New Photos of Solar Timber Frame Home in Oregon!

We just received the pictures of our photo shoot we had at Davis Frame's Pacific Northwest Independent Representatives  Doug and Leanne's Smiths home! This Sisters, Oregon home is truly beautiful and offers many energy efficient features. It is hard to not be wowed by this timber frame home. The home features 2,850 SF with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The open layout between the great room, dining room and kitchen allows for the Smith's to entertain their family and friends when they visit Sisters.

The timber frame home is also completely off-grid and qualified Platinum Earth Advantage! To see some of the homes energy efficient features, see below:

• Oregon-grown Douglas Fir timber frame structure with old-world mortise/tenon joinery
