wooden house

Log cabin home

A wooden house is a dwelling constructed primarily from timber or lumber.

The term distinguishes such structures from those built of brick, stone, concrete, or other materials.

Wooden houses are common in regions with abundant forests and appear in styles from log cabins to Victorian clapboard homes: The old wooden house creaked in the wind.
