Tucked in the woods of Kennebunkport, the solar-powered residence has a rustic, handcrafted feel.
It may be situated on the ominously named Road to Misery, but this off-grid dome house in the coastal town of Kennebunkport, Maine, sits on nearly 43 acres of picturesque woods. "I think of this home as my largest sculpture, and from the beginning we designed it with the satisfaction of knowing we were fulfilling our dream," says Daphne Pulsifer, who built the residence with her partner, Daniel, in 2003.
Though tucked away on a secluded lot, the property is conveniently located near the heart of Kennebunkport, Maine, and is only four miles away from the nearest beach.

Local artist Daphne Pulsifer and her partner, Daniel, built the home in 2003 and have since used it as a family retreat. An abundance of wildlife, including various species of birds and deer, frequently visit the surrounding landscape.

"This type of construction process was very new to Kennebunkport at the time, but with Daniel’s determination and my design, we navigated the permitting process and quickly began work on the site," says Daphne.
Exposed posts and beams, crafted from trees on site, complement the large wooden entrance.
