Choose Your Mountain Home Style!

Timber Frame Homes: Our clients can choose from a variety of timber frame home styles. Whether building full timber frame structures, hybrid log and timber frame homes or just incorporating decorative timber frame elements, timber frame houses are growing in popularity.

Mountain Accent Log & Timber Frame Homes: Get the look and feel of traditional log homes and timber frame homes without the necessity of building a full log or timber structure.

Handcrafted Log Homes: Nothing compares to the beauty and artistry of a handcrafted log home. Our handcrafted log homes are typically designed with full hand hewed log walls, ridges, trusses & purlins. Each log is individually selected, hand cut and intricately placed.

Milled Log Homes: Our choice of milled log home profiles and diverse selection of smooth and hand hewn surfaces provides creative freedom during the design of your unique log home.

Post and Beam Homes: Exposed cross beams. Rustic, handcrafted log posts. Stately yet elegant timber frame. For hundreds of years, post and beam construction has been used to create one-of-a-kind homes. Still today, many prefer the unique look and feel of a post and beam home. Over the past 20 years, PrecisionCraft and Mountain Architects have designed and built an eclectic mix of post and beam homes across the United States.

The Caribou Design Continues to Earn Awards & Accoloades

http://loghomes.org/images/member_resized/Caribou.jpg


The Caribou home design first landed in the limelight in 2007. Created by Mountain Architects, PrecisionCraft’s award-winning team of log home designers, the design earned “Best Single-Level Floor Plan” by Log Home Design magazine.

After that auspicious start, the Caribou has remained one of the company’s most popular designs, says Jim Young, president of PrecisionCraft in Meridian, ID. “Since we created this design in 2007, 15 of our clients have opted to use this design as the basis for their dream home. This year we have five more clients who are building variations of the design. People are drawn to its healthy mix of beauty and functionality.”

The Caribou is also this month’s Featured Home at www.loghomes.org, the official website of the Log Homes Council, which is part of the National Association of Home Builders.

The Caribou continued to attract rave reviews. In 2008, the plan was once again recognized as “Best of the Best” in Log Home Living’s 10th Annual Floor Plan Contest. The panel of judges favored the design for its single-level floor plan living, split bedroom layout, integration with the outdoors, and use of a massive three-fireplace structure.

More accolades arrived in 2010. Katherine Schuster at Log Home Living recognized the Caribou’s unique features. “The angled entry porch adds a unique architectural element to the home from the moment you set foot inside the door. The rest of the home is just as captivating,” Schuster said.

“The communal areas blend together seamlessly, and the transition to outdoor living space is just as effortless, providing an ideal setup for entertaining,” Schuster said. “A three-fireplace structure that can be enjoyed from the living room, outdoor patio or master bedroom extends the cohesiveness to the bedroom wing. The home is cozy and intimate without being cramped. It will serve its owners well, for many years to come.”

Katherine’s prediction held true. Today, PrecisionCraft’s Caribou has inspired custom log homes across the United States – from handcrafted to timber frame to Mountain Accent, each home is unique. Modified to match each client’s unique style, build location and budget, the Caribou dream has been realized in Ohio, California, Wyoming, Washington, Pennsylvania, Arizona, West Virginia, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Texas and Colorado.
