Craftsman Timber Frame

Helpful Information

Suwannee River's Craftsman Style Home is a balanced mixture of Log and Timber Frame construction.

The Craftsman Style Home offers exposed timber cathedral ceilings to help provide you with an open feeling. The roof system and supports on the interior of the home is a post and beam system which will provide unique features not found on other types of homes. The walls are designed to be 10 feet tall to allow for extra ceiling height.

On the exterior, we offer western red cedar wall coverings to offer a new and exciting look for your new home. The Craftsman Style Timber Frame will give you the versatility you are looking for by allowing you to apply your taste to your home, both interior and exterior. You will be able to use your thoughts and dreams to choose items that are pleasing to you - this alone will distinguish your home from the rest! Suwannee River Log Homes is an architectural custom design company that can design any home to meet your needs.
