The Quarry Mill's Madison real thin stone veneer creates an old-world Mediterranean feel on the exterior of this beautiful home. Madison natural thin stone veneer is a classic choice for a rustic limestone. The stone is a rough-cut split face limestone in shades of grey, buff/cream, and tan. Although Madison is an ashlar style stone, the individual pieces are inconsistent in terms of their shapes. Some ashlar stones are naturally very straight and strip-like, whereas Madison could almost resemble a fieldledge style. Madison’s inconsistency is what gives it its beauty and creates a look that can only be achieved with natural stone. The shapes also give flexibility to the mason over the final design.

Antique barn door with roller and track system. Also, due to sub floor being exposed and expansion joint required in log construction, barn wood trim was added along pine logs and for base board. In the end gave it a perfect rustic touch.

In the Powder Room, a furniture piece with finished in leather and nail heads was used as the vanity. We took the top off and added a honed limestone counter, copper vessel sink and copper wall mounted faucet.
