Seasoned homes branch out.

Designed as a traditional saltbox for energy efficiency, this home is a full timber frame built in 1990 by the owners of Centennial Timber Frames. A timberframed greatroom was added, finished in 2007. Family and friends gathered to raise the addition – queen post trusses of recycled Doug fir. The room measures 20’ x 27’, floor to ridge peak is 15’9”. The enduring strength of wood creates a warm living space. Click to see the gallery...
