The home
About this home
One half of the Mulberry front porch pair, this home is in the north-west corner of Firefly Bluff, offering a quiet retreat from the busier common areas at Terra Futura. Its western aspect welcomes the warmth of afternoon and evening sun and affords its residents restorative forest views. A southeast-facing window brings morning light into the spacious kitchen while the adjoining living room overlooks the neighbor’s verdant garden. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a large closet and an extra-wide window for ample natural light and views of the forest. A second bedroom is perfect for guests, kids, or an office. Both have easy access to the bathroom, which features a full tub and window for natural light. A linen closet offers additional storage. All homes at Terra Futura boast gold-level Green Built certification; well-insulated and outfitted with energy-efficient mini-split systems, heat pump water heaters, and low-E windows, our homes blend comfort with high performance. Finish materials include no-VOC paints and stains, renewable cork or bamboo flooring, and 100% wool carpet and underlayment upstairs. Building exteriors feature LP Smartside siding, real cedar shakes, and 5V crimp metal roofing for that Appalachian feel. This home is a leisurely stroll past the pollinator rain garden to parking and the mail kiosk. Residents enjoy easy access to a nature trail overlooking the forested ravine adjacent to Terra Futura property and other amenities including a wood-fired sauna, fire pits, and permaculture gardens.
