Have I mentioned yet how much I enjoy participating the many events for prospective log home owners that log home builders have throughout the year?
Yesterday, we attended another one. It was an Honest Abe Open House at the home of Todd and Kim.
They built this home themselves and acted as their own G.C.
(Brave souls. We’ve considered it, but talked ourselves out of it after hearing some of the “horror stories” from others who’ve been there, done that.)
Overall, it took them about a year from start to finish. And this event marked one full year that they have lived in this home with their three children.
From the Honest Abe Open House brochure:
This beautiful D-log style home resembles the “Castlerock” floorplan.
Here are some pictures:
[Thanks, Todd and Kim for showing us around your awesome home!]
We’ve gone through the entire process of designing and planning every single detail of our dream log home! We have the blueprints… and the land… and the contractor… and the goal for our log cabin home to be our retirement home. Before you build (or buy) a log home, I have a slew of helpful tips for you — to plan, design, build, decorate, and maintain your very own rustic modern log home. When I’m not fine-tuning the log home of my dreams, you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve written nearly 300 articles for current and future log home owners on this site! Many of them have over 50K shares.
