The Mushroom Houses

The four homes are all "touched" by Earl Young the famous eccentric builder/architect known for his mushroom house hobbit style home. The main house known as The Thatch House rose from the original stone walls set by Earl Young.

The new owner Michael Seitz reimagined the home with a drawing on a napkin and took nearly two years to redesign and finalize it specifically the specialized timber work and the trademark thatch roof shaped like the head of a mushroom. The beautifully flowing roof is crafted from the finest natural thatch hand-reaped in Europe and shipped to the US. Inside the home features six bedrooms five and a half baths as well as a media room and cozy sitting area on the upper level.
