According to the agent's remarks, for about the first ten years after construction, the new wood may produce cracking or "baki" sounds as it settles. This is now reported to have calmed down considerably. The wood is still alive, breathing and helping to regulate humidity and absorb odours. You can enjoy applying oil stain yourself to bring out the wood's character, or you can simply appreciate the changing charm of the wood as it is. As it is a home built to last, you can fully enjoy the log house lifestyle.
The house is equipped with a three-burner hob system kitchen, a system bathroom with a shower and re-heating function, a washroom with a shower-equipped vanity, a toilet with a warm-water bidet seat, and an indoor laundry area. Additional features include underfloor storage, air conditioning, a south-facing balcony, a wood deck, and double-paned windows with thick wooden frames. The property sits on a 293.21 sqm plot in a elevated location, featuring two generous garden spaces suitable for family use or even a vegetable patch. Parking is available for up to four vehicles, and an external storage shed is included.
