Antique Walden Log Home at Lookout Highlands
A gated community in the north Georgia mountains
This house is just over 2000 square feet and is done right. There is not a speck of sheetrock in the entire house. Walls and ceilings are covered with weathered barn wood and painted boards. Antique heart pine flooring is on the floors and stairs, except for upstairs bedrooms, which is at the owner’s discretion. All the interior doors are poplar veneer over a solid core, and the hardware is heavy cast bronze.
The shoals are a five minute hike through mountain laurel and hemlock. It is truly a wonderland.
A deep covered porch wraps around three sides of this house, and opens up to a large deck off the dining room. A stacked stone fire place is a popular feature, making outdoor living possible almost year round.
Kolbe & Kolbe windows and doors are used throughout the house and are simulated divided lite for an authentic look.
The foundation is stacked mountain stone.
Weathered barn wood is used in the eves. The porch railing is made from tobacco poles, while support posts are reclaimed hand hewn beams.
Downstairs, the study on the front of the house could be used as an extra bedroom. It has a large closet, a window seat covered in heart pine and hand-hewn log walls. A full bath is right outside the door.
In the foyer, a massive beam and exposed corner work add infinite interest. Other details in this area are a coat closet made out of weathered barn wood, heart pine flooring and reclaimed log walls.
The family room has a substantial hand-hewn beam supporting the second floor. A stacked stone fireplace anchors the room.
The kitchen is open to the dining area and family room. Antique heart pine covers the countertops, providing a warm, low-maintenance surface. Painted white boards cover the ceiling, while hand-hewn beams provide support as well as intrigue. Wooden cabinets are painted and glazed and the appliances are stainless steel. A bank of Kolbe French doors bring the outdoors in.
