expansive Deck: A 60-foot deck extends the living space, featuring a covered patio below with an integrated gutter system to keep the lower level dry in any weather. **FINISHED WALKOUT LOWER LEVEL (9' Ceilings) Recreation Room & Office/Guest Room: Finished with sustainable, acoustic-dampening cork flooring. Includes a spacious entertainment area and a private fourth bedroom suite with a full bath. Studio/Workshop (355 sq ft): A dedicated creative space with durable painted concrete floors—ideal for an art studio, woodshop, or high-end gym. **EFFICIENCY & INFRASTRUCTURE Superior Envelope: Upgraded with spray foam and Rockwool insulation for air sealing and sound dampening, exceeding standard R-values.
