This 3336 square foot 4 bedroom/3 &1.2 bath timber log home was built in 2007 using a materials package from Hochstetler Milling, an Amish owned Ohio based company. The home was personally built by the Homeowner, who worked for a professional local log home builder at the time. The logs are a 6x8 "D" shape with foam and caulk sealing all connections. The home has incredible insulating properties due to the solid log outer walls. The roof has 7 inch thick insulation panels which add to the high insulation factor. The home is currently heated by wood stove and baseboard heating, with the wood stove being the primary source of heat. The home is cooled during the warm season with 2 window air conditioners, which do an incredible cooling job due to the high insulation factor. The first floor has a full bath, half bath, master bedroom, food pantry/laundry room, and large kitchen with handmade cabinetry/countertops, dining and living room. Heavy timber stairs take you to the second floor which has 2 bedrooms, a library open area, full bath, and a newly added unfinished room which can be used for storage or made into another bedroom. A roof fan has been added to allow for air circulation on hot days. The basement has bathroom with shower, a finished bedroom with storage room access, an unfinished room, and small storage room and a one car garage with 12 foot wide door. There is a storage room built under the front porch which extends almost the full length of the home. Outside, a 14 x 10 foot shed was constructed in 2008, with log siding.
