Timber Frame Homes / The GREAT Room.

This timber frame home features a classic saltbox design with native hemlock timbers and traditional joinery.

The great room tends to be the focal point in the timber frame design. This one is very pretty.

Love the contrast between the light walls and the weathered timbers. Great job Vermont Timber!
