On occasion, I like to feature a unique home that may or may not knock your socks off. Today’s home is a fabulous cabin in the woods nestled among tall trees on a Maine island that I think everyone will enjoy.

The windows and wood work throughout the home is beyond amazing! With views like this it feels as though you’re living outdoors without having to battle any elements like rain or wind. Even though the ceiling is high, the kitchen and breakfast nook feel warm and cozy due to the rich tones of the woodwork and the calming gray-blue paint on the cabinets.

The dining room is equally amazing with dappled sunlight shining through the trees. Notice how the large windows flip up for maximum fresh air. The furnishings are just as beautiful as the room itself, complementing the architecture as opposed to fighting it.

The staircase is rich and rustic at the same time. I love a bare naked wooden stairway in any home, but this one is truly special with all the grain pattern of the wood showing through. I wonder what’s behind that tiny door on the left?

There’s no shortage of windows and natural light in this extraordinary cabin in the woods. The eye can see angles of the home from a variety of vantage points.

The cabin’s sun room continues the architectural theme of wooden beams and over-sized windows. Special care was taken not to remove the surrounding trees and it looks like the home grew up in the middle of the wooded island.

Imagine what it would be like to sleep in this bedroom with the starry sky just outside the wall of custom windows! I like that the shingling is repeated inside the house, adding texture and interest to the room. And the wood floor is sheer perfection, in my opinion.
