Modern Timber Home Living in Tennessee


Back in August, we featured a story on our client Wade Max's journey to building his timber frame home in Tennessee. The Max's started the construction for their new timber frame in late February 2011 and moved into their new home in December. There were weather delays along the way, but that didn't stop the couple from completing their home by the end of the year!

The Max's home features 2,712 square feet and one floor living with a second floor loft that overlooks the first floor. The first floor features a large open concept space with the great room, kitchen and dining room open to one another. To the right of the great room is a game room and den, as well as the luxurious master bedroom suite equipped with a full bathroom, spacious walk-in closet and laundry area. Patio doors off of the dining room lead to a large deck and is the perfect place to enjoy a view of the pond nearby.

The Max's chose to furnish and decorate their new timber frame with modern decor. Timber frames lend themselves to all architectural and decor styles. With the home's open concept layout, modern living was easily achieved. Check out the photos below!



 This timber frame kitchen features modern cabinetry and lighting. A walk-in pantry is also located off of the kitchen and is perfect for storing extra pots, pans and dry food. The modern bar stools add a chic style to this kitchen. Check out these similar steel wire bar stools on Amazon!


The open concept layout among the kitchen, dining room and great room allows the homeowners to easily entertain a crowd.


This timber frame great room features stylish furniture with simple lines. Cabinets and built in glass shelves were created for the media space. A contemporary gas fireplace will keep the space warm on chilly evenings.
