This fantastic 3/4 geodesic dome in North Carolina is definitely not tiny, but it’s so neat we had to show it off! There’s even a look-out deck at the very top of the dome.
It’s a nice family vacation spot, with two double beds and a single, a full kitchen, and yes — a hot tub! There are 40 acres of nature to explore, including a pond that’s perfect for any fisherman.

Highlights:
Be prepared for a totally UNFORGETTABLE experience!! Set on 40+ acres among the rolling hills of Eastern Ashe County and close to Southwest Virginia, you will find this wonderfully handcrafted Buckminster Fuller design Geodesic 3/4 Dome. With over 300 square feet of windows, the home itself makes you feel like part of the surroundings. Solid cherry paneling, wormy chestnut cabinets, and wooden floors are just the beginning. An inside stairway leads to an enclosed observatory at the top of the dome; a perfectly romantic spot to view the stars above the canopy of trees. A deck surrounds half of the exterior of the dome and offers a nice sitting area for relaxing. Just out the kitchen door, a stone pathway leads to the patio, where swing, picnic table, and hot tub await!! Be sure to take some time to stroll around the property. Unforgettable is a tree-growing plantation as well as a working Frasier Fir Christmas tree farm and wildlife preserve, so numerous trails meander through the wooded and open areas.

No biggie, just a matter of moving it, but I cannot help but imagine getting up from the toilet to reach the toilet paper. Hilarious!
I think this is my favorite one. It hits all my wish list- funky house, spacious but still not huge, woods, deck, pond, hot tub, trails. I want it! Not a fan of that staircase but thats about it. Love the windows!!
Right? It really is the full package.
One problem with geodesic domes is that they transmit every bit of noise no matter how small or whereabouts in the dome its origin.
Probably not an issue here with a small dome, but in a large dome, eg family home, it can be disconcerting and dare I say, embarrassing.
One reason why they did not get take up in New Zealand.
