This 2100 square foot rancher comes complete with optional loft above the foyer. It was originally designed with a great mountain view in central Colorado.

Some interesting design solutions to notice are:
• All of the rooms have large windows directly to the view at the back of the log home. • To minimize walking time from the garage to the kitchen there is a short cut through the pantry.
• The roof was designed with manufactured trusses including scissor trusses for vaulted   areas (great room, foyer, master suite and dining room) at a much lower construction cost.
• The walkout basement boasts 4 more bedrooms, 2 baths and a games room for a large family or for entertaining friends.

This design's main focus is to maximize exposure to the view from all living space.
