When it comes to carving and designed from wood, I can make a stick somewhat pointy, and that's about it. There's others that take things to the extreme, and that's just the case with this incredible home in the foothills of Ashland, Oregon. It's called the Shining Hand Ranch, and it's currently going for 6 million bucks. It's a truly whimsical and fantasy-like home that's like no other, and was completely custom created by local artists.
As you wander around the giant 8,900 square foot home you'll be met with tons of intricate hand-made carvings and creations, including the central staircase, the front door, surfaces in kitchen, and even the floor is made with wavy natural wooden floor boards that look like a flowing stream. Not only that but the floors are also heated in the winter and cooled in the summer using geothermal energy.
The incredible artisan mansion that's filled with wood carvings took years to make, as the arched front door alone took 1.5 years to carve from Brazilian mahogany. Besides the amazing wood carvings in the home, it also sits on over 700 acres of land, and actually has just 2 bedrooms and 3 baths as the rest of the space is just open living areas.
I think it's safe to say that if you love nature or a natural wood look in your home, you're going to love this incredible ranch home in Ashland Oregon. Be sure to check out some of the amazing details in the pictures below to see just how intricate the wood carvings really are!
