The dazzling a-symmetric 'Wintergreen' by Balance Associates Architects cottage is a fascinating getaway that merges everything you could ever want from a cottage into one. With a gorgeous wooden exterior, the cottage has the rustic appeal of an old-fashioned cabin, but the modern design of a newly built home. Since it's a new build, this also means that it has access to amenities that true cabins are lacking -- meaning that anyone can enjoy the great outdoors without having to give up any comforts of home.
The views out of the large windows that make up over half the house allow for the view to be enjoyed from anywhere. The architectural firm also made great use of the decks by adding 3 decks onto the exterior of the home.
