We had a several challenges to face with this project. Not only did we need to update a dated landscape to accommodate two seemingly different design tastes (modern & minimalistic vs natural english garden), we were tasked with improving the property’s drainage, improving the driveway access, reducing water usage and plant maintenance, and fixing a crumbling wall. To marry the two design tastes, we started with the more modern elements of metal planters and softened the landscape with mass plantings of ornamental grasses and native sedge. These grasses act as a turf replacement that do not need to be mowed and require less regular watering. On each side of the yard we constructed new cedar fences to provide updated and additional privacy. In addition, we poured a new concrete wall to replace the existing retaining wall and play off the new modern vibe.

Clear Select Heart Pine is the best kept secret in unfinished solid wood flooring. A wide ranging species, itis prized for its distinctive grain patterns, rich patina and durability. From the Bahamas, throughout South America and into into parts of Mexico, this hearty species can be found thriving.

The clean lines of the limestone hearth are offset by the sinuous live edge of the handcrafted, custom wood mantelpiece. The wood is offset from the limestone surface just slightly to create a shadowline detail, an accent found also in the custom railings and in the kitchen cabinetry. (Woodworking by Gary A.

Having a deck for the homeowner, meant that it became the main focus of the outdoor space. This meant decorating it with plants, lights, and other accents in order to compliment the natural Ipe hardwood.

A true piece of American history. 100+ year old lumber reclaimed from old barns in West Virginia. In the early 1900's, a fungus emerged and rapidly spread through America's Chestnut tree forests. By 1935, a good portion of the mature Chestnut trees were destroyed by the fungus. During this time the wood was considered inferior because of bore holes caused by an insect that invaded the diseased trees. To eliminate the spread of any futher tree disease, the trees were quickly milled into lumber for barns, fences, structure flooring, and siding.

This rustic exterior leads to a modern interior with all the bells and whistles. Antique timber veneers, Backwood Bark and reclaimed Mountianwood grace the exterior of the home, while reclaimed Legacy Red Oak floors, reclaimed brick and other design elements carry out the theme of comfort and elegance through to the inside of the home. The stunning hallway of glass incased by our reclaimed timbers are mirrored to match on the interior and exterior of the home. Through the use of reclaimed and natural materials provided by Appalachian Antique Hardwoods, the home blends perfectly with the woods that surround it. Photo by Kevin Meechan.
