Description

This log cabin is one of only a few full-scribe log homes in Tampa Bay. This home features a full-scribe log-style design. The logs are stacked horizontally and used to create the exterior walls and many of the interior walls. Each log has a hand-cut groove to cut into its underside so it can be fit and secured to the log below. Full-scribe log homes offer many benefits. One of their advantages is that they are a strong structure and can withstand almost anything Mother Nature throws at them. Full-Scribe log-cabins have been documented to survive many hurricanes, including category 2 Hurricane Ike in Texas. When full-scribe log homes are gasketed properly and fit together with the notches, they are considered very energy efficient. The log walls are considered a finished product and do not require siding, insulation, or drywall. Because of the additional labor and logs required, full-scribe log houses are traditionally the most costly to build. Due to rising labor and material costs, just the building cost for the house would be significantly more than the asking price for the house and land. This is a unique opportunity for someone to buy an authentic log cabin. It is situated on 1.5 acres and has 135 feet of lakefront to Lake Burrell. Lake Burrell is a private 24-acre lake.
