This home on Lake Rabun brings a touch of the Rocky Mountains to Lake Rabun nestled in the North Georgia Mountains. The barn wood exterior, timber truss work, cedar shake roof, minimal stone and corten steel gives the home a unique, but familiar design to Lake Rabun. The patina of the reclaimed barn wood and steel roof give the home an instantly aged look that feels as if the home has always been part of the landscape. The design offers many hidden surprises such as a hidden tap room reminiscent of a speak easy, interior windows that bring light into landlocked rooms, and unique features specially designed for the home owner. The home is sited upon a hill that overlooks the lake, but the placement of large windows, sliding and bi fold door systems and vaulted porches bring the lake closer to the owner so that they feel directly connected to the lake below while enjoying the view above and beyond the water.
