The Shire comes alive! The ORIGINAL Classic northwest "Dome home" on 1.7 in the Bald Hills. Situated in a park-like setting among garden spaces and mature trees, this uniquely designed and constructed home was built by Bob Hendricks whose legendary dome houses can be seen all around the area. This home was the builders' personal residence, and it shows. The interior has 2 floors, with 2 bedrooms plus a downstairs office/potential 3rd bedroom. The house and property has been well maintained and updated over the years. The kitchen has updated cabinets and appliances, and there is a brand-new boiler system for the hydronic heat. The fortified, concrete dome structure was built to withstand seismic stresses, heat, cold and all manner of weather. There are several well-constructed outbuildings for storage, or workshops. These buildings have concrete floors, metal roofs and insulated metal doors - very secure. There is also an open-ended metal carport in the back built on a concrete slab, that could be finished off into another outbuilding. This home needs some minor TLC and your personal touch. Come to "Bag-end" and continue the legacy of Bilbo and Frodo.
