Rustic Hunting Cabin
Hartsburg, Mo.
The clients bought this authentic hunting cabin on a bluff near Ashland, Missouri, in a state of disrepair.
To create a home the couple would enjoy into retirement, Peckham Architecture updated the kitchen and bathroom and added a master bedroom and closet with a basement workspace beneath.
The master addition and new deck offer dramatic views stretching miles down the Missouri River.
For energy efficiency, we installed new thermal insulation and a Mitsubishi heat pump.
We also replaced the siding and roof and designed a freestanding garage to match the rustic style of the cabin.
From the clients:
We had no idea what it took to turn our vacation cabin into a home when we called Nick. He was at the Chicago airport when we called. He always answered our calls.
We were novices, but he guided us to the home we imagined. He worked with us and didn’t tell us what to do. We are very happy with the results. Our beautiful site was preserved, and the house is very comfortable and beautiful.
“I’m a green architect” were Nick’s first words to us, and he lived up to his introduction.
— Dave and Chris Rechtien/Glaser
