Rustic Renovations
The personality and profession of the owner, an art teacher and artist, are reflected everywhere in this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home near Timberlee Resort in Leelanau County. Rustic board-and-batten siding on the red-painted exterior echoes a farmhouse or barn and is complemented by a covered concrete porch with a culvert post and a corrugated metal roof. Corian countertops and eco-friendly bamboo floors provide a clean backdrop for the unique 1,454 square-foot interior, which boasts a goat fence staircase rail, built-in shelves of Dakota burl, a curved, checkerboard-patterned plywood mantle, and a sunflower-seed/acrylic kitchen backsplash.
