This home in Bulverde, Texas is not your typical hill country property.It took 5 years of planning, over 7 months to build in a Canadian log yard, and three 18 wheelers carrying 120 tons of Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir logs to bring it here. The logs are fully hand scribed, meaning they were custom fit together without needing chinking, giving the home that lodge style construction. The foundation was not an afterthought. It was designed to hold the weight of the logs and capture a 31 mile view toward downtown San Antonio. Inside, almost everything was chosen or custom built for the home: the red leather seating, the oversized dining table, the cedar bed, the mesquite front door, and even the 14 foot cypress bar that had to be specially milled in Leakey, Texas. This property has been loved for 20 years, and now it is ready for its next chapter. If you have ever wanted a Texas hill country lodge with real craftsmanship, real views, and a real story, this is one you need to see.
