milled log homes
There is nothing, perhaps, more indicative of mountain style than a log home. Today's milled log homes combine the rich heritage of our forefathers with modern lifestyles where interiors are filled with light from large panes of glass and rooms are open and flow seamlessly together to accommodate interaction with friends and family.
characteristics of a milled log home
- Logs are uniform in diameter
- Surfaces are smooth, unless texture is added after milling
- Available in 4 profiles: round, square, rectangular, and "D" log
- Milled log homes generally have a lower turnkey cost to build
- Chinking is not required between log courses
- Textures can be added to the milled logs to give them a more rustic look
- Fabrication and installation of a milled log home takes less time than a handcrafted log home
