The Beauty of Timber Frame Homes

There’s something truly special about a handcrafted timber frame home, and at the heart of its beauty lies the majestic Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir timbers. These stunning woods are not just structural elements; they define the character, durability, and warmth of every Cascade Handcrafted creation.

Western Red Cedar is renowned for its rich, warm tones and exceptional resistance to decay. It boasts natural oils that protect it from moisture and pests, making it an ideal choice for timber frame structures that stand the test of time. Beyond its durability, Cedar exudes a sense of rustic elegance, transforming any home into a welcoming retreat nestled within nature.

Douglas Fir, on the other hand, offers impressive strength and versatility. Its straight grain and warm reddish hues bring a timeless aesthetic to timber homes while ensuring structural integrity. It’s a favorite among timber frame builders for its ability to support intricate designs while providing unparalleled reliability.

Cascade Handcrafted Timber Homes carefully selects and crafts each piece, ensuring that every beam, post, and truss enhances the home’s beauty and resilience. Whether nestled in the mountains or overlooking a serene lake, these homes become a true sanctuary, blending harmoniously with the surrounding landscape.

Choosing Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about embracing tradition, craftsmanship, and nature’s finest materials in a home that will be cherished for generations.
