Design + Build: Solomon Estates Timber Frame Addition

Winner of 2021 HBAWV Best of West Virginia Building Award for Remodeling. Rising Sun was honored to be chosen to design and build a 2400SF 2-story addition to connect a detached garage and residence.

The windy location needed an enclosed space with lots of access to the outdoors for entertaining guests. This addition features large decks and patios, high ceilings, a custom dual-sided stoned wood burning fireplace, a full kitchen, and a Doug fir timber frame.

The basement features a wine storage room and tasting area with walnut lined elevator and a garage for lawn care and implements. Rising Sun used ICF foundation and SIPS walls to make the structure extremely energy efficient. Additionally, we added standing seam and synthetic slate shingle roofing. We made repairs and timber frame upgrades to the existing entrance and siding/stone so the whole house would match and gave it all the same paint color. Lots of effort was put into matching the roof/soffit/fascia/windows/paint color.
