Embracing the Outdoors: A Nature-Inspired Retreat
Designed for embracing the outdoors, this home creates a natural connection between indoor and outdoor living. The homeowners wanted their home to feel like an extension of the surrounding landscape, incorporating a spacious screened-in porch, plenty of plants and nature-inspired décor throughout the interior.
Large Marvin Modern windows and doors help bring that vision to life, filling the home with natural light and offering views of the outdoors. The screened-in porch provides an inviting space to enjoy the surrounding scenery, while Trex Transcend decking in Spiced Rum, ADI RailFX horizontal cable rail and a ScreenEZE screen system create a comfortable and stylish outdoor living space.
The home’s exterior pairs Vesta Steel siding in Ironstone and Walnut with a standing seam steel roof from Long Creek Steel, creating a clean, modern look that complements the natural setting. Inside, A1 style stile and rail interior doors with Euro jambs from Bayer Built Woodworks add warmth and character, while flush SBAA exterior walk doors complete the home’s modern aesthetic.
Built by Central Construction Inc., this project brings together thoughtful design, natural elements and spaces made for enjoying the outdoors. Hilltop Lumber was proud to supply the materials for the project, with KC Franson serving as the Hilltop salesman. Photography by Kayla Fearing, Director of Marketing at Hilltop Lumber.
