Our Plan of the Month: The Edson

This 2029 SF log home design is being constructed from three 100 year old log buildings.  The footprint of the building along with the window and door locations were predetermined due to this, so it made for an interesting challenge to fit everything in an efficient design.  The main floor has an open country style kitchen and dining area with a living room off of one side of the house and a mudroom off of the other side.  The house has two baths, a powder on the main floor and a full bath upstairs along with three bedrooms.
