Energy efficient EarthCraft home sits lakeside on a private, wooded estate in Georgia.
Edge Valley, nestled just north of Columbus, Georgia, on 111 wooded acres is a private retreat featuring a custom EarthCraft home.
The 6,170-square-foot house sits on the northeast side of a 14.5-acre lake and was designed, sourced, and constructed to reduce environmental impacts. A significant amount of wood and stone was pulled from what is now the lake bottom, kiln-dried, and used throughout the house, including the red and white oak floors, cupola ceiling beams, poplar interior doors, and a grand stone fireplace.
The home features three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, with space and plumbing in place to build a fourth, as well as a spacious, open-concept kitchen with a commercial-grade sink and oven. One of the most interesting features of the home is a clear, in-laid flooring panel providing natural sunlight to the first floor and a clear view of the cupola above.
Guests venturing outdoors will enjoy sweeping wraparound porches and a large, outdoor pavilion and fireplace.

The home achieved the Gold Standard rating through the EarthCraft program, featuring solar power, earthen basement floors, geothermal HVAC, and geothermal wells — all of which adds up to a projected 30 percent savings in energy bills.
The house fits seamlessly into its serene setting with wooded hillsides, gently rolling streams and beautiful meadows. Wild game is plentiful, and the lake is well-stocked with Florida hybrid bass and crappie.
Plus, it’s only 20 minutes from the Columbus Airport, convenient for private flights.
