Though this deck house in Lincoln is listed for $1,295,000, the place is actually quite the bargain. That’s because it stretches to a whopping 4,049 square feet, so you get more bang for your buck by paying $320 per square foot.

It’s not the price tag alone, however, that’s dropping jaws. The contemporary abode, built in 1961, is an architectural gem. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood every room in sunlight, bringing the outside in. Soaring beamed ceilings make the home feel airy, too, while natural materials like wood and stone establish harmony with the outdoors.

A floating staircase in the two-story foyer leads to the home’s four bedrooms, including two master suites with their own bathrooms. Downstairs, a two-sided fireplace warms the living room, while a wood stove makes the family room extra cozy. Beyond it, there’s a deck, a two-car garage with workshop space and a sauna, plus a woodsy backyard.
