The Yestermorrow Guest House

A Green Architectural Frolic in Vermont's Mad River Valley

Every space custom designed. Every surface hand crafted. A live-in piece of full scale 3D art! Located right along the banks of the Mad River, Route 100, Waitsfield, Vermont.

Guest Residence
This delightful residence combines striking sculptural forms and flowing spaces in an eminently livable work of art. Built by Yestermorrow architecture students and staff over a 16-year period, the highly refined design is both energy efficient and environmentally engineered. Living Room - Eating Area to left It features every energy conserving and health enhancing innovation of its time, including:

Radiant Heat

Nontoxic materials and finishes

Super Efficient Boiler (90% plus)

Positive Fresh Air Supply

Biological Waste Treatment (solar greenhouse)

Heat moderating Trombe Wall

Often compared to a luxury yacht, this well-planned 3-level home with 2 Bedrooms, 1-1/2 Baths, radiant heating, and a lower-level Carport contains 1,110ą square feet of carefully sculpted space that makes it feel much larger. The Master Bedroom faces directly out onto a deck that overlooks the river.

The Foyer opens to a private Office. Exotic "ipe" hardwood stairs ascend to the main Living Area, with 14' ceiling and wood-burning stove. The sculptural staircase doubles as built-in seating. The open-plan, diner-style Kitchen includes a built-in eating peninsula. On the upper level, a sky-lit Loft Bedroom/Den overlooks the living area below. Accented with stained-glass lighting, the Master Bedroom with Bath opens to a large private Deck, affording splendid river views.

Property
The house is sited in the midst of 10ą acres of carefully screened and protected meadow land, and yet it is less than five miles to Sugarbush, Mt. Ellen, Mad River Glen and all the other Valley recreation. Exterior View This rare estate spans 900'+ of pristine shoreline along the Mad River. Surrounded by hedgerows of tall pine and poplar, the property enjoys scenic seclusion as well as convenient access to all area amenities. Zoning and permits (in process) make this parcel easy to subdivide. The property also provides several ideal sites for a main residence.

Outbuildings
Along the shoreline, the commercial-style Greenhouse (28' x 33') provides biologically engineered water purification along with ample room for the horticulturist.

Location
One of Vermont's most beautiful valleys, the Mad River watershed offers 3 famous ski areas, a Robert Trent Jones golf course, nationally renowned equestrian events, hiking, biking, snowmobiling, and myriad river sports. The region also hosts a noted cultural community. Burlington Airport is less than an hour away. Upstairs library/den - Arts & Crafts style
