Hemlocks were gathered on property and sent to a local saw mill for exterior reverse board and batten walls, and example of sustainability practices. An old bridge was reinvented and used for the staircase, bar top, and guest bathroom cabinet tops. The powder room barn door was built to continue the rustic elements of this well planned home. Poplar bark is used at the entrance and rear patio to offer texture to an already beautiful exterior. The kitchen is open but separate. Here you will find a Thermador oven and range, a warming drawer, and a microwave drawer which makes this a very efficient and easy to manage area in which to entertain. The entire home lends itself to entertaining all the new friends you will surely meet at Balsam Mountain Preserve.
The home offers a very harmonious feeling by the choice of colors and elements. Careful planning and shifting of an existing Al Platt Architectural plan makes this home truly enjoyable. A mix of wood and drywall make the home very welcoming but not too rustic. Additional separate zone radiant heating can be found in the garage, where the floor has also been acid stained.
