Welcome
This sophisticated rustic Log Home shows a tasteful use of natural materials combined with refined wood, polished granite and delightful fixtures.

The Logs
You will notice the beautiful 12”, 14”, and 16” round accent logs are hand peeled and are used as accents around the house.
9” round Barna Logs are used in the construction.

The View
The views wrap around the home on all sides. The house orients to the most dramatic sightings with a 270° degree long range view, but the remainder of the 360° degree view is pastoral and mountainous.

The Setting
This small neighborhood, The Glens of Ironduff, provides easy year round access with paved streets and year round neighbors as well. The knoll top setting shows off the house to its’ best advantage. The wide open views surround the house. There is small but charming creek on the border of the property in a peaceful wooded ravine of big oaks.

The 2.419 acres affords privacy as well as views. The house overlooks a neighbor but no houses feel like they overlook this home. There are neighbors but not right on top of each other.

In General
The quality of construction is evident in all areas of the home. The Barna Logs are upgraded to 9 inch round logs. The thermal pane windows on the main level are sliders that can be opened up like a screen room. There is a Mission theme that runs through out; that seems to blend with the logs without being too fussy. Solid wood beams and hand peeled accent posts offer support in some of the most visible areas of the home. The foyer makes a grand statement and is reminiscent of an indoor forest. The natural tone of the massive log trees adds a unique quality through out.

The Fireplace
The fireplace is masonry hand built for use with wood or as a gas log burning fireplace. This masonry construction is hard to find in today’s new construction. The unit is equipped with a turn key for the gas (off or on). There is the option to remove the gas logs and burn wood, according to the owner. The fireplace is constructed of stacked stone from the floor to the ceiling, up two stories high.

The Kitchen
A very large area encompasses the kitchen and dining. Heavily beamed ceilings, windows to the view, and French doors to the porch open the kitchen to the outdoors. The gas grill connections are conveniently located on the porch. Much thought went into the design and function of the kitchen.

Fun in the snow in Maggie Valley... April 7, 2009

(Maggie Valley, NC) A fresh blanket of snow has covered western North Carolina mountains. We have seen snow and much colder temperatures in April, recently in 2007. But it always seems to surprise us here in the Southern Appalachians (emphasis Southern). It is beautiful.

Is it also a good excuse to work from home today??? There is four inches at the 3500 foot elevation, which could make it challenging to get to town. But realistically we know that travelling will be fine once we reach the main roads; they will be clear and safe.

It is still drifting down, so for a little longer I will imagine that we are snowed in! I like that thought.
