The exterior of the house is an attractive blend of varnished logs punctuated by the commanding stone chimney. The large deck has multiple entry points into the house, creating the perfect indoors/outdoors flow.
The contemporary construction encases a charming, modern living room which is a tasteful medley of wood, stone, and glass. The room is easily adapted to the seasons; airy in the summer, cozy in the winter.
The towering fireplace reaches all the way to the full height of the cathedral ceiling. It creates a grandiose living experience.
The main living area has an open concept with the kitchen and the dining room. The interweaving beams and posts combine to create an exciting aesthetic.
The kitchen, dining room, and sitting area are a social space where meals can be as formal or as informal as you please. This is what log homes are all about: bringing the family together for a simple, shared experience with few distractions.
The bedrooms are cozy spaces to retire to at the end of the day, accented by the lower ceiling and warm tones of the wood paneling.
