The Steamboat Springs Timber Frame Home

Naturecraft Custom Homes

This full timber frame custom home was designed to take advantage of its stunning mountainside setting near the Steamboat Springs ski area. Positioned to capture expansive views and embrace the natural terrain, the residence reflects the craftsmanship and architectural character that define Colorado mountain living. Featuring six bedrooms and a private guest suite above the garage, the home offers ample space for family gatherings, vacation stays, and year-round mountain enjoyment. Every design choice—from the structural layout to the material selection—supports durability, comfort, and long-term performance in a high-elevation environment.

 

At the heart of this home is its authentic timber frame, built using old-world construction techniques rarely seen in modern residential projects. True mortise-and-tenon joinery, secured with hand-driven oak pegs, showcases exceptional craftsmanship and pays tribute to traditional timber framing methods. Once assembled, the structural frame was enclosed with high-efficiency SIP panels, ensuring outstanding insulation and energy performance throughout the year. The combination of handcrafted timber construction and advanced building technologies results in a mountain home that is both timeless in appearance and highly efficient—perfectly suited for the Steamboat region’s climate and lifestyle.
