One of Teton Village's most storied homes is now on the market for the first time.
In 1982, this home was designed and built by the famed Captain Bob Morris to be on the leading edge of sustainability and energy conservation. Now, it is time for the next owner to bring a fresh vision to one of the Old Village's best lots. This home is an easy eight-minute walk to the JHMR base area and surrounded by natural, native landscaping with great views of the ski resort and the valley.
Energy efficiency is the driving focus of this home. Award-winning architect Bob Corbett, designer of Walk Festival Hall in Teton Village and Snow King Inn in Jackson, used the space and natural surroundings to bring a unique twist to this home. On the south-facing wall, the three-story greenhouse was constructed for optimal passive heat gain throughout the house, while copper pipes in the greenhouse wall heats domestic water in the house. In winter months, an efficient furnace helps heat the lower levels, allowing warmth to rise within the concrete and steel structure. Before compostable toilets were en vogue, a Clivus Multrum toilet was installed, minimizing overall water usage of the home.
A unique floor plan features four identical suites/bedrooms on the two upper levels with the kitchen and living room on the lower level. Suspended furniture is featured throughout the house and assists in ease of upkeep and maintenance.
