Heirs of the Parson family proudly offer the following details about the home that set it apart! Jon and Margaret Parsons home was featured in Montana Designs Magazine published in 1996. The article is framed and hanging in the entryway. Details: the front prow window framing and trusses were made of fir logged and band-saw milled by Montana native Larry Keele. The timber framed loft floor beams above the kitchen were painstakingly dovetailed. Choice Ponderosa pine trees were logged off the property! Milled into lumber on-site. Utilized as doorway trim and hand-crafted bathroom cabinets. Jon Parsons himself participated in the project, constructing the deck and railing from redwood and cedar. He researched and hunted up quality material to build his dream home. He and his wife designed their etched glass panel in the front door. Hurd Windows and patio doors were then and are today top-of-the-line. Specific to 1995- Hurd had heat mirror technology SUSPENDING ONE OR MORE LIGHTWEIGHT POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE (PET) FILMS INSIDE THE AIRSPACE OF A DUAL PANE INSULATING GLASS UNIT TO CREATE MULTIPLE SUPER- INSULATING CAVITIES achieving a center of glass value of R-20. The film is coated with nanoscale metal particles that reflect heat back to its source, improving insulation, blocking UV rays, and reducing noise. With a total unit R-value of R-9, it's actually 33 percent lighter than triple-pane products. Fireplace Rocks came from Chief Cliff, near Big Arm.
