This Western timber frame home is absolutely stunning. The exterior and interior showcase the distinctive features of a log and timber frame home. This ranch-style log home with timber accents is situated on a beautiful property out in the country, and it feels as if you're stepping onto the set of Yellowstone. Let’s explore all of the features that make this country timber frame home plan unique.

A unique blend of materials, like timber, stone, and cedar, gives the home a beautiful exterior appearance, contrasting with the dark roof. The Western-style roof has a flying rake at the top, giving the home character. This timber frame ranch home features covered porches with hand-hewn wood posts and stone accents that highlight the Douglas Fir door. Expansive windows let in natural light and provide views of sunrises and sunsets.

Stamped concrete gives the appearance of wood, with its unique color and texture, and is slip-resistant and low-maintenance. On the sides of the Western timber frame home are metal railings. Outdoor living spaces allow you to enjoy a meal or a cup of coffee while enjoying views of the creek and rolling hills in the distance. The exterior also features limestone that was found on the property.
