This 1404 sqft living space new design version of our famous Lone Tower design will be built by Serendipity log homes in Alaska this coming year.

It is bigger than original with over 700 sq.ft. footprint and will be using massive Sitka Spruce logs 19” diameter midspan.

An interesting feature is the Viking (Norway) foundation that is a log post and beam sitting on concrete pier or large stones for lack of concrete in the building area and permafrost issues.

The stairs entry to main floor is covered with lean to roof to deflect snow away from stairs in winter.

Chains are hung from eaves corners to channel rain water down like directed mini water falls.

The main floor has the bedrooms and top floor is the public area with kitchen, dining and great room for a 360 degree stunning view of the Alaskan mountain range in McCarthy.
