Hmm... I don't know about the wood burning heat. It works on a small scale, but on a large one can lead to deforestation. There are other greener methods of climate control.

Ideal indeed. Very beautiful. I should show you my book, "The Hand-Sculpted Home", which will tell you exactly how to finance and build a structure like this.

Wood, when burned in a newer design super-efficient stove and paired with passive solar design, heavy insulation and thermal mass, and a small square footage home is actually carbon neutral and infinately sustainable if the user also makes sure to properly manage a woodlot (see "coppicing").
