A compact mountain cabin built around a tall stone fireplace, with a hand-built stair, reclaimed-wood dining, and a kitchen sized for the couple who lives there.
A small cabin done well is harder than a big house done with room to spare. There’s nowhere to hide a misalignment, and every surface gets seen close-up. We built this one as a retreat for a couple who knew exactly what they wanted: a stone fireplace that anchors the whole interior, a stair built by hand from rough stock, and a dining space framed in reclaimed wood.
The kitchen is sized for two people who cook together, with stone counters chosen on a site walk and cabinetry that ties into the woodwork in the dining area. It’s a small house with no shortage of presence.
