The siding planks were cut from the floor joists of the original house which was milled from the land itself. They were carefully removed and transported down the road to a neighbor’s sawmill to be reshaped into what you see here. If left untreated, they will continue to age to a beautiful silver patina The result is a tight, energy efficient house combining the best of old and new.
