Can you imagine having this fireplace in your kitchen? What an inspiring place to spend a little time. Brown Masonry found reclaimed granite posts which they placed from ceiling to floor and infilled between with more locally sourced granite and fieldstone off the property. Even the firebox is stone!! One of the larger beams we had from a barn dismatled stretches the entire way across this part of the kitchen landing on 2 - 10"x12" hand hewn posts. And then there is the view!

Here is a project I am extremely proud to have been in charge of. A special thankyou to for a beautiful design and to all of the amazing subcontractors and especially to my main crew Buck Lafogg, Joe Kreig and Nathan Heberts who prove over and over that true craftsmanship is still alive. On projects like this you spend a tremendous amount of time working with the homeowner and through that process we have become close friends . I would also like to thank for such amazing photos. Here is a list of contractors who should all be very proud of the job they did here. Tyler Electric, David Chaves Excavation, John Maynard, Versatile drywall

Here is a close up of the timber frame sugar house. There is a loft on the back third and the rest is cathedral showing off the custom built post and beam steam vent. All overhead doors on both the sugarhouse and barn were custom sheathed using the same material as the buildings.
