Architect-designed home by Prix de Rome winner A.A. Robins—an industrial-modern residence off Main Street. Formerly known as the Cone House, this home has been reimagined for modern living. Soaring 25-ft ceilings, clerestory windows, and five skylights bring abundant natural light to the loft-like interior. Featuring a corten steel exterior, heated concrete floors, heat pump, A/C, and HRV system for high efficiency and low maintenance. Flexible layout with a spacious primary suite, two office nooks, and a convertible study and loft. Heated garage. Recent updates: roof, plumbing, kitchen, boiler, windows, EV charger. High-end appliances (Miele, Bosch, Liebherr) and designer lighting by Artemide, Bocci, and Akari. Steps to everything—yet unlike anything. Open House: Sat/Sun, Sept 27/28, 2–4
