Rise | We've Done the Research
Aesthetics
This log home blends beautifully into its environment, and despite having more than 5,200 square feet of living space, it still looks and feels cozy. A variety of natural materials and elements were used in conjunction with the logs, such as stone. One of the striking features of this home is its 40-foot tall fireplace. Aside from being built from solid concrete block, it is accentuated by roughly 5 tonnes of rounded rock, sourced from a local rock pit.
Foundation
The home is built on top of ICF (insulated concrete forms) on both sides of the concrete walls of the foundation.
Insulation & Walls
Log homes can be a bit challenging when it comes to insulation. The main floor actually has no insulation. The second floor has blown-in R-24 and the roof has blown-in R-60.
