Where: Montana

What: Personal Residence

Solution: 1×6 and 1×8 horizontal/vertical ship lap siding, board and batten vertical siding, and Douglas Fir Timbers (beams). Deck posts and railing to compliment siding and beams. 3″ rafter tails tie well with the timber elements.

Product: ranchwood™ wood siding and timbers. Texture: circle sawn.

One of our latest projects takes us back to Montana to the beautiful mountain town of Whitefish. This build utilizes Montana Timber Products ranchwood™ product line to create a very unique fusion between traditional mountain rustic and the southwestern stucco style one would find in Arizona and New Mexico.

The aesthetic 1×6 sheathing, 3×8 rafters, 1×6 deck railing, and Barn Series timbers all feature the rustic circle sawn texture offered in the Montana Timber Products line.

The deck railing provides a detailed perspective of the circle sawn texture, replicating primitive milling processes. The Montana Timber Products ranchwood™, AquaFir™, and  ranchwood™-weathered product lines are an excellent reclaimed barn wood alternative. Each product line offers color and texture choice, and are cut to order, resulting in a 5-10% waste factor compared to 35-40% with reclaimed.

Similar to the roof sheathing, the half inch spaced soffit pictured above contrasts nicely with the 1×8 vertical ship lap. All Montana Timber Products’ prefinished wood siding utilizes Seal-Once, a 100% NO VOC waterproofer with a 10 year limited warranty against water ingress.
