Architect Dick Knecht’s idea of this home recognizes the convenience, sustainability, and environmentally sound options conveyed throughout the structure. Nestled within the hills amongst a forest of ponderosa pines, the environmentally friendly home fits well with its surroundings. The rustic appeal with a modern twist adds an earthy gesture to the theme of the home.

Simple elegance is a good way to describe this beautiful home along a Black Hills stream. Wood and masonry give the home a comfortable, sturdy feel, while earth tone colors surround you and give the sense of a warm cabin. High ceilings in the living room and kitchen open up the space and bring in light, and a pergola over the kitchen gives the cook a cozy spot to create. Roomy bedrooms and baths give space to move about and treat yourself right. In-floor radiant heat warms the home throughout.
