Currently dismantling this stoic old farmhouse outside of Stayton. The family dreamed of restoration but as the years passed salvage came to be the better option. The house had long been abandoned and was missing just about every door and window. A large hole near the chimney had been letting water in and vandals had left a mark or two here and there. A fallen tree had taken down a shed adjacent to the house but left a bit of weathered gray wood left standing to salvage. A small garage on the property had also seen the end of it's days as a useable structure and came down, but a lovely old horse/pig barn ( depending on who you ask) will remain standing as it's got lots of life left to it.
Expecting to salvage 1x12, 4.75" circle sawn lap wall cladding, 6" weathered gray lap, 2x6, 2x8 and possibly some floor material. The small garage had good siding and framing and a bit of useable skip sheathing. Love that people see the beauty in this old wood and that we're able to save the pieces and find a new life for them!
