Living proof that straw bale structures can fit into any neighbourhood, this home has all the modern amenities and looks like a model home for suburban developments. Except for the thickness of the walls you wouldn't know that this home was built using, so-called, "alternative" methods. It is mainstream, solid and provides a comfort level of which the owner always dreamed. There is a lovely use of bamboo hardwood flooring throughout. The bathroom and kitchen are finished with fine wood cabinets, ceramic and contemporary fixtures. There were no compromises in making this home into an attractive and functional paradise.
