This 2,464 sq. ft. house design features an open plan combination of kitchen, living, and dining areas in a vaulted living space spanned by queen post timber-frame bents. The great room is highlighted by the lofty, internally-exposed timber-frame structure along with a stone fireplace flanked by expansive windows providing far-reaching views. The master bedroom is located in an adjacent vaulted space, and the lower level houses a garage, additional bedrooms, and a walk-out basement. The materials, views, and footprint of this house relate to the outdoors as well as create a natural indoor quality. This design is suitable for use as a permanent home or as a part-time vacation home, and building plans are available for purchase.
