Property Description

At the end of a bucolic country road, down a long driveway and perched atop a forested rise sits Honeycomb, one of four custom designed homes to be built at Beehive, a private and secluded four home enclave in Accord. Fresh Air Land Co's core philosophy is to design and build high performance luxury homes that promote a constant feeling of connection to the outdoors and provide meaningful engagement with nature in all seasons. Honeycomb perfectly embodies this philosophy. Inspired by mid-century modern masterpieces, the design invokes simplicity in nature -- with light, air, and openness prioritized to seamlessly co-exist with the home's natural surroundings. The architecture is defined by a distinctive flat roof, reaching out towards the landscape and visually emphasizing the ground plane. A ribbon of clerestory glass wraps the house directly below the roofline, simultaneously expanding views out towards the hillside and optimizing daylight within. Select moments of floor-to-ceiling glass create a direct connection to the site while large sliding glass doors fully recess blurring the boundaries of interior and exterior. The layout consists of two asymmetric wings, offset strategically to best capture the daylight. The single level communal wing is defined by design-era inspired portals which foster an open visual connection between defined interior spaces. A spacious screened-in room adjacent to the kitchen provides 4-season entertaining while further emphasizing the relationship between the indoor and the outdoor environment. A double-sided fireplace provides warmth and ambiance to both the dining area and living room. The sleeping wing contains three spacious bedrooms, two on the ground floor (one of which is ensuite), a primary ensuite on the second floor along with a flex room that can be utilized as an additional sleeping quarters, den or home office. A separate gallery space overlooking the open stair can be used as a library or additional sitting area. The gallery and primary suite provide access to a large outdoor terrace fully immersing its occupants among the treetops during the day and encouraging epic stargazing at night. The outdoor elements include an expansive deck outfitted with an all-season kitchen and comfortable dining/lounge area soaking up light from all exposures. A pool can be installed to complete the outdoor entertainment space. A rustic stone walkway wraps around the back of the house and leads to the screened in porch, a bug-free environment where you can be serenaded by the mellifluous sounds of wildlife. Walking paths lead into the forest for quiet contemplation or to tuck into your sauna and/or cedar hot tub. For those passionate about a farm-to-table lifestyle, there is an option to install a productive fruit and vegetable gardens. The high-quality finish package at Honeycomb evokes the feeling of luxury while supporting many of the sustainability elements prevalent to the design including (but not limited to) FSC certified hardwood and natural stone flooring throughout, hardwood wall/ceiling cladding, stone countertops, Cotto Etrusco (or similar) handcrafted tiles, Waterworks (or similar) Watersense fixture packages, custom FSC certified wood cabinetry and built-ins, and Energy-Star rated panelized appliance packages. All of Fresh Air Land Co's homes are built to vastly decrease energy consumption including geothermal and/or solar systems for heating and cooling, on-demand hot water, high-efficiency windows, passive standard insulation and an ERV systems that constantly move filtered fresh air inside the living space, promoting a healthy interior environment. Add-ons include in-ground pools, garages with additional studio space, vegetable/fruit gardens, saunas, cedar hot tubs, treehouses and whole house backup battery packs.
